I was here for lunch last Saturday...loved the ambience...I didn't go for their buffet but took Ala-Carte.Had chicken soup with seafood it was very light and tasty...the lamb ribs were heaven,it was just melt in mouth a must have if you are into chili lamb experience,Thai dumplings were just wow and the prawn sticks were a just yummm...we ended with lychee and mandarin orange mocktail...the lychee one was too sweet due to too much syrup...else overall the service and food is a big thumbs up.

Been here soo many times. The food quality is really good. And the buffet was worth every penny. And the mocktails are one of my go to here
Sayan Majumder
The best place for Chinese food at Kolkata..The ambience is great .Service is timely and the waiters are also great. Better to avoid the buffet opinions available because those are not so great at all.
Sweta Singh
Good view.. good food.. good service. I want to visit again
DILIP KUMAR DAS
Very good place to celebrate your birthday with free b'day cake and background b'day music.
Rhitam Sofia
I visited the place a few number of times and my rating is mainly for the behavior of the staffs. Extremely well behaved and polite staffs are a big plus point of that restaurant. I was there with my mother on my birthday(Nov 2014). While filling up the review I did put my DOB. This was after we asked for the bill. However they noticed the date and arranged for a beautiful small cake and a candle which made my day :) . Apart from their great hospitality the food was also good and the ambiance was nice. I went to this place 3 more times and every time I found it nice.
Saibal Sen
Wonderful place delicious food with a great hospitality !
PRITAM CHAKRABORTY
First of all I have to say that you will get a very well hospitality and delicate experience of Chinese food. I would like to recommend fish preparation here and other preparation r really good as well. Very clean place it is for having a dining with your family. I'm very satisfied with this place. But one thing they should improve their chicken preparation because chicken pieces can be made further softer . But overall experience is too satisfactory.
Subhraneel Haldar
It is somewhat good and service quality can improve a little bit...Food quality is above Average...

Great place to hang out with the family members. Lots of good quality dishes are available. Great ambience with awesome atmosphere. The staff of the house are very much cordial and polite also helpfull. The price of the dishes are costly.
Madhurima Mukherjee
A restaurant where you can find authentic Chinese dishes. A good place for groups and couples. There are a wide variety of spicy and non spicy food so kids can easily accompany their parents and elders. A nicely decorated place with beautiful furnitures and cutleries and light music makes the ambiance very soothing and refreshing. The starters are very delicious. They have a large range of desserts and soft drinks. The restroom is very clean and well maintained. You can also book the place for private functions like birthday, anniversary etc. Now when we are going for dinning then finger bowls are served but when we attend private functions we need a basin to wash hands outside the restroom.
Subhajeet Ganguly
Awsm.... Lovely place also tasty food.. Good behavior....

