Fabulous food and great ambience. Loved all that we tasted-beef salad, fish n chips, n best of all Philadelphia dumplings (melt in the mouth)!
Went for dinner a few days ago with family. I absolutely loved the food, ambiance and the service. We will definitely visit the place again. Everything we ordered was amazing and made me very happy. ( it's very difficult to make me happy as far as food is concerned )
Went there once and cancelled a Birthday reservation at the Oberoi Grand to go back 2 days later to celebrate my birthday and it was so well worth it ! Definitely on the top of my regular “places to eat out” list now !
Amazing and innovative food...... and Kolkata best cocktails.....
The philadelphia cream cheese dim sums! � Must must try!
Such a happening place superb food.
Great food and ambience.. must visit..
If dumplings is on your mind, then this place is an absolute must! They offer avariety of Asian food ranging from Chinese to Indonesian to Korean.
1. Pings fashioned: a cocktail that serves well as a palate cleanser with a strong flavor of star anise. Makes your palate ready for the food to come.
2. Philadelphia cream cheese dimsum with wild mushroom, water chestnut and truffle oil: an extremely wonderful dish, something I've never tasted before. Extremely complex flavors yet a well blended simplicity. Leaves you craving for more. A must try.
3. Prawn har gow: the prawn stuffing inside was absolutely delightful. The flavor and taste of prawn was kept intact and the texture was a best part. Highly recommended.
4. Chicken sui mai: the chicken was well flavored with spices, the wrapping not too thick. A well prepared dish.
5. Shredded duck bao: the bao was extremely soft and the flavor just came through. The sauce blended well with the flavor. However it was a bit too sweet for my taste.
6. Pho noodle soup: the soup was extremely aromatic and the thick noodles were filling. The soup came with greens, egg and chicken with chilli oil, green onions and dried fish flakes on the side to be mixed as per taste. A filling dish to warm you up.
7. Nasi lemak: rich steamed in coconut milk served with a fried chicken piece, boiling egg, peanut, sambal and cucumber. A Malaysian dish served perfectly with an amazing taste.
The ambience was lively and the staff extremely courteous. A highly recommend place for some good food and fun time.
Rating: 4/5.
Pocket pinch: 1500 for 2.
I ordered dry chicken from here..It was cooked in very less amount of oil,just the way I wanted.
The chicken was tender and tasted amazing😍😍
Search for authentic indonesian street food ends here. Nasi goreng was simply out of the world. Liked the attention given to small details like prawn crackers, nasi skewers that comes along nasi goreng! Thai sliced lamb was also amazing!
Really just lovely place...This reastaurent located at park street area.food quality was really very good ...two or three types of cuisine u can must visit this place ..bacicaly this is a cafe cum bar ....Bar setup or organized is very good..... Ambience very much colourful and staffs are friendly but service is a little bit slow. I orderd many types of dish and 4 to 5 alcoholic drinks ...drunken noodles and dynamite prawn and chili potato most favorite this items for me.
So I recommend to all the people ,such a great experience a head too.

Sagar maity
Finally some good fooood 😍
Tasty and trust are the two words when it comes to food that I got delivered from Ping's.
Items ordered-
- Philadelphia Cream Cheese DimSums
- Veg Green Curry
- 3 Mushroom in Soya Basil
- Veg Pad Thai Noodles
All of the items amazingggggggg af. The packaging was really good and the food packing material was also of good quality. Talking about the food, it was of the same taste that I had tasted when I had visited them and I was very very happy eating this after sooooooo long.
Thumps up 🙌
Craving good food with all the safety and security concerns, order from here.
It’s is one of my favourite place to visit, simply a go to place. The ambience is amazing so is the decor and the staff are also courteous and friendly.
The food out there is worth having.
They have various options in their menu as well.
The only thing is that the quantity is little less I meant the food portion.
A mind blowing experience. Best Oriental food in the entire city. enjoyed the food and the atmosphere with the best chefs in the city.
Amazing place and the best for Asian lovers! Be sure to have a treat!!!!! (Literally can’t contain my excitement and love for this place)
I loved the food, ambience, staff's behavior.
