Fine dining restaurant are no longer a luxury. They’ve rather become an experience that everyone must have had more than once in their regular course of dining. While the list of fine dining restaurants keeps growing longer by the day, not all these restaurants can keep up to their repute of fine dining category.
Bindiya Chotrani experiences fine dining at mainland China and tells us if this one keeps up to its repute of the same.
We settled down on our tables, hungry and wanting to call for food. The menus were placed onto our table and we soon began with the first course – one portion of the chicken hot, and sour soup, aromatic chicken with garlic, drums of heaven, veg spring rolls and stir-fried ginger mushrooms chilli. We were surprised on learning that the restaurant did not serve the chicken Manchow soup.
The chicken hot and sour soup was heavenly, not runny like at the other restaurants. Perfectly
Drums of heaven that tasted like this, absence of the Chicken manchow soup on the menu considering this particular soup isn’t an actual Chinese appetizer made us wonder if this place was trying to emulate an authentic fine dining Chinese eatery.
We called for sodas to wash down our food, that took what seemed like ages to be served.
We’d visit this place for a second time only if they improve their stupefyingly slow service. As for the taste of food, we’d only recommend customising it to the taste-buds of a typical Indian. Yet again, there is no dearth of Indians who’d rather have a mildly sweet chicken lollipop then the typically piquant one.
