Big Wong, D Block Market, Vasant Vihar, New Delhi

Let us move on over the Chinese dishes created in Indian flavours. Because authenticity of experience is so in demand these days. We wish to savour the real flavours of the Oriental and Thai dishes and this is where Big Wong comes in.

Let me get straight to the point. Big Wong is one if the few places high in flavours – the subtlety of their dimsums and non vegetarian preparations is a force to reckon with. And the ambience is a tad bit different from classy oriental environment. They have an amazing collection of retro, rock n roll and heavy metal songs which amps up the atmosphere.

I had a beautiful dinner there recently and I am able to recreate my experience here:

Chicken dimsums in thai herbs: I am amazed at the super soft and moist skin of the dimsums offered by Big Wong. And this particular one was no different. Add to it the sweet thai sauce with the prominence of lemon grass and what you get is an explosion of flavours. And let us not forget the freshness of the minced chicken. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Chicken dimsums in home made sauce: This one was responsible for giving me a major cough and sneeze attack. Because I was already suffering from cold and this was fiery hot with red chilli kernels dipped in soy sauce. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for spice lovers.

Prawn dimsums in thai herb: Whole prawns wrapped in soft dimsum sheets and topped with a light and sweet sauce. The freshness of lemongrass is so profound here, giving you an authentic Thai experience. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Thai basil fish: How can these guys make simple fish dish so out of the world? The fish pieces had a slightly crispy exterior and mushy interiors and were hot yet sweet in taste. The freshness of the fish is commendable here. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Chicken sake wine: If the softness of the chicken can be retained even after cooking it in heavy sauces, then the chef should be given an award. The chicken was so delicate and soft with ginger dominating the flavours. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Crab stick: Fresh and sweet as expected.

Tuna nigiri: Sweet again

Prawn dumplings: Soft again with the fineness of prawn mince.

Corn and water chestnut dumplings: The freshness and crunchiness of water chestnut compliments the delicateness of sweet corn kernels. RECOMMENDED

Crystal chicken dumplings: Moist to the core with super thin skin, this one is a tad bit different from the crystal dumplings served at other outlets. RECOMMENDED

Spicy salmon roll: Crispy but smelly and not very spicy.

Curry prawn dumplings: If you are a fan of the famed Thai green curry, you will fall head over heels with this one. The dainty prawn dumplings are warm and firm and adorned with a fine thai green curry. The profoundness of coconut milk, lemon grass and thai herbs is relishing.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
