Surabaya Moments: Through Travelers' Eyes

📶 I have to say, Beijing is becoming increasingly international. Not only can you taste delicacies from all over, but you can also enjoy a romantic Indonesian feast right away.
Recently, the chef from the JW Marriott Surabaya traveled thousands of miles to present the authentic flavors of the "Thousand Islands" nation. The Indonesian Food Festival has officially kicked off at the JW Kitchen buffet restaurant.
The restaurant's environment is elegant and grand, adorned with many Indonesian-style decorations. Immersing yourself here feels like being in Southeast Asia. The overall service is attentive and thorough, making for a very comfortable dining experience. The joy of the occasion is evident as guests mingle and dine 😃.
.
🎈 Indonesian cuisine
Meat slow-cooked for a long time in a blend of coconut milk and spices is tender and flavorful, with rich, multi-layered spices!
The satay skewers are incredibly fragrant and paired with a signature peanut dipping sauce, filling your mouth with Southeast Asian flavors...
There's also Indonesian fried noodles, gado-gado salad, and coconut rice, all packed with tangy, spicy, and aromatic flavors.
.
🧜🏻‍♀️ High-quality seafood with plenty of options
The exquisite plating far surpasses that of ordinary seafood restaurants.
The seafood is served on a bed of crushed ice to keep it fresh.
Fresh live shrimp, abalone, oysters, crab 🦀, and salmon.
The hammered silver pot contains a clear scallop broth.
After poaching, pair it with the restaurant's special seafood dipping sauce for a fresh, sweet taste that lingers on the palate...
.
🍰 Western-style desserts
The desserts at JW Kitchen deserve a spot on Beijing's "must-eat" list.
They offer a wide variety, beautifully and temptingly plated.
Each one is delicate, exquisite, and delicious.
The chocolate tart is packed with rich cocoa flavor—mellow and thick, with a slight bitterness upon the first bite that leaves a sweet aftertaste.
It's sweet but not cloying, perfect for those who love desserts.
.
📶 Outstanding five-star hotel quality
A great chance to check off various classic Indonesian dishes in one go—perfect for gatherings with friends or intimate dates.
The food festival is a limited-time event ending on the 16th of this month.
Those interested can book in advance to experience a unique Southeast Asian culinary journey 😋.
.
❤️ TIPS:
🎈 There are many international diners, reflecting a vibrant, thriving economy.
🎈 Window seats with a view require advance booking.
