Seen, Chinese restaurant in Munich, Germany
Seen is a Chinese restaurant on Augustenstrasse serving dishes from Sichuan province, prepared by Chef Jianguo Zhang using regional ingredients and traditional cooking methods. The menu features both classic recipes and seasonal specials rooted in authentic regional cooking.
The restaurant is rooted in Chef Zhang's childhood in Chengdu, where he developed his understanding of traditional Sichuan cooking techniques. These formative years shaped his approach to the complex flavors and preparation methods that define his cooking today.
The restaurant draws its name from a Chinese character meaning forest, connecting nature with traditional culinary practices from the Sichuan region. This philosophy influences how the ingredients are sourced and presented to diners throughout the year.
The restaurant operates daily across two service periods, with online reservations available to guests. It is advisable to book ahead, particularly on weekends and holidays, to secure a table.
Each dish combines specific blends of Sichuan pepper and regional spices according to recipes from the chef's personal collection. These carefully developed spice combinations are rarely replicated elsewhere and reveal the attention given to each dish's creation.
