GRAND Mercure Hongqiao Shanghai
This summer, L'Atrium Restaurant at Grand Mercure Hongqiao is adding a series of fresh and delightful gourmet salmon dishes to its Grand Dinner Buffet for a romantic rendezvous under the moonlight.
The executive chef is selecting fresh salmon imported from Norway and creating a wide range of salmon dishes that are inspired by his travels around the world.
Start off with light appetizers such as salmon maki, salmon tartar or warm salmon nicoise salad - salmon in a bed of lush green lettuce, sweet tomatoes and vinaigrette sauce.
For something more substantial the main course selection includes salmon steak, salmon quiche and grilled salmon medallion with fine herbs and citrus butter sauce. For Asian food lovers there is salmon fish head curry, salmon and oyster gratin, mini salmon skewers with condiments and more.
Diners can experience the rich, juicy and totally healthy salmon in every possible way.
Apart from the salmon specialties, the buffet is also filled with the usual sumptuous international features such as pasta, mustard-rolled chicken, roasted sirloin or cheese platter.
Capping off the magnificent dinner spread at the dessert station is a sweet medley of chocolate mousse, brownies, tarts and assorted pastries including cookies-and-cream cheesecake, as well as banana coconut pudding, mango pudding and berries compote.
