Nanking Restaurant & Bakery — Restaurant in West Bengal

🌟The Best Momos in Town🌟

Its January 2022, Darjeeling seems to be going through a very rough time, very tough time when it comes to felicitating tourists. Almost all the shops are getting closed early in the evening. Don't who is to be blamed, the Chilling weather or the lack of tourists.

I came accross this Restaurant after have walked from Summit Hermon Hotel in search for Darjeeling's Darling Momos... After having disappointed to see the name/ fame shops like Kunga and few others closed.

Its a cozi place with a variety of things on the menu. I was amazed to find an Italian Dish to be the Speciality of the Day. I ordered MOMO, Veg, Chicken, Steam & Fried.. all kinds. I did have some reservations because I had not come across this name in any review or youtube video earlier...but in my heart I had a feeling, how can people of Darjeeling go wrong with Momo?

I will not bore you more...

The Momos were great... Just Lips Smacking and light coated Juicy Deliciousness. In fact I am left to believe that probably this is one of the best Momos in Darjeeling. A must try for new comers and the not so food experts & Food reviewers.

The next time if I come to Darjeeling, I would like to see this place to have survived and welcomed by everyone.

Thank you and...

Edit:

Quality of food has deteriorated drastically after they have expanded. Would not recommend to anyone anymore. Pork dishes are filthy with pork hair still present, skin not removed. Less meat in every dish. Overall lesser quantity than before. Unjustified pricetags wrt quality and quantity.

First review written on: 18/03/2021, 09:56 am Nanking is a great place for eating. It's situated above Boney's. We ordered multiple items on multiple visits. Their momo was, hands down, one of the best and juiciest momos in whole Darjeeling. Trust me, you'll rarely find such juicy momo anywhere. The thukpa was fantastic too. The pricetags of the pahari-cuisines are quite good. Speaking of which, the pricetags of the world-cuisines are a bit on the higher side. Pasta, noodles, and other speciality foods are a bit costly compared to the quantity. But the taste and quality are superb. Chilly pork, bibimbap (a Korean rice meal), pasta all were fantastic. We had their cheesecake also. It was so delicious. Added bonus is that they accept digital payment (something which is rare in Darjeeling). Mr. Nanking Rai and Ms. Priyanka are very...

Horrible experience of dining at Nanking. We ordered an American Chopsuey, 2 burgers and tomato soup on 27th Oct. We were seated around 7.45 pm. The order in which we were served were American Chopsuey, 2 burgers and tomato soup, all topsy turvy and that too after waiting for more than an hour. They exactly have one chef, one server, and one owner and of course one stove.

Two burgers took them more than 45 mins to land on our table.

There were no glasses provided, we had to ask for that and the water served was stinking of chlorine. When burger was served the server put the plate on table without individual plates. We had to request for plates.The American Chopsuey was covered in so much food colour that it looked like my husband was wearing lipstick.

Finally the soup was served , horrible tasting , and I lost it when I discovered a fly floating on my soup.

The place is horrible and don't spoil your holiday by visiting this restaurant, that is if you are...