Debabrata Mallick
It's our one of the special day that we enjoy in MAINLAND CHINA AVANI .. we ordered GARLIC BUTTER LOBSTER, MIXED RICE along with the ALCOHOL.. They made our date... thanks
Aniruddha Banerjee
This place has a very good ambience, staff are very well mannered and very courtiers if I remember correctly Mr Animesh who served us was very helpful polite and courteous. They were others also who assisted us. Overall it's a nice place for family dinner. Looking forward to visit again in the future. Last but not the least thank you Mainland China for the complimentary dessert. That was totally unexpected. Thank you, love you all and God bless.
Atri Nayak
The menu at the Avani Riverside Mall seemed a bit restricted compared to the other Mainland China outlets that we have visited. The food and drinks were of the standard expected from the chain.
Sejuti Ballav
Very good hospitality.. Awesome tasty food..Highly recommended
Sriparna Das
Great food quality.Nice ambience. Courteous stuffs.
Ankita Das
I would have given 5 stars if I was at any other branch of mainland china rathet than this one. The food was no doubt finger licking. You would be satisfied with both the quality and the quantity of the food. But the behavior of the waiters were not at all good. They were staring all the time. Not at all courteous. I have not experienced such in any other branch that I have visited in the past. This lowers the reputation of the franchise.<br/>Now lets come to the good part.<br/>I had thai style chicken dumplings which were so soft that would just melt in your mouth. The mixed veg fried rice and chili basil fish in a clay pot was good too. Though the rice was not properly cooked. But the fish was fresh. Do visit mainland china but not this branch.
Rajdeep
Very good 👍 but sorry to say the Ginger Candy is really bad.
Srijon Jana
Pretty Amazing food actually.<br/>Standouts in my order were the Peking duck. And definitely their rice noodles.<br/>The brownie and Darsaan was amazing too.<br/>Nice Place
Pritha Parida
The ambience is good, can give you a exact China feeling.. Apart from that service was very very late. I deducted 2 star for that reason, I don't know what made them do so. The dimsum was cold from inside , I loved the chicken and noodles as well.. Due to shortage of time we couldn't try the dessert.. I expect a bit faster service next time.
Rachaita Sinha
We tried buffet here and it was really reasonable. (699 with tax, per person). There were a fair variety of starters, main course and desserts. Dragon chicken lollipop was not that good, but fried veggies and soup were delicious and texture of fish was fresh. Coming to main course, rice was much better than noodles but garlic prawn need a special mention. Kiwi flavored ice cream was too good.<br/>Ambience and decor was undoubtedly beautiful. Service was quick and good.
Sumit Das
Nice food and good ambience. Staff behavior also very cordial
Anwesha Mukherjee
If you wanna have the most tasty Chinese food with classy ambience then Mainland China is one of the best options. Each and every item is so tasty. The Singapore rice noodles was very fine in its quality and the Taipei chicken was also one of the tastiest ones.

Cantonese noodles with stir fried seasonal vegetables (spicy) were great. Loved the pineapple and ginger frappe. Appreciate the ambience and almost silent restaurant. I come here especially for that little red sauce which is sweet and spicy in taste, kept on every table.
Udayan Saha
In one word 'Mainland China' is just fabulous. They served really good, authentic Chinese food at any time. I ordered a-la carte items - crispy corn, king prawn hunan style, chili oyster bhetki, Tsing hoi chicken and mixed sea food in hot pot along with egg rice and wok tossed hakka noodles. All the items were really good and delicious even elder members of my family who are not that fond of Chinese food still like Mainland China's food very much. Staffs are really good and very cordial. They always suggest you the better dish and correct quantity. Ambaiance is really cozy. It is little bit costly but they never comprise with quality.

