Despite being a vegetarian, I had a lot to choose from! This was impressive. We started with soups. Served in Porcelain bowls, the texture, and the taste was just about likable. However, the quantity of which was quite satisfying. Dim sums made way to the table right after. The presentation was not anything different from the usual, but the taste was. The dumplings were fragile and tasted authentic. Appetizers were served next. The options here were a mix of both – something new and the usually preferred. The signature dish, Open China signature tofu was presented well, and in adequate quantity. The tofu was delicate and the taste was just right – sweet and spicy. Many with a decent appetite can easily finish the serving on their own! Finally, it was time for the main course, the quantity of which was also very sufficient for two. The quality of the food was impressive and the taste was well balanced, thankfully without fusing it with anything Indian.
Spread on a vast area, the feel of the restaurant is cozy, and visitors can choose seats from one of the three divisions. Open China serves a range of beverages which includes juices, shakes, and Mocktails.
