Little China  

In Calcutta if you think of Chinese cuisine, the first name that comes to one's mind is Tangra’s Chinatown . Although crowded, congested and a far cry from Chinatowns in Western cities, the food here is a must-have.

The Little China as it is known as is basically inhabited by Chinese people who have been here since a long long time and the cooking is done by authentic Chinese chefs who have adjusted themselves to the Indian palate. There are a lot of restaurants out there notably amongst them is Floras, Wan chai & Dim Sum. These are the places that one should regularly visit . The ambience is really good and the one word which best decribes the food here is "Amazing"'.
The variety of food served here gives us the taste of authentic Chinese cuisine. The Fried Wanton , Shrimps On Toast and Prawn Tempura are painstakingly prepared amidst the ones listed on the menu. The Prawn Tempura is especially very popular among the restaurant's regular clients.

True to Chinese tradition, soups form an important part of this place. Apart from the commonly found Hot 'n Sour and Sweet Corn Soup, there are seafood soups like Shark Fin with either chicken or prawn, Mixed Mizutaki Soup (family soup) and the divine Princess Garden Special Soup.

The main courses served at the joints here are worth the wait, though some tend to be generous with the chillies. Try the seafood, lamb and chicken delicacies with Cantonese fried noodles, prepared with chicken, prawn or pork - reasonably priced . It tastes great and one serving is good enough for two.
The ambience may not suit all but the taste of that original Chinese food is sure to lure all.
