Mainland China, Bangalore , India

This is my first review here. Hope you like it. Here goes....

Me and my friends were planning to go out last weekend and were searching for a good place to tickle our taste buds. Mainland China had recently started a new restaurant in Indiranagar. I had gone to their restaurant in Bombay and knew that I could look forward to a good time
there. There is one more on Church Street, but I had heard that it was not that good. Anyway, this one was quite near to my place, by the side of the Airport road fly over towards Indiranagar, bang opposite Barbeque Nation. It was a short matter convincing my friends about the place, since they generally accept my advice on restaurants.

We were there at the restaurant sharp at 1:30. There is a lounge as soon as we enter, presumably for people to wait for table. Thankfully it was not overcrowded and we managed to get a table for ourselves. The decor was tasteful and the overall ambience was quite good. I think there were two more floors on the top where they serve. The service was
also quite fast.

We started off with dumplings and soup. Both were extremely good. My friends, who had not gone to authentic chinese till then, were quite impressed with the taste. The main course consisted of chicken noodles and rice, a plate each of general tso’s chicken and a seafood
preparation, was quite filling. By the time we finished off with a dessert all three of us were too full to sit up.

The total added up to somewhere around 1.8 K . It was slightly above what we expected. But with such delecious food, who are we to complain. Over all, an experience I could repeat many times!

They have basement parking and valet parking. Reservation might be a good idea. It wasn’t that crowded when we had gone in. But it got more crowded after around 15-20 minutes and there were people still waiting at the lounge when we left.
