Chifonets — Restaurant in Kannur

Ordered a lot of food as part of a family get together.. But disappointed like anything.. We had ordered both veg and non veg food since there were people who were purely veg but everything came together without any naming over the cover.. We tried hard to taste/smell to differentiate veg from non veg, but failed miserably. We made the veg people eat non veg.. Won't forgive you chifonets forever. To add to the woes, the food tasted utterly awful with the butter naan lacking any butter and 10Rs poratta that we get from street vendors seems better.. The fried rice was way below average.. Ordered three soups.. One veg two non veg but all three that we got were non veg.. Even in the goby fry that we ordered, there were chicken pieces!! This is the most horrible order I ever had in my life. Hotels like this should not exist. guys don't dare to order and eat from here bcs you never know what they're gonna give you.. Everything looks overspiced with a lot of ajinomoto. Thank you chifonets for making us remember the value...

Calm and quiet as well as clean restaurant with maintaining Covid protocol. But regarding to food, i'm really disappointed. 1st no waiter came to take order and then the cashier tool the order. I think, He is also the owner and he took the starters order. Ordered momos, manchow soup, spring roll and something dry of chicken. Starters were good. But then waited for a while and waiter came to take order. Ordered naan and chilli chicken and also vegetables fried rice and chicken fried rice. Naan was black in colour on one side as it was burnt. Chilli chicken, it was like the manchow soup only chicken pieces and gravy with no salt or spice or any other taste. It was just a thick gravy of chicken. There was no chicken pieces to be seen in fried rice. It was same like vegetable fried that we ordered. Heard about the restaurant very much but not at all the taste...

Consistently good food. Best in Kannur for Chinese especially. This is a place I've been having food from over more than 20 years, now that I think of it.

Their Chinese dishes have always been a big hit and the quantity (as you can see in the pictures) is huge.

This series of photos here is from 2021 - ordered a takeaway. The mixed fried rice of theirs is one of the tastiest you can get in Kannur. The schezwan fried rice is good too. Of the two non vegetarian side dishes here, I preferred the hunan prawns over the chicken Manchurian even though the latter was pretty good too. Again, so many pieces in both dishes.

The vegetarian starter was spicy fried cauliflower which was decent.

Parking tends to be an issue in this place always but when a take away or home delivery option is available, I think it's worth it to have the best in...
