What is astonishing about Chinese food in India is that, except if you go to a chain café, you'll barely track down a similar dish in two spots. Try not to misunderstand me since every one of these spots have similarly prepared prawns, blended seared rice, chicken soup, etc.; however, each spot has its touch in the dish. I think the complete flexibility of cooking in this nation is the thing that makes it so well known. Each area has its go-to Chinese joint in Bangalore - a spot we wind up calling or going to for explicit oriental yearnings. While I wouldn't exchange the more modest Chinese joints for anything abundant, the city has a couple of high-end food Chinese cafés that serve incredible food, regardless of whether they are far more costly. Those are saved for uncommon events and days when I feel generous. Here's my rundown of top choices, both extravagant and humble restaurants -

A generally open climate, with brilliant lights and available seating - it tried to introduce skillet Asian food in a more refined, at this point wallet well-disposed way.