Visit this restaurant on 2nd October with my friend. Pujo special Buffet was there for 855 INR.We tried that.No complementary drinks was there.So we ordered some lime water separately which was cost 90 INR each.Our total billing was around 2k for two.<br/>There had so many items<br/>Starter<br/>Chicken soup( sadly which was quite tasteless)<br/>Chilli prawn ( best dish..prawn was so fresh and taste was just awesome)<br/>Garlic fish ( this was also taste great)<br/>Chicken drumstick ( good but little spicy)<br/>Some crispy chicken ( okay in taste)<br/>Chilli cottage cheese ( paneer was hard and rubbery)<br/>Crispy baby corn ( good in taste)<br/><br/>Main course<br/>Mixed meat rice ( loaded with egg,minced chicken and lamb..tate was okay)<br/>Chicken hakka noodles (Tasted good but hardly get any chicken chunks)<br/>Fish in mustard sauce (fish was fresh)<br/>Chilli Chicken (good in taste)<br/>Garlic gravy prawn (good in taste)<br/><br/>Drinks was so much refreshing.<br/><br/>Dessert<br/>Coconut Pattie<br/>Pastry<br/>Four types Ice cream<br/>Chocolate sauce<br/><br/>Service was nice. But compare to taste, buffet price was higher side.<br/><br/>Ambience: 3.5/5<br/>Service: 4/5<br/>Food: 3/5
Madhurima
We loved the ambience and as it says, mainland China serves the best authentic Chinese, it truly does. One of the best buffets in Kolkata. The most delicious dish was mustard fish, frankly speaking I have never had such an awesome fish delicacy in my life that too being a Bengali I am saying this. So please go and enjoy 🙏
Suvabrata Edzio Das
Super friendly
Medhashree Ghosh
Ordered a lot of food which was overtly costly but not upto the mark. We started with dumplings, then ordered chilli fish, lamb and clay pot rice as well as pan fried noodles. Food Was so so. I've had much better food at a much cheaper rate...
Arindam Baidya
Whether buffet will available during puja on Sunday<br/>i.e. on 6.10.19..If available then price please.I ate there several times. Foods are awesome & amount is also sufficient.
Lalit Mundhra
Best Chinese food and a lot of variety..<br/>Best in Howrah for the Chinese lovers.<br/>Taste best and services awesome<br/>Both vegetarian and non vegetarian available
Sarbari Chatterjee
A proper Chinese restaurant in town.. Their foods are really too good.. It's located in Avani Riverside Mall& they have their an another outlet in Salt Lake..<br/>Qualities & quantities of foods were too good. This were above my expectations.. Their serving process & plating are also noticeable.. And specially their ambience is really awesome..<br/><br/>A highly recommended for Chinese lover..
Sanchita Ghose
Food is good. But not up to the limit if we compare it with other branches of Mainland China. I guess only weekend buffet is available. If buffet is not available on weekdays then they should update the information available in Zomato. I guess they regularly check their zomato information as they give reply to each and every review. The only plus point is thst the buffet rate is low compare to other Mainland China outlets. As now it is time for clay pot festival we can have the opportunity to experience some traditional food habits of Chinese people.
Esha Mukherjee
Situated in the top floor of avani riverside mall just in front of manchan in the foodcourt..<br/>The food was very delicious bit the quantity and the rate was very high..<br/>Ambience was nice and the behaviour of the staffs were satisfactory..

Epicure: A Foodaholic
Before I start my review, I would likely to say that I am almost a regular visitor of Mainland China (Avani riverside mall). Its like my Second home :) <br/><br/>Anyway, I would say:<br/><br/>1. If you are a Chinese cuisine lover, this is the best place.<br/>2. Staffs are very cordial and atmosphere is just awesome.<br/>3. Most importantly foods are very tasty and hygienic.<br/>4. The place is quite clean.<br/><br/>5. I wish washroom should be clean more.<br/><br/>*Last time visit, I ordered for Stater:<br/><br/>1. Chicken Hot and Sour Soup<br/>2. Chicken and straw Mushroom Sui Mai <br/><br/>*For Main Course:<br/><br/>1. Roasted Chicken Fried rice<br/>2. Pomfret with Black Pepper Sauce (not listed in the menu yet, just ask for it with your preferred sauce)<br/><br/>*Mocktail:<br/><br/>1. Mint Strom<br/>2. Fresh lime soda<br/><br/>**Must try: Mixed Pan fried noddles, fresh water bhetki/pomfret, and different types of mocktails..
Ranadhir Banerjee
This was my second time. Though first time I didnt have the opportunity to review but this till I will not give it a miss. The momo was fine but I certainly feel that there should be a bit more variety in the momo platter.<br/><br/>Noodles was great that compliments great with smoked prawns.<br/><br/>Service was well up to the mark.<br/><br/>I will not give any feedback till I visit few more times to actually drill down to some more detailed characteristics.<br/><br/>Regards.<br/>Ranadhir Banerjee.
Abhishek Mitra
The go to place if you want to try out Asian cuisine. Excellent food quality. Dimsums are love. A wide variety of noodles and starters along with main course. Good selection of beverages as well. Excellent for family dinners.
Nivedita Mullick (The Hungry Gourmand)
There’s a lot of thought that goes into following the traditional way of cooking and blending it into the modern day format. One such style of Asian cooking is the Clay Pot cooking. Embedded in history and in the cultural milieu, Clay Pot and Hot Pot have remained an authentic way of serving food hot and fresh. Mainland China, in an attempt to revive the lost art of cooking, brings to you the CLAY POT FESTIVAL imbibing 5000 years of Chinese and Pan Asian flavours straight off the hot pot. The menu has been carefully designed by our master chefs and culinary kitchen experts. It includes a gracious serving of delicacies such as Sichuan Vegetables in a Clay Pot, Buddha’s Delight in a Casserole, Sizzling Eggplant among vegetarian specialities and Sanpei Chicken, Malaysian Fish Curry in a Clay Pot, King Prawns and Glass Noodles in Tao’s Sauce Pot among non vegetarian specialities.

