If the contemporary red lanterns are any indication, Monsoon Café & Restaurant knows how to add a splash of colour to traditional fare. Asian, western and local flavours get the modern touch at breakfast, lunch and dinner, with the spicy Laksa being the most popular and authentic dish. If you prefer meat and vegetables, you can pick your favourites and watch the chef prepare them to your liking in the open kitchen.
Zen brings its renowned contemporary Cantonese cuisine to Beijing. Known throughout Hong Kong, London, Shanghai, Mexico and the Gold Coast for its decidedly modern décor, Zen delights the palate with uncompromisingly authentic flavours.
CupofChino brings the best of a New York-style deli and coffee bar to Beijing with grab-and-go breakfast items complemented by rich cappuccinos. You may find yourself stopping by for a doughnut on the way to a meeting or sightseeing tour, or settling in to read, work or surf the Internet as you enjoy pastries, freshly baked bread or a slice of cheesecake.
The Steak Exchange may be tucked away behind the wine showcase, but there’s nothing timid about this modern steakhouse’s hearty fare. Generous cuts of Australian beef dominate the menu, with Australian Rack of Lamb, US Turkey Steak and Norwegian Salmon Steak among the other choices. In spite of the large portions, you’ll want to leave room for the indulgent oversized desserts.
