Ping's Cafe Orient - Chinese restaurant in Kolkata - Kolkata, India

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!

Excellent Asian food. Grilled charcoal roasted pork, pork belly dish, asian betki grill , lamb gravy (in some Thai style sauce with parota) all were excellent, Service was also good. They serve liquor but our group had taken beer only.

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.

The ambience was really appealing. Presentation of the dishes were pretty nice, though the taste and quality was average. Nasi Goreng was very salty, and the chicken a bit dry and overcooked. We really loved the dessert. Overall experience was not bad.

An amazing afternoon with the delicacies. We had Bailey's Irish Cream (4.5/5) Thai Lemongrass cooler ( really refreshing ,4.5/5) Dimsums: chicken Peking(4/5) and butter prawn(4.5/5) And lastly the dessert, Chocolate Marquise, is a heaven. (100/5) A pricy, yet a cosy cafe

Visited recently, there were some new deal goin on mocktails may be, we went for it on the guidance of the helper, but later got to know that those drinks which they apparently state as mood drink is actually way costlier than the actual mocktails, which were not even informed about. The taste of mocktails were pretty average aswell. Coming to food we tried a few dim sums they were good, a roasted chicken, that was good aswell. No much complaints about food, it's good, but can be better, nothing outstanding about it to be very honest. The service was really good though, the ambience is soothing and beautiful, nice place to go on a date, and even hangout with some friends. The location of the place is also quite good. But their food needs to be a bit better and the mocktails require a lots and lots of improvement. The suggestions were improper and we were left back with no other option than finishing what we ordered. But definitely it's a must visit as one of the most beautiful cafe's in Kolkata

We tried the Samurai lobster, Philadelphia cream cheese dim sum, Soft shell crab bao, Pear poached in wine. All the food were very tasty. The ambiance was nice. But this place is a little overpriced.
