The Verdict - If Indian Chinese food is your thing, do not miss!
Indian Chinese food has become a staple meal for every Indian. It's humble roots originating in Kolkata (Calcutta), the Chinese were quick to learn that Indians love their food spicy, oily and red. Come to think of it, what really makes Indian Chinese food popular is the "Indianness" of it. The Chinese were quick to figure this out and simply masala-fried and greased their cuisine into a gluttonous delight bestowing them with the lethal formula for success in the Indian food market.
Haiking, hasn't forgotten this lethal recipe. They've expanded into the high-heeled Jubilee Hills market and are still trying to find their feet here. Parking is a problem and some of the waiters are yet to be trained, but the chefs' secret recipes remain the same.
Keeping with my Haiking tradition of Ginger Chicken, Spring Rolls, Fried Wanton with Garlic Sauce, Chilly Fish and Fried Rice, I religiously ordered my favourites. I could have easily fed an army of ten with these quantities, but I come from a family that strictly follows an "I-don't-share-my-food" policy.
The ginger chicken was tender, generously bathed in ginger sauce and the spring rolls were nicely oily, triggering signals in my brain saying "Eat, eat eat!" The garlic sauce that came with the wantons was not watered down but rather thick, acting as a perfect combination, almost like an alloy. The ambrosial fish is fresh and spicy, leaving me craving for more. And the fried rice, is just as you expect it to be, typically Indian Chinese.
The nodding waiters, good food and the comfortable ambiance makes for a good dinner or lunch. That's the good news. The bad news is that parking is a problem and the building being under construction, can be of a nuisance.
Come here with your family or a bunch of friends. If you have to take someone culinary tasting to try out some spicy, red, oily and incredibly tasting, "authentic" Indian Chinese food, bring them here. If you have any plans of starting a family soon, this is probably not the place for you - unless of course, you're a regular already.
If you don't mind slightly expensive Indian Chinese, then, happy eating!
