Ambiance at Mr. Hong

The name rings a bell in your mind right. Akshay and Deepika, who played a double role in the movie "Chandani Chowk" ti China must have relished the authentic Chinese food a lot of times during their shoot. But what if you and me wanna experience some amazing, authentic Chinese food in "namma" Bengaluru. Enter Mr. Hong. Located in the aesthetic and one of the biggest Malls in Bangalore, Orion the restaurant will attract a good amount of crowd thanks to tons of people flowing in every weekend and flocking the plush line ups of Stores and entertainment houses in there.

Today's generation no longer wants to be tied down to have only Indian or Italian food. It wants to explore new places, try need food and wear clothes inspired by designs from popular places of the world. Here's where Mr. Hong caters to the needs of authentic food lovers. It imports the vegetables and marine specials from East Asia, so as to give its customers a taste of the Local Chinese food. They have a menu chosen wisely and the specialities are made by Chefs who are experts in preparing Chinese food. 

The ambiance is very pleasing to the eye. The pottery is beautifully showcased and the lighting just gets mixed with the setup. Service is impressing and the attention to details is what makes them stand apart from other regional authentic restaurants. I was greeted with a Chinese customary hello gesture and served with Rose Tea. It followed with spicy soup accompanied with Som Tum Classic Salad and Steamed Veg Dumpling.

I chose to go with "Cucumber Elder Flower" out of the available mock tails such as Apple ginger mint, Orange chilli lemon and Guava Delight. And yes, they serve beer too with their amazing food. I haven't been a fan of Cucumber juice, but it was prepared with diligence so that the cucumber flavor doesn't hit you. The next dish which arrived at our table was a complete surprise. It looked like a bigger version of Onion rings, but we could not make out the Vegetable used. It was slightly on the sweeter side and carried tinges of spiciness.

The main course had Spicy Green Bean Curd, Stir Fried Veg in Chili Garlic, Veg Shanghai rice and Veg Phad Thai Noodle coupled with Jasmine Rice. The rice looks very similar to the rice you get here in India. But with close observation it bulges a little at the centre and tastes different. The Scallion sesame Veg Cake was just amazing. It was served hot, with molten chocolate inside. The exteriors were soft and looked quite pleasing. The entire experience was superb and Mr. Hong impressed me with more than just food.
