Authentic Northern Flavours
North Palace presents traditional Shandong, Beijing and Inner Mongolia dishes, based on timeless recipes and cooking methods, and featuring ingredients imported from northern China. Dramatic open kitchens allow for an immersive experience as chefs roast organic whole baby lamb with Mongolian spices over imposing open fire pits. Sixty Beijing-bred ducks are roasted every day in elaborate lychee wood-burning ovens before being thinly sliced tableside and rolled with condiments in steamed pancakes or sesame buns. Meat, vegetable skewers and flatbreads are cooked in a genuine tandoor oven while a variety of hand-pulled noodles and dumplings are made fresh to order.
In additional to traditional roast meats, other signature dishes at North Palace include braised sea cucumber with yam in leek sauce; chilled live Dalian abalone with sea cucumber and razor clams; roast lamb cutlets with Aksu apple; charcoal grilled slow-cooked US beef rib; Xinjiang-style roast turbot; traditional Lanzhou-style “la mian” with braised sliced beef and turnips; Beijing-style crispy prawns with nuts and sweet and sour sauce; and candied hawthorn with coated sugar.
For a taste of the imperial cuisine of the Qing dynasty, guests can opt for the ‘Imperial Feast’. Modelled on the famed ‘Manchu-Han Imperial Feast’, the extravagant menu features a selection of delectable welcome tea and sweets, appetisers, soup, cold and hot dishes and barbecue. Highlights include ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ soup with boneless fish head; roasted Beijing duck; and braised mince pork ball and sliced roasted pork belly with pickled cabbage and chrysanthemum. Further elevating the gastronomic experience is a prized Chinese baijiu – 30-year Forbidden City Moutai – to perfectly complement the delicacies. The menu is priced at MOP 688* per person, minimum ten persons (reservation required one day in advance).
