Calcutta Imperial Dragon Restaurant’s

The Verdict

Imperial Dragon. Indian Chinese cuisine, Sino-Indian cuisine, or Desi-Chinese cuisine is a distinct fusion culinary style that combines aspects of both Indian and Chinese foods and flavours. Indian cuisine reflects an thousands years of various groups and cultures interacting with the Indian subcontinent, leading to diversity of flavours and regional cuisines found in modern-day India.The most popular origin story of the fusion food resides with the Chinese of Calcutta, who immigrated to British Raj India looking for work opening restaurant businesses in the area. These early Chinese food sellers adapted their culinary styles to suit the tastes of the Indians in order for Chinese food sellers to keep earning money from the Indians. Calcutta Chinese food was at one time the most famous and authentic in India. Some would go as far as saying that it (Calcutta Chinese food) is the Godfather of Indian Chinese.The portions were generous and surprisingly, not spicy, at least for my taste.