Avijit Biswas
Want there to attend the famous "Clay Pot Festival" at this outlet... The place is beautiful... Ambience is smoothing... And the staffs are very well trained... Love the behaviour of the staffs... They are calling each other with a prefix Mr. before the names... Very well organised and top notch service...<br/>Coming to the food... I must recommend some of their delicacies...<br/>"Ginger Chicken", "Jiang's Chilli Cottage Cheese" and "Prawn Har Gao" from the startars...<br/>"Ginger Noodles", "Sichuan Vegetables in a Clay Pot", "Malaysian Fish Curry in a Clay Pot" and "Asian Greens Clay Pot Rice" from the Main Course...<br/>"Choco Cigar" and "Darsaan with Vanilla Ice Cream" from the dessert section...<br/>You can order for "Watermelon Cilantro Crush" or "Mint Storm"...<br/>Pocket pinch is pretty justified...<br/>Disclaimer: This review is based on invitation from the Restaurant Management...<br/><br/>
Souvik
Went there for a lunch on Saturday. Place is well decorated. Ambience is good. Staffs are very courteous. All the drinks we ordered tasted great. I really liked their Chicken with assorted pepper dish. Worth a visit.

Elegant and sophisticated interiors with a planet of woodwork, this place screams out the warmth from the minute you step it. Located at 3rd Floor, Avani Riverside Mall, Howrah, 32, Jagat Banerjee Ghat Road, Choura Bustee, Shibpur, Kolkata. There’s a lot of thought that goes into following the traditional way of cooking and blending it into the modern day format. One such style of Asian cooking is the Clay Pot cooking. The menu has been carefully crafted keeping in mind the local taste bud while not throwing away the authenticity of the cuisine. 'Sichuan Vegetables in a Clay Pot' is a vegetarian favourite and 'Malaysian Fish Curry in a Clay Pot' is an explosion in the mouth. The new menu has some great dishes not sticking to only Chinese but foraying into other parts of South East Asia and Japan. 'King Prawns' are beautifully fragrant and have a nice bite to it. 'Mixed Seafood' which includes, prawns and fish cooked in a clay pot with Sichuan pepper as the hero ingredient is just unforgettable to the taste buds and should be tried with a mild lemongrass flavoured 'Fried Rice'. Embedded in history and in the cultural milieu, Clay Pot and Hot Pot have remained an authentic way of serving food hot and fresh. Mainland China, in an attempt to revive the lost art of cooking, brings to you the CLAY POT FESTIVAL imbibing 5000 years of Chinese and Pan Asian flavours straight off the hot pot.

