Mercado
In Spain, “Mercado” means market. In InterContinental Shenzhen, it means a colourful variety of Asian and Western dishes served in a setting inspired by the Plaza Mayor, the principle square in Madrid. The à la carte menu and lavish buffet in this relaxed eatery offer options for lunch and dinner such as the classic Seafood Paella and a choice of decadent desserts.

La Parrilla
La Parrilla is the hands-down choice when you yearn for a casual lunch or an early dinner in Shenzhen’s great outdoors. The open-air grill kitchen is situated so the pool and accompanying natural sand beach provide the backdrop, while mouth-watering entrées such as pizza and Barbecue Squid steal the spotlight. La Parrilla is also available for private dinner parties and lively poolside barbecues.

Coriander
Coriander chef Sutthaporn demonstrates her culinary prowess with Thai and Vietnamese specialties cooked in a fine traditional way using fresh ingredients and authentic seasonings. Not to be confused with fusion cuisine, Coriander’s dishes are a blend of pure and original flavours that distinguish it as one of Shenzhen’s best “real” Southeast Asian restaurants.

Alenha
Alenha, named for the cooking process that uses timber-borne flames, sparks the appetite with imported prime meats served skewered and artistically carved at your table. The authentic Brazilian experience begins with a hearty beef stock soup followed by a trip (or trips) to the elaborate salad bar. More than 10 courses of sliced beef and barbecue delights are presented sans menu in the main dining room or on the outdoor terrace. For the uninitiated, the Picanha cut of beef is a must.

Pipette
Pipette gives fine Continental cuisine a touch of modernity with a funky French Art Deco setting, a spirited show kitchen and prized vintages from the wine cellar. Traditional and chef-inspired dishes emerge from the classic French Molteni stove to be served in the main dining room or al fresco. Three lower level private rooms highlight the heritage of various wines, champagnes and cognacs.
