Hyatt has done an amazing job with its Made in China experiences. We had a fantastic culinary experience at this high end restaurant. You walk in and are immediately exposed to the kitchen wonders. On the right, Peking Duck is getting baked and smoked in the open fire oven. A little further down the busy wok kitchen is at work on a variety of stir fries.
