Ping's Cafe Orient

Ping's Cafe Orient was in my wishlist for the longest of time as I can remember and the place did not disappoint even a bit. The decor is amazing and so are the staffs. The food is heavenly to say the least. We ordered the following dishes and drinks and all of them were unique and tasted awesome. 1. Charcoal Roast Pork Skewers - The name pretty much explaoms the dish. The smoky flavour in the perfectly cooked pork was amazing. A must try! 2. Prawn Garlic Butter Dimsum - very smooth favour, the dimsum outer layer was also thin, did not taste very unique but it tasted pretty good. 3. Pork Char Siu Bao - The Char Siu Pork inside the Bao was great. The bao bun was also good but I am a bit biased towards the bao bun of Momo i am, so in comparison, MIA wins in my opinion. But this one is another must try from ping's! 4. Lamb Rendang Curry and Steam Rice - The Rendang currt comes with a paratha but we ordered steamed rice seperately. The curry was one of the best one I have had till date. It had a rich coconut and kaffir lime flavour and I cannot emphasise how much I loved it. 100% a must try dish! 5. Chocolate Marquise - We ended our meal with Chocolate Marquise. The dessert was very smooth and was a perfect end to a perfect meal. For drinks we had ordered the cocktails Gin & Tea, Moscow Mule and Lemon Drop and both the drinks were very refreshing. On a different day I had also had Tenderloin Laksa home delivered from Ping's and it was heavenly. Do give it a try atleast once to know how amazing it tastes! I would definitely visit again to try out all the other great dishes that they offer. A highly recommended place!

The most amazing discovery of ours in Kolkata for pan-Asian. So much so we went twice within a weekend. The richest and yet most delicate of flavors, the dip and sauces out of the world, the soups and main courses never failing to deliver just that right punch. To top it all, the hospitality is warm and the environment comforting and soothing - laidback. The staff came across as knowledgeable as to the ingredients and preparations to our eager questions, and were helpful to cater to requests to customize per preferences. A big thanks to Animesh who made the experience worthwhile both days. The pricing, though on the higher side, seems reasonable given the quality of it all. Loyalists!

Pings is my go to in Kolkata and delhi. You can be guaranteed excellent cocktails, excellent service and brilliant food. I would advise their appetizers and short eats more than the main course. Their Peking duck is excellent and a hearty portion for 4. Prawn hargao is my favourite anywhere. Go ahead treat yourself whether it be a date, a special celebration or a catch-up with a group of friends.

Finally made it to Pings Kolkata, this place is pure vibes. We dropped in for a quick couple of cocktails and a bite. The Highballs we had was incredible refreshing, great flavours without overpowering the drink. We also had stirred aged rum, tea and absinthe drink which reminded us of a tropical Sazerac.

Amazing food! And lovely ambience! The staffs could be a little more efficient! Bevan was most solicitous and he did his best! The XO prawns, the Glazed pork belly, the Tom yum soup and the Xiaolong bao ( prawn and squid) were all awesome! The Jalapeno pepper and pineapple mocktail was very interesting...spicy and refreshing

A relatively new entrant in Park St serving authentic Asian food. Prompt service, good quality but a bit expensive wrt portion size. Good variety of starters like Chicken Yakitori, Wok tossed dynamite shrimp, Brocoli Almond Truffle oil dim sum are extremely tasty. The Lemongrass cooler or Vietnamese Iced Coffee are very refreshing mocktsils, worth trying.