Taste Redemption!<br/>I tried Mainland China buffet earlier and didn't quite like it. So this time around I was very apprehensive to visit that place to satiate my chinese craving.. And I went for ala carte menus<br/>Ambience : 4.5/5. I am more of a casual diner but ambience of this place deserve an applause. Special mention for the mandarin song being played.. So soothing<br/>Courtesy : 5/5. Staffs are extremely well trained and courteous. Big shout out!<br/>Food quality :4/5.. I am a chinese food lover and loved everything we ordered. We ordered 7 treasure chicken soup, Cantonese style chicken pan fried noodles and chicken tai pei. Chicken sizes could have been a little smaller<br/>Food quantity: 5/5.very filling for two people. Great portion sizes<br/>Hygiene : 3.5/5. The lap cloth could be cleaner a little bit.<br/>Overall experience :4.5/5<br/>I am a happy foodie today 😊
Swarnadeep Chakraborty
Wanna taste the real flavour of China?<br/>What are you waiting for? Mainland China is the Go-To!<br/>You'd not be disappointed after your munching session. Trust me!

Khushi NotOnlyMakeup
We 2 went for lunch on a weekday.<br/>The prices on the ala carte menu was exorbitant.<br/>We opted for buffet.<br/><br/>660 AI per head.<br/>There were variety of options and i was impressed.<br/>But how the taste ?<br/>AVERAGE<br/>I had loads of expectations from the brand name. But except 2 -3 items none impressed me.<br/><br/>Lil tip - starters are much better than main course.<br/>Dessert was good too.<br/><br/>
Paromita Sarkar (ps_its_foodstories)
On a Sunday, as pre-birthday celebration of mine, I and my friend went Mainland China(Shibpur Outlet at Avani Riverside Mall) for their weekend special lunch buffet.<br/>Mainland china serves their lunch and dinner buffet only on Saturday and Sunday.<br/>Lunch buffet costs around Rs.662(Including tax)<br/>The place is quite spacious and can accommodate I guess more than 50 people at a time.<br/>Theie service is quick and the staffs are friendly.<br/>Now coming to food-<br/>Firstly, they don't have any complimentary drink with their buffet,so we bought Mint Storm as chinese food can not be eaten without any beverages.<br/>Now menu-<br/>They have<br/>On starter-<br/>soup,<br/>Chicken dumplings(good quality),<br/>Drums of heaven(spicy but delicious),<br/>One preparation each of fish,potato and baby corn.<br/>On main course-<br/>Prawns singapore style<br/>Fish in sichuan chilli sauce<br/>General taos chicken<br/>Egg fried rice<br/>Veg fried rice<br/>Chinese pickle or kimchu<br/>Veg noodles and egg noodles<br/>And many more.<br/>On desserts -<br/>Four flavoured ice cream with separate sauce and crusts,<br/>Fresh watermelon,<br/>Chocolate rolls,<br/>Darshan( fruit custard)<br/>Overall it was good. Food quality was good. Only thing is that I think a complimentary drink can be given, otherwise as buffet it’s mouthwatering and worth the price.
Sohom Sarkar
The ambience is as usual very mesmerizing. Chinese cuisine when presented in a Chinese atmosphere, adds to the taste. We had ordered Taipei Chicken as the appetizer. The chicken was soft and the well cooked. Tasted amazing. It was followed by a portion of Chicken Fried rice and General Tao's chicken.<br/>Both quantity and quality of food was amazing.<br/>A must visit for everyone with a Chinese tooth.<br/>
Harsh Rakhecha
It was a decent experience overall. Service and quality of food is good and consistent. <br/><br/>They should add the popular chinese black rice in their menu !
Soumya Dey
Ambiance is cool & Staffs are very friendly,polite & cooperative,almost trained to maintain good standard.<br/>Food is not up to the mark. Price is bit high as per quality & taste.<br/>perticular in this branch washroom is not clean & tap was broken.
Piyasa
Can u send me about the price and detail buffet menu of this place?I am planning to visit on this weekend. My email id is :- piyasarini@gmail.com

It was there in my checklist for long time.as it is situated in avani mall which is a frequently visited place of mine it was obvious to visit it long ago but that didn't happen.so finally when I came here I was really happy.the sitting area was pretty huge, nice decor and staffs were courteous. We ordered chicken and straw mushroom dimsum (regular) but I suggest ordering large one because the dimsums were very small in size. We also ordered a pineapple and ginger frappe and hot Brownie sizzler.<br/>The dimsum was tasty but the sauces that came along with it were more tasty.the drink was very refreshing .The brownie was ok not something extraordinary.<br/>My overall experience was nice i can say.

