1 Shandong's classic Lu cuisine

Country Kitchen restaurant at the Rosewood Beijing hotel that features Northern Chinese comfort fare in the ambience of a rustic-chic Chinese village is paying homage to Shandong's classic Lu cuisine on its menu until Sept 20.

Lu cuisine is regarded as one of China's most influential culinary schools and the progenitor of northeastern cuisines. To make the dishes as authentic as possible, Leo Chai, chef de cuisine of Country Kitchen, paid a special visit to Shandong and explored traditional restaurants and markets to familiarize himself with the authentic cooking culture and traditional local ingredients.