The food was great. The quantity could be improved
I enjoyed a lovely week day lunch here during Great Indian Restaurant Festival and got a 50% discount on the food bill. We ordered a mushroom soup that was cooked in broth, deliciously flavourful with crunchy greens floating in it. The spicy chicken dimsums were a taste bomb. The juicy chicken salad though very balanced in the sweet/sour /salt department was a tad too fishy for my taste. As for the mains: we ordered the Nasi Goreng with Chicken skewers and Nasi Lemak with fried chicken. The former was a smoky fried rice...the taste was too aggressively umami for me as was the fish sauce smell. The sticky sweet coconut milk rice with condiments was a better platter, I felt. The fried chicken was to die for...the intense saltiness went so well with the bland rice! I overate of course, a sign that the food was good. Will come back again!
Chandan, was very attentive and did a wonderful job taking care of us. He overheard that it was my daughters bday and immediately brought a delicious desert to celebrate. We were all very touched. Thank you Chandan.
Chandan was very helpful and extremely courteous! He helped us order our food in time and recommended the best from the menu. A definite revisit!
A chic-place with dim and ambient lighting. Had Broccoli, Almond and Truffle Oil Dimsum, Spinach Tempura Bao, Peking Chicken and Wok-Fried Sliced Lamb. Pocket pinch was around Rs. 1600. Quite on the higher side but saying that the dishes were quite amazing and unique in it's own kind. The Lamb could have been softer but the Dimsums were out of this world and lip-smacking tasty.
After making a few visits at this place I must say, it is truly a wonder ! I almost regret not finding about it any sooner.
Speaking of Ambience, the place is pretty w/ a lovely decor & comfy seatings. The place is relatively spacious w/ two storeys but it can still get crowded on holidays. Service here, is apt & timely w/ the staff being quite informative & helpful.
Coming to Food, it has been wonderful so far here ! The Food is really quite stunning & delicious over here. Portions especially for Mains are quite appropriate & ample, however Dumplings could really use a bit more.
Recommendations would be their Philadelphia Cream Cheese Dumplings, Chicken Shu Mai, Pho Noodle Soup, Penang Curry, Ginger Roger, Chocolate Foam & Chocolate Marquise !
What I've had :-
DUMPLINGS & APPETIZERS :
1. Philadelphia Cream Cheese Dumplings - absolute must try
2. Chicken Shu Mai
3. Peking Chicken
4. Spinach Tempura Bao - must try
5. Broccoli, Almond & Truffle Oil Dumpling
MAINS :
1. Pho Noodle Soup - must try
2. Chicken Fried Rice - was fine, not the best
3. Steamed Rice
4. Penang Curry - must try
5. Wok Fried Lamb - must try
6. Air Fried Whole Pomfret
DRINKS & DESSERTS :
1. Dark & Stormy
2. Ginger Roger - must try
3. Chocolate Foam - must try
4. Chocolate Marquise - must try
5. Assorted Mochi
Overall, had a fantastic set of experiences at this place. The Food is really delicious over here, really impressed ! Recommended from my end.
Ping's cafe orient is located in middleton road, near loretto house college, park street, kolkata. The ambience is extremely relaxed and party-like, which makes it best for the college crowds. This is the perfect place to hangout with your friends as there is a game floor upstairs, used mostly for gaming. And the ground floor is perfectly lit up, with ample seating area and lots of decorations, like quotes in bright neon colours.
We had ordered a chicken teriyaki bao priced at Rs.425 and a chicken fried rice priced at Rs.275. The chicken teriyaki bao was very sweet and very delicious in taste. And the chicken fried rice had the perfect mix of spice and the chicken flavour to it. Which makes it for a very tasty dish. I would totally recommend this place to anyone in and around park street.
1. Chicken teriyaki bao - Rs. 425.
2. Chicken fried rice - Rs.275.
Rating : 4.8/5.
Ping's Cafe Orient is indeed a hidden gem. Tucked away on Middleton Street a couple of hundred metres from the ever popular Peter Cat, this pan Asian restaurant is small in size but has a big heart. We visited on Christmas Day (2019) for lunch, but missed the mulled wine. Instead we were offered Hot Toddy which was to die for. Anyone who has a sore throat can dump the antibiotics and opt for this one, the throat will be fixed overnight.
