hotel borobudur introduces<br />
new master chef<br />
Spearheading Teratai<br />
Restaurant at Hotel<br />
Borobudur is Chef Zhang<br />
Xiu Lan, who assumed<br />
the post of Master Chef of the<br />
luxury Cantonese eatery in<br />
March 2011. She brings topnotch<br />
know-how and experience<br />
from her previous position at<br />
Hu Bin Mei Zhi Lo in the Yuyuan<br />
Garden in Shanghai, where<br />
she worked for 20 years. Her<br />
expertise in the field bodes<br />
positive auguries for her<br />
career in Teratai. Her forte<br />
is her handmade Xiao Long<br />
Bao – steamed dumplings<br />
filled with vegetables, meat<br />
and soup – as she is able to<br />
achieve skin of a silken yet<br />
firm consistency; and harmony<br />
between the sweet and<br />
savoury elements of the dumpling.<br />
Her skillfully-prepared noodle<br />
dishes and Dim Sum are also to be<br />
revered. The lobby-level restaurant<br />
is open for lunch (11:30 a.m.-2:30<br />
p.m.) and dinner (6:30 p.m.-10:30<br />
p.m.) seven days a week.<br />
Hotel Borobudur, nicknamed <strong>Jakarta</strong>’s<br />
‘Grand old lady of hospitality’ features<br />
695 guest rooms and suites. The hotel’s<br />
five restaurants serve Italian, Chinese,<br />
Indonesian and Japanese cuisine.<br />