Finally got a chance to visit this restaurant so close to my home. The hospitality and ambience were really soothing and calm, this maybe due to reaching for an early dinner. The staff are polite and well groomed. Food tasted more like Indo Chinese than authentic Chinese. I ordered burnt garlic noodles with veg and veg dumplings in chilli soya sauce. I would visit again to check out other items from the menu.

The staff service a thumbs up. Would like to visit again!😍<br/><br/>

As the name suggests, the restaurant serves authentic Chinese cuisine. The food was awesome, especially, the prawn fried rice and the shredded chicken. I loved the food, ambience and the service.
Shristi Singh
Mainland China is not a new name. The ambience and decor is elegant like their res of the outlets. The service was really nice. My recommendation will be drums of heaven and chicken fragrant pit rice.

Priyanka Bristi Chatterjee
Ambiance was very good..feels like a real chinise place..pleasant music...and mostly the great staff facilty they are exteamly polite and anwsered all my questions..but the food is not good at all..like other expensive resturants..here the taste is not upto the mark..i have ordered chicken dimsum and mintsoda mocktail..both are not so special in terms of taste.
Soumyadeep Das
The anbience is awesome so as the food. Just ask for their all time menu chart...even if there is some special festival is going on... A-la-carte is preferred... Also try fish (basa) from this joint... I liked pan fried fish...
Rubel Majhi
Very bad fooding experience.Rs 662 for buffet was not worth. Doesnot like it. No dishes were up to the mark . All foods were very much bland. Soup was very bad. Only deserts were good but only icecream mainly. Very bad
Amrita Paul Chowdhury
Combo meal on 399/- is sufficient for one person. Taste of chicken hakka noodles, fish with sauce of the day, darsan as sweet are specially very tasty. Drum of chicken, chicken fried rice, chicken of the day is also delicious. highly recommended place for this combo meal time and other time also. Delivery time is so quick and staffs are so polite.

If you are someone who craves for hot and spicy food then the Hunan Festival at @mainlandchinaindia is the place to be.<br/>Mainland China is hosting a special Hunan festival where you can expect a wide array of delicacies from the region.<br/>Hunan is known as a province in Central China and has contributed to a distinct and unique cuisine under the umbrella of Chinese cuisine. And if it’s Mainland China, it is even more fiery and delicious. With a combination of fire and spices, Hunan cuisine is known for its liberal use of chilli peppers, shallots, garlic. “<br/><br/>At the Hunan Festival, one can expect an array of appetizers such as Chongqing Mushrooms, Corn Triangles Hunan Sichuan, Sliced Fish with Mango Mustard, Crispy Chicken Wings with Hunan Chillies among many others. The main course boasts of fiery delicacies such as Vegetables and Watermelon Hunan Style, Chengdu Clay Pot Vegetables, Hot and Numbing Chicken, Prawns in Mild Chilli Vinegar, Soft Noodles with Tofu Hunan Style etc.<br/><br/>The best part about Mainland China is it balances out the spices in your food very well makes it even more delicious.<br/><br/>The Hunan Festival is happening at Mainland China,Avani Mall and Durgapur in the month id December and you must drop in to witness a spicy affair in this winter chill.