Shankar served us well. We opted for Roast Pork in um Sauce, prawns sui mai and pan fried chicken gyoza all of which were spot on.
For the main course, Mee Goreng with pork or chicken, or Pad Thai noodles are simply irresistible. Or simply settle for the standard chicken fried rice and a diced chicken in black bean sauce. Succulent, crunchy and piquant, each one has a distinct flavour and is gratifying. The portions are large (albeit the noodle bowls are each good for one) and the prices are reasonable.
Much recommended. Cost for a couple approximately Rs. 2,000.
Thank you so much for making my Christmas a beautiful one. What a brilliant menu starting from cocktails to dessert!
Coming to the main point , I urge everyone to plan a eat out at Pings soonest possible. We were group of 6 people went there for a Christmas dinner and Pings made our day. We ordered Cream cheese dimsum and chicken dimsum for starters. I must say that Cream cheese Dimsum is a piece of heaven on earth. Cocktails ordered were Elderflower spritzer, whiskey mule, ginger roger. Each and every cocktail was amazing . As I am vodka person I enjoyed Elderflower Spritzer more. For Entree we ordered different bowls starting from Pho Noodle Soup, Ramen, Pad Kra Pao, Udon Noodles, Lasi Lemak and Malaysian bhetki rice bowl. Ramen and Pho soup was soothing and perfect choice for weightwatchers . Lasi Lemak is rice cooked in coconut milk which is amazing and extremely flavorful. Pad kra pao is the safest if you don't want to experiment much and still want something soothing and comforting. The quality of meat in every item was good, well prepared and have an unique taste. Malaysian Bhetki is a soul food for all bengali as it has 'machh and bhaat' yet with an oriental twist.
My rating is based absolutely on the quality and quantity of food. For healthy oriental food this is THE place.
Having visited this place for the first time on christmas despite it being on my bucket list for a very long time, i loved every bit of my visit to the extent that i called the GM Saurav and congratulated him personally. Firstly we didn't have a reservation and Saurav was kind enough to accommodate us in a swarming rush of incoming guests. Next a special mention must go to the beef salad. It is the best i have had so far in my life. Anyone who loves salads or beef or oriental cuisine, must try this masterpiece out. Drunken noodles and diced chicken stir fry was also good but then the dessert, matcha sandesh cheesecake was again a stunner. The service was more than sweet and courteous. Highly recommended for the ambience, the food, the warmth shown by Saurav as well as all the attendants. You people are doing a fabulous job. You can pat your backs and get a glass of wine maybe to celebrate your good work. Cheers and merry Christmas 💖

Yet another fun food outing with my dear buddy - Dishanti - it's always about unlimited fun whenever we both venture out..😍
Finally, i get an opportunity to step inside Ping's Cafe Orient Kolkata (after umpteen failed plans 😃) and we came out pretty happy..
Started off with my all time favourite coffee - the #ViatnameseIcedCoffee - they certainly did justice to the drink.. A perfect start indeed..
The #WokFriedPorkBellyinMisoPlumSauce was truly a revelation - loved it to the last bite..
The #PadKraPao or #PorkRiceBowl was a good filler - an ideal main course delicacy with lots of pork and delicious Basil rice..
#TenderloinPahdThaiNoodles was more or less the Pahd Thai Noodles you make at home - nothing out of the ordinary but was a pleasant experience with the tastebuds..
Thank you dear Anshul for taking good care of us inspite of your absence - hoping to catch up soon..
I had heard rave reviews about this beautifully done up place and i must admit that it is worth those reviews.. Must visit if you are yet to drop in.. A great addition to Park Street's gastronomical stops..
Till we meet again and make more food memories 😍🤝
P.S: Thank you all for being a part of our Kolkata Food Trotters (Facebook/Instagram) family - looking forward to having you all amongst us at our #SecondBirthdayBash on #19thJan without fail.. #BOOKNOW.. ❤️
I've wanted to come ping's cafe orient for a long time, a place known for its food and drinks. We were welcomed by friendly staff and the music was good. as far as the food is concerned:
.) Chicken spicy dumpling - it was average, had better, lots of stuffing stuffing.
