A friend of mine visited Peking Tom a few weeks back and could not
stop raving about it. Being a foodie I had to visit this place. Finally
last Saturday I had the opportunity to set foot in this restaurant with
my husband.
Here is my experience:
It was 10 in the night and the place was pretty packed. The
restaurant has a typical Chinese décor and is set up with red Chinese
chandeliers. It is dimly lit which gave the feel of a candle light
dinner environment. However, the funky Asian fusion hit music of Stereo
Nation made the place very lively and energetic.
Peking Tom specializes in Chinese and Thai cuisine. The menu is extensive with chicken, lamb, pork and seafood to choose from.
The tom yum soup was a little tangy, a little spicy and very tasty. I
was a little sceptical about Tom Yum (because of a bad experience in
the past). But this one changed my opinion.
The TShangai chicken and Red Chilli squid
(suggested by the waiter) for starters were simply
delectable. Squid was cooked to perfection as was the chicken.Vegetable Peking Rice and Chicken Chilli Garlic were simply delicious.
Lastly
Located on a not so wide street and surrounded by many others restaurants, parking would have been a problem. But valet parking saved us the time and pain of finding a parking spot, hence making this a lovely evening .The food, the ambience and the extremely courteous and polite staff, make Peking Tom an absolute winner. The cost of dining for two is around 1200/- and is acceptable given the tasty food.
Verdict: Highly recommended.