Nothing more to say about mainland china of avani riverside as there are lots of many restaurants but mainland has the best ambience with best quality but the cost is very high they also charge money for water a i ordered chowmien fried rice chilly chicken no doubt quality and quantity was good and salad<br/>is available unlimited<br/>You can take as much as you want<br/>Ultimately if you want to visit mainland china<br/>You can go for dineout with friends or family

One of the branches of this famous restaurant is located at the Avani riverside mall. The interiors are pretty good and the capacity it can hold is quite large. Food, as usual is awesome,and the staff, quite courteous and helpful.
Piyasha Das

Rating it a 5 star because of the ambience and the courteous staffs. We went there during Durga Puja..so we needed a pre booking. The place was good,clean. We tried fish items...it was yum! A must try for Chinese lovers in Kolkata.
June Mukherjee
My favorite place !<br/>The staffs over here are so well behaved and friendly that we love to visit them often.<br/>The food is always so fresh and they carefully listen to every instruction we give and make us the desired food. Once(only once) they failed to do so, they apologised and changed the food within minutes! I am literally their fan!<br/>The food, the desserts everything is finger licking good. They help us choose our side dishes whenever we ask for assistance! Best place to dine ! Will always love mainland China avani riverside outlet !
Sakshi Agarwal
So you all know about the ambiance here, I assume. <br/>The food is really nice here from soup to main course(didn’t try deserts here 🤦‍♀️). <br/>The portions are good too. <br/>Service was nice. Waiters were fully aware about the menu and the items. <br/>Waiting time wasn’t much. <br/>Slightly on pricey side. But once in a while you want to have a pocket pinch. Haha.
Tanmay Paul
Ambience is good. One of the best place to have Chinese meal. Their takeaway combo is nice and affordable. Chili chicken, chicken manchurian and non veg fried rice are just awesome. Service is also very good. Staffs are nice and well behaved. Overall it's a perfect place for having a Chinese meal
Foodieraja
Mainland China is not a new name when it comes to having Chinese in Kolkata but they do have a whole new Menu which they introduced a few months back. So I took some time and visited to find out what's exactly new.<br/><br/>Speaking of Ambience, the place is quite spacious with the usual decor that it present in all of their  outlets. It's elegant, comfortable and creates a good experience around it's visitors.<br/>Service too, is accurate and timely. I have never faced any issues regarding delays or misbehaviour so thumbs up from my end.<br/><br/>Coming to Food, there is a lot new on the plate. One of the most biggest change I've noticed is their transition from Indo Chinese to True Chinese Cuisine. Even the dishes speak the change. Plus they have a whole new range of Food and Dessert. I don't think much has stayed from their Previous Menu at all.<br/>But overall, I loved what I had. The Whole Food has received a huge improvement in it's Taste and Quality. I'd say the Desserts were great but I've had even better. But the rest, absolute stunners.<br/>My recommendations would be Basil Chicken Dimsums, General Tao's Chicken , Burnt Garlic Fish with Seasonal Greens, Roasted Chicken Fried Rice and Coconut Caramel Custard.<br/><br/>What I've had :-<br/><br/>FOOD :<br/>1. Basil Chicken Dimsums - must try<br/>2. Roasted Chicken Fried Rice - must try<br/>3. General Tao's Chicken - must try<br/>4. Burnt Garlic Fish with Seasonal Greens - personal favourite, must try<br/>5. Tsing Hoi Chicken<br/><br/>DESSERTS :<br/>1. Mango Pudding - good but I've had better<br/>2. Coconut Caramel Custard - must try<br/>3. Hot Chocolate Rolls with Vanilla Ice Cream<br/><br/>BUFFET :<br/>1. Prawn and Egg Fried Rice<br/>2. Veg Hakka Noodles<br/>3. Diced Chicken in Barbecued Onion<br/>4. Lamb Balls in Thai Chilli Sauce<br/>5. Fish in Butter Chilli Oyster Sauce - my favourite<br/>6. Desserts - way better<br/><br/>I'd say Food in the Buffet was good but the Desserts were way better.<br/><br/>Overall, the place is really great to be in. The ambience is pretty and their Food is fantastic as well so yeah, a recommendation from my end.