.) Pork Ramen - The pork was wonderful, overall a good dish.
.) Nasi Lemak - it was a wonderful dish, the taste of the chicken was out of this world accompanied with coconut rice.
.) Chocolate sandesh cheesecake - Might be the best dessert I've had in my life.
.) Chocolate Marquise - it's too chocolaty for my liking, but hey, it's just mine. Most of you'll love it :)
Went for lunch yesterday. The ambience is very delightful and their music choice sets the mood. Tried Spicy chicken dumplings ( was not spicy at all), nasi lemak ( 5/5), pork ramen (4.5/5),
For dessert sandesh cheese cake (5/5 one of the best desserts I have tried)
Chocolate marquise (5/5)
For drinks we have taken the God father and Beijing bellini. Drinks were so amazing but was little bit pricey for that much quantity.
Can't wait to try their nasi lemak, cheese cake and drinks again. Will surely recommend this place.
Thank you
Super chill and a cozy place to sneak in with dear ones. Interior is chic. Coming to food, it was one of the places where you get to eat differently tasty food. It will be so unfair if we don't talk about the "prawn crackers and pickle" that is served with drink here. Cheese filled dimsums are again one of the best picks. And last but definitely not the least, CHOCOLATE MARQUISE! IT WILL BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE AND MAKE YOUR DAY AS WELL. Chocolate at it's best. Can drop in now and then just for that one. ❤
It has the best ambience and it’s food is too amazing and it’s too good . Ambience is good as well I loved the place sooo much .
In frame : 1) Philadelphia cream cheese dimsums
2) Pork belly
3) Thai green curry with steamed rice
4) Chocolate Marquis (dessert)
Right from the dimsums to the dessert, if there's one place that aces every dish in a meal it's Ping's. Had a wonderful experience!
Favourite food items to order: Dry chicken, cream cheese dim sums, ramen, Tom kha soup.
Loved these drinks we tried:
Yours, Doctor - a concoction of cranberry juice and gin, with a touch of honey, ginger, cardamom and orange bitter.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hot Toddy - brandy and homemade spiced honey syrup with lime bitters and spices - a great evening relaxer or to cure an irritating cold!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Okay the best part of our visit was the Chocolate Marquee dessert which i highly recommend. Coming to the food, me, being on diet, went with chicken salad and my friend got the bao. Both tasted good. I would say that the price is higher than your average cafe. Other than that, really liked their hospitality!
This is a small outlet which serves oriental food. Primarily known for its dumplings, most of the dishes served here are good. The Philadelphia cream cheese dumplings and the broccoli and almond dumplings are a must try. Their mock duck bao can be avoided. The bao wasn't just made well and couldn't hold the fillings. The highway style bean curd is worth a try and the mushroom and asparagus appetizer is also an interesting preparation. Had the simple pan fried noodles, which was again good. The sauce wasn't overpowering, and the noodles were not soggy. Most fancy restaurants sometimes get basic dishes wrong. The chocolate foam with rum was nice and light. Loved the lemongrass pancotta. It was just perfect. Pings, though, is a pricy eating place.
The food and cocktails are amazing. The baos were rewlly worth it. I just fekt that the place is stuffy and small and the punk lights are a bit too much. Water chestnut cream cheese Dumplings are so yum i am still drooling lmao
We went there and ordered dimsums, shredded duck bao, chicken yakitori, nasi goreng , pahd thai, diced chicken with kimchi rice and choco truffle as dessert. Highly recommended if you are an Asian food enthusiast.. The staffs are well behaved and courteous. Also met a staff named debasish. He is an amicable and polite guy who can guide through every details if you are new to this place.
There's a reason why Park Street area is known as the Original food street of Kolkata. Despite several renowned restaurants, that have stood here for decades, serving various classic dishes over a period of time, new age food joints like Ping's Cafe Orient have made their mark and are thriving due to the ever growing demand of Asian food in the Country's unofficial Food capital.
I finally managed to visit this place along with some friends. Ambience wise, it was a perfect setting with good music and dim lighting.
