    I doubt Chinese Mirch in New York is really their first Indo Chinese restaurant
    Posted by Roland Tanglao on 3/25/04; 11:23:03 PM
    From the Restaurants dept.

    Wonder if the Chinese Mirch is better than Green Lettuce and the other Indo Chinese restaurants in Vancouver. I doubt it.

    From Manhattan's first Indo-Chinese restaurant now open

    QUOTE

    (PRWEB) February 5, 2004--While the tandoori naan, the chicken tikkas, the dosas and the mango lassis made their way to New York decades ago, Chinese Mirch is the first to bring the Indo- Chinese cuisine to Manhattan. An immensely popular cuisine in India, it is a fusion of wok style cooking with Indian herbs and spices especially the green and red chilies. The food is zesty, flavorful and a refreshing change from the ubiquitous Indian curries.

    The owner of Chinese Mirch, Vik Lulla, a third generation restaurateur from India has recreated authentic dishes that draw ecstatic praises from the Indians in Manhattan who have been craving this food from back home for the longest time . One can't get enough of the 'chili chicken' a fiery stir fried chicken dish, the 'crispy schezuan lamb' prepared with shredded lamb that is painstakingly cooked twice to tenderize it and then made crisp or the 'manchurian prawns' - tiger prawns cooked to perfection in a sauce with minced onions, garlic and green chilies all of which are hand grinded for several hours to get the right texture. The 'vegetable shanghai' is the vegan favorite- minced vegetable balls prepared in a vibrant red sauce with just the right heat.
