I was excited at the prospect of Chinese Indian in montreal. After Dosas it was the thing I missed the most from back home in Bangalore where some would argue you have the best Chindian restos. I went to some in Jersey and they were amazing.
I ordered Salateen to go, so please factor that in my review.
I ordered the manchurian chicken, 1 chicken fried rice, and mixed platter (small). Total was $38!!!!
Rice was tasteless and very dry (might have been better if I ate there). Portion was ok here.
Manchurian had that taste so flavoring was right but portion was tiny. Chindian portions are usually abundant.
MIxed platter was decent but nothing Sana (on Jarry) can't pull off for half the price.
I am a pretty good cook but cannot manage making Chindian. If someone out there reads this and can cook this stuff, please open a resto. I will bring clients by the dozens. It's the one thing I hate about Montreal, not having that deep fried fix.
There is one thing that really says Chindian for me, that vinegar with chillies they serve as a condiment doused over chicken Hakka noodles...Not happening here.
Soooo disappointed.