Coming to the food, our orders included :
1. Shredded Duck Bao
2. Prawn Har Gow
3. Spicy Chicken Dumplings
4. Pan Fried Chicken Noodles
5. Chicken with Chilli
6. 2 Beers
7. Fresh Lime Soda
Amongst the appetizers, i was really impressed with the Shredded Duck bao and the Chicken Dumplings. The crispiness of the bao , combined with the accompanied dips made this dish an outstanding one.
Soy sauce and Basil pesto dip is a must have when having these dishes as it complements it in every way possible.
Nothing can be said regarding the noodles and chicken, because this is a dish that is always made to perfection in any Asian restaurant that I've visited.
At the end I would like to say that the overall experience was splendid.
Service was great and the food was excellent.
This place can easily be called one of the best joints for Asian fine dining in Kolkata. There is nothing not to like about this place located centrally in the restaurant hub of the city.
Coming to the food , we ordered :
Bhetki and chips(4.5/5) : A simple and classic bhetki fry coated in some tempura batter and served with a wasabi mayo dip. Some classic combinations can never really go wrong.
Pork Ramen bowl(5/5) : Had been wanting to have a hearty bowl of Ramen for a long while and this ramen certainly stood up to all my expectations. Some lean pork , black noodles , bokchoy , sprouts , shitake mushrooms , all in a light and spicy broth. Added some chilli paste for that extra burst of flavor in the mouth. Highly recommend this dish.
Teriyaki chicken and rice bowl(5/5) : A bowlful of shredded chicken, sticky rice and Asian greens tossed in my favorite teriyaki sauce. Simple and comforting flavors , all in a bowl.
Lamb Rendang Curry with Malabar Paratha(5/5) : This dish is a must have if you visit here. A thick coconut based gravy with a hint of kaffir lime , and small cubes of mutton. I have always felt restaurants here tend to overuse Thai spices in their Thai dishes , this place being an exception and a welcome change. This dish was probably the one that completely won my heart.
I would also like to mention about their staff , especially Debasish , who was appointed for our table. He not only possessed good knowledge about what goes into making a dish , but also I was pleasantly surprised to hear some facts about some spices that even I did not know.
lovely.....
drinks are like heavenly especially the spiced ice tea.....
food is like godly anything u put the finger on is all good just eat till ur heart content....
The best mocktails in the city. However it is on the pricier side. The food gets kind of repetitive and some of the items are just average. A good place overall!
Pings will definitely remind you of the streets of Thailannd. This cozy comfortable cafe is a must visit.
What we liked :
1) Dry Chicken
2) Chicken Bao
3) Chocolate marque (must try)
4) efficient service
Disappointments :
1) 10% Compulsary service tax is indeed a pinch in the pocket.
The food is very tasty. I just think it is overpriced, drinks included or maybe especially, are overpriced. For a casual dining experience I wouldn't want to create such a dent in my wallet.
Excellent food but a little over priced !! Barely saw through the menu and went by the suggestions of Debashish who was serving us, and he surely knows his business, no regrets whatsoever on ordering whatever he suggested !! Will surely visit again
One of my favourite places! Such a great place for. Gin lunch with the bestie. service is impeccable ( most of the times) food is good. Some dishes can be super heavy on garlic so let them know your preference, they will accommodate. Dim sums are awesome! So are the tofu dishes.
This should be on your must visit places for Asian Food if you are a Kolkatan or if you are coming to Kolkata. I had the Pork Char Siu Bao, Spicy Beef Salad and Nasi Goreng with Pork Skewers. I must say all them were fabulous. I had not had beef so succulent and so melt in the mouth in a while. The Pork in the Bao was so perfectly done too. The Nasi Goreng- I think I had a better one at Waldorf's but all in all a well rounded experience. They have a good array of cocktails and the Cuba Libre that I ordered was amazingly concocted. It was just so right ! Thumbs Up Guys ! Good Effort ! Only thing, I was not a fan of the seating arrangements, and do try to install a good internet network, card swipe hassles leave a bad aftertaste...
