PVR the brand which needs no introduction in the film entertainment industry, has started its services in the hospitality industry as well. Mr. Hong, the all day dining oriental cuisine restaurant was launched in January and started its full operations in the Orion Mall.
Apple, Ginger and Mint cooler
Asian food is always one of the best foods in the world and it will be even better when we enjoy those foods in a restaurant with beautiful Asian restaurant interiors.
Mr.Hong's interiors gives a mood of a tea house similar to the ones in the South East Asian countries. There were sauces, Chinese Porcelain Products etc. for display. I was in love with the large lamp shades placed on either sides of the owners of our bloggers tables.
As soon as we settled, we were served the authentic Jasmine tea and later on some mocktails. I ordered for Mr.Hong's signature cooler made with Apple, mint and ginger and was very refreshing cool.
Asian soups are traditionally prepared and consumed in the cultures of Asia. Such soups are usually based solely on broths and lacking in dairy products such as milk or cream. The soup served to us was Tom Yum Chicken soup. It is a hot and sour soup made with authentic Thai flavours of coriander, fish sauce, chilli and basil. I liked the flavour of the soup and it was appetising.

Dim sum is usually linked with the older tradition from yum cha (tea tasting), which has its roots in travelers on the ancient Silk Road. It refers to a style of Cantonese food prepared as small bite-sized or individual portions of food traditionally served in small steamer baskets or on small plates. Dimsums served to us were hot and cooked to perfection.

The head Chef Amit prepared a unique item called pickled lotus stem for the vegetarians. It has got a huge amount of nutritional value besides being tasty. The other served were Kung Po Chicken, Wok fried string beans with shredded chicken, Crispy Chinese scallion sesame buns etc..
A delicious dinner is great, but dessert makes it better. Peach cobbler with butterscotch ice cream was served and it was finished swiftly.

As the restaurant is newly opened the is lot of room for improvement on service part. I felt it could have been much faster. Having said that I would also like to mention about Mr Rakesh Gurung, an expert in the F&B operations in the hospitality industry; took care of us and made us feel comfortable and ease.
On the whole a perfect evening spent at a cozy place and I would definitely recommend all my friends to visit it.
I give 3.5/5 as my rating.
