This place used to be a LOVELY restaurant called Harmony. I don't kno who's that idiot who thought they could get better than Harmony. Since the place is right opposite my house I decided to try it out - needless to say, only to come out disappointed.
They used to serve momos earlier, which they've stopped, so I really don't have any reason to go back.
Another insider's tipe - I was there some 10 days ago for lunch, and the waiter secretly slipped an Indian menu in our hands.
So, I would say, be afraid, be very afraid - when a Chinese restaurant is promoting it's Indian menu!

A friend meeting after a long time, suggested this place. I always knew it a decade back with cheap drinks & economical food.
Reached there & was surprised to see the ambiance which was extremely good. The inside had been enlarged with the AC working well. The outside was enclosed out with lovely tables, chairs & benches with Air Coolers give some additional breeze.
Since Sailesh was already sitting outside, joined him & ordered a pint to begin with. We were served khimchi & cheeslings (with constant replenishments).
However hungry that we were (sailesh already having tried the dim sum) looked at the menu with light from the phone, since there are only candles on the tables.
Without being adventuresome ordered Crispy Thread Chicken (chicken covered with crisp noodles) (150). Delivered promptly, hot alongwith the sauces - black bean, schezwan , chilli......
The first fork & the noodles started flying all over the place, with no sign of chicken, then aha! a piece, rubber invented all over again.....
Since the portion was small finished them off with the sauce. Black bean tasted nothing like any other place & was informed proudly by the server that it was made here.
Another friend having joined us here, we decided to be brave, consult the menu again & order - Crispy Chicken (150)as recommended by them & Chicken Sui Mai(150) by sailesh.
Crispy chicken came so promptly that we were forced to ask if it was someone's cancelled order. 1st piece & Sailesh thru a tantrum; went all over explaining why the chicken was crisp & the entire two bits of gyan, with me hoping to get a word in. However the net result being, they replaced the dish with Chicken Fuchi Style (160). If anything it was even worse.
In the meantime Sui Mai were brought in & served 2 to each one of us, AND then the server is holding 1 piece & looking at sailesh enquiringly???
So he goes like Hellow; Hellow the earlier time there were 6 pcs & now 7 so if we order a 3rd time will it be 8.....what's going on....answer - sir it is normally 6-7; jeez maan give us break, even panipuri is 6/8/12 never 6-7
At 11.15pm we asked to speak to the chef, who after a lot of searching, were told had left!!! Imagine when the restaurant closes at 12.
So the evening ended!!!
Ambiance 4/5
Food 2/5 (Only for the cheeslings & sui mai)
Service 1/5 (for the replacement & replenishment)
And MIND IT this is run by a old caterer FoodLink Services India Pvt. Ltd.