The ambience is great the food is very good right from their starters to the mains to the dessert Philadelphia cheese dumplings is a must order the staff here is extremely warm and welcoming which makes the entire experience great
Debashish, an absolute hero with his recommendations. Wok fried pork belly with lime is the best pork dish I've had in the city (and I've had a lot!) That and chocolate marquise are unmissable, must haves. Also I'd appreciate it if you guys add cheesecake to your menus since you do desserts so well (beetroot lemongrass panaco - super jiggly!) Suggestion: Ask the chef to add more wasabi to the dynamite shrimp.
Some of the stuff we ordered:
Rice with pad ka prao (the sauce was wonderful)
Spicy chicken and Peking chicken dimsums (flavourful and juicy)
Chicken teriyaki bao (really good!)
Spicy chicken salad (unnecessarily acidic)
Pho noodle soup (perfectly flavoured)
We went during lunch time, and it was a little packed. Service and staff were nice, and the drinks from the bar were really good too.
We had: the peach sangria, chasing summer, and forbidden tiki. All three were very refreshing and had fruity tastes.
Will definitely go back!
Philadelphia cream cheese dimsums,chicken hong kong noodles and chicken teriyaki bao and diced chicken are to die for..its a good place to go for a nice and pleasant dinner..desserts are also good.. We had the hot chocolate foam
Service 4/5, food 5/5, ambience is 4/5, rates are 4/5
This place is located at beside the pater cat restaurant. And opposite to Myx. Location is prompt. Interior was nice, Staff's were very much courteous. Foods were very much tasty. Especially #Bibimbap. Yes definitely recommendable...
Perfect hangout for teenagers. Park street is a hub of best restaurants with different cuisines . Many colleges and offices are there. I think basically for the students it is chillax place to hangout.
Ambience is so club like and more like british cafes kind of place with beautiful music going in the background. Mainly this place is famous for Asian foods including dumplings,dimsums,some japanese foods,some thailand foods,some korean foods!!
Quality and quantity is really appreciable and that too in a reasonable price.
Also its a great place for family hangouts too.
Staffs are really polite and warming.
Very famous among college goers.
I had wok tossed dynamite shrimp. It was super yummy.must try..you guys should totally try it!
I had chicken yakitori..this was super good too but a little bit salty
and i had chicken gyoza which tastes more like a dumpling guys !! This was really good i must say guyssss
I always bring guests to Pings Cafe Orient and it's also one of my absolute favourite restaurants.
Love the food especially the rice stew with mushrooms & duck.
Very happy with the service. I would especially like to mentioned Mr.Debashish & Mr. Charles who were very helpful with helping us with meal.
Excellent food and great service !!! The philadelphia cream cheese dimsum is a must try. Find Gautam at the restaurant for recommendations.
Located few blocks from Peter Cat, this Park Street cafe is such a delight. We had gone on a busy Saturday noon without booking and on seeing the crowd I was pretty sure we have to wait for a long time. But extremely helful staff and management and their quick service ensured we get a table very soon. I was particularly blown by the Philly cheese dimsums.We tried the other dimsums and sushis and my sushi-loving heart was extremely happy with each one. Mind you the servings are quite a lot for 2 people and we over ordered - fish, Singapore street food styled rice and chicken and the amazing baos. Must go back for more.
Loved the place. Have been here with friends. Lovely music and good food...
Philadelphia cream cheese dumplings were heaven 😍
Rest evry snacks and main course were amazing...
I love this place and keep on getting back here again and again. The Philadelphia cream cheese mushroom dumplings are amazing here! The stir fried lamb is also good. All the dumplings are worth trying out atleast once. I am in love with the sangria of this place. They use Raspberry in the preparation which makes the taste even more memorable!

Rating 4/5
Simply loved this place for amazing food
The only reason I am rating it 4/5 is because of the dessert.
I really think they can do better in case of dessert.
Recommendation to people visiting ping pong- definitely try cheese dimsums, they literally are one of the finest and bursts in your mouth.
Absolutely loved my meal here, pings has been on the cards for quite some time but somehow never managed to go. Asian food is a weakness for me and pings transported me elsewhere. Memories of Thailand and Singapore were refreshed.
