Restaurant Review in Kolkata

As expatriate in Kolkata, we are really careful with the food to avoid any food poisoning happened to us. The food in India of course is very tempting to be tried.

Here is some restaurants that we have been and tried the delicacy.

2. Beijing Restaurant
It is located in China Town, North Tangra, Topsia Road - Kolkata
It is Indian-Chinese cuisine. The restaurant ambiance is family oriented and the staff is very friendly. The food is very tasty. Most of the food that we had tried tasted super delicious.

Recommended meals: The Won ton soup, Chicken momo, spring roll for starters. Homemade fried noodle, Shanghai chicken, mixed vegetables, deep fried tofu for main courses.

The biggest spring roll that I ever had
Chicken momo / steamed dumpling


3. Bar B Q Chinese Restaurant
It is located in 55, Park Street. It is next to the Mcdonalds.
The entrance is pretty small. It is not pretty easy to notice the entrance. The restaurant is in the second floor. It is very big restaurant as well.
They serve Indian-Chinese cuisine. The restaurant ambiance is very classic Chinese.
It is one of recommended restaurant if we are in the main city of Kolkata.

We were there once. Because of the location is very far from our home, it is rare for us to visit.

Recommended meals: Won ton soup, Chicken kong pao, fried rice.


4. Mainland China Restaurant
This restaurant has few branches in Kolkata. The one that we are used to visit is in South City Mall. It is on top floor of the mall. They serve buffet besides the a la carte menu.

Recommended meals: Buffet selection for the weekend.
A la Carte menu: Dim Sum selection, Won ton soup, Sichuan chicken with chilis, chicken in black pepper sauce, Singaporean rice noodles.


5. West View Bar, ITC Sonar Hotel Kolkata
ITC Sonar Hotel has different kind of restaurant. We chose the West View Bar for our Christmas eve's dinner. It was great experience to dine in one of the best hotel in Kolkata.

We had the set menu for several courses and the alcoholic beverage package for my other half.


In the picture was mainly our meal that we receive for the package.
We started with the amouse bouche which was the candied apple with feta cheese, followed with the appetizer and chicken consomme soup. For the main course, we had the prawn, fish, chicken and turkey, beef in black pepper sauce. We closed the meal with the symphony of chocolate.

It was worthed plus the friendliness and attention from the staff, the ambience of the restaurant itself, the live music.
I rated the food and service is 10/10.

6. Asia Kitchen by Mainland China
It is located on 5th floor of Acropolis Mall, Kolkata.

We were the first timer guest here.  First impression was pretty amazing with the open kitchen concept and the chinese ornament as the decoration.