The signature cream cheese dumplings were like magic on the tastebuds. Velvety rich and the contrast of Chili oil created harmony on the palette
The duck bao was absolutely scrumptious. The meat was beautifully cooked and the baos were like clouds, there was a riot of textures on the mouth.
Absolutely adored the nasi goreng. Tad bit higher on the soy but the flavors were so authentic and made me fall in love with the entire dish. One of the closest to the ones I've had abroad.
Cannot miss out on the duck spring roll either. Crisp on the outside and soft inside with robust flavors much. Loved it!
Loved the smart use of space and the decor assures me that the place was made with a lot of love.
Overall a brilliant experience and can't wait to go back again.
This is the 2nd time am visiting this place and i like the ambience and the food both.
It is always crowded during the weekends and the crowd itself says that this place is a must try.
The food out here is delicious.
The starter and the main course,both are awesomely tasty.
The food served here is always an absolute delight..
The photos are that of:
1. Nasi goreng: served with prawn papad, chutney, chicken skewers, and flavoured rice with poached egg.
2. Thai red curry which is served with sticky rice
3. Chili pork dry which is moderately spicy
4. Diced chicken extrememly flavoursome
5. Tom yum spup which was astounding
6. Dimsums
Quirky interiors, snazzy cocktails and polite staff, that kind of sums up my experience at Ping's. They were nice enough to accommodate my girlfriend and me even though they had advance reservation, don't know how they managed, but grateful nonetheless
Went with family on a Sunday afternoon.The starters that we ordered were abosolutely class A. The Duck Bao is far better than any other bao I have tasted in Kolkata. The array of sauces are also splendid. Each has its own unique flavour . The only suggestion I would give is that the quantity or portions of the main course should be slightly increased given the price. Most of the noodles are not even a single serve. Though the taste was far superior to other places that serve this sort of food the dismal portions should be given more attention. Will visit again soon😊👍
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!
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.
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.
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 ♥️
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.
This is my second time here and it has been a good experience. We tried the Philadelphia creme cheese dimsum which was cheesy and very heavy.Its a steamed dimsum with lot of cream cheese which makes for a weird texture but great with the side spicy sauce. Maybe some thinly sliced, slightly pickled ginger would really accentuate the taste by bringing more character to the dimsum . The charcoal roast pork was good with a well balanced flavor. The one that stood out for me was the slow simmered bhetki, it was spicy, flavorful and came with a side of sticky rice which hit all the right spots in my taste bud. I also liked the kimchi sticky rice and I recommend that. The healthy chicken , that's the name I believe was tasty but I would not categorize that as healthy. Overall this is a nice place with a huge spread, large portion sizes and friendly staff.
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.
The food is appetizing, especially the Philadelphia Cheese Dim Sum, they are filled with flavour and cheese! Laksa and Ramen were equally delicious, and the quantity is definitely worth the price.
The place has a nice youthful vibe, and the staff is co-operative and their service is quick.
The food here is excellent, and I one of the best duck dishes in the city here. However the portion sizes are tiny, especially given the price, and not every dish is worth it.
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.
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
I don't have enough words to explain how much I loved this place. The foods are damn damnnn tasty. It's a hidden gem in Park Street. Great ambiance and definitely I will visit again....
It's a cozy place to be in. And the food great. So are the cocktails. If you need to go to cozy place with good food in Park Street, you might want to try this one. This place won't disappoint. It's definitely a worthy addition to the already existing iconic places in Park Street. The food will definitely not disappoint you.
Absolutely love the food here, although a little expensive, all their items are incredible, specially their pork bao and chocolate foam with rum. The seating area is well decorated and cosy. They serve alcohol and have a bar inside the restaurant.
This place is amazing!!!!
A must visit, ofc! The food is as good as the portion. Would suggest to try the ramen, Khao suey, and the matcha baked sandesh cheesecake.
The food might be a little pricey but it's worth it!
One of the best places in Kolkata to try Pan Asian food. Absolutely love their super cool ambience. The food here is amazing. Do give their Philadelphia Cream Cheese Dimsum a try! Also, the baos, cocktails and curries are a must have.
