Must Visit Chinese Restaurant in Kolkata! @manthansonghai ✨ Song Hai, a culinary gem in Kolkata’s Dalhousie, was born when Mrs. Lim, a visionary Chinese entrepreneur, blended local flavors with Chinese cuisine during the British era. It became a hotspot for the elite, introducing the city to beloved Calcutta Chinese fusion dishes. After Mrs. Lim’s departure, her nephew, Mr. Chiu, kept the legacy alive for decades. In 2013, the Manthan Group took over, preserving its heritage while giving it a fresh, modern vibe yet keeping the same old Calcutta charm. Reopened in 2014 as Manthan Songhai, it retains its authentic charm, with chefs cooking up Mrs. Lim’s original treasured recipes. Today, Songhai remains a warm, welcoming space where tradition meets community, and every meal celebrates culinary heritage. * Recommendations: Bamboo fish, Chicken Lat mai kai, Golden fried prawn, Songhai special fish, Cantonese noodles crispy, Fried rice double happiness, Songhai special prawn, Songhai special chicken, Dragon fish & Tutti fruiti ~ Location: 3 Waterloo Street, Kolkata 700069 (near Lalit hotel) ~ Timings: 11.30am to 11pm ~ Pocket pinch for two: ₹900+ #ManthanSonghai #kolkatafoodie #ChineseFood #kolkata #restaurants [ Old Calcutta vibes, Restaurants of Kolkata, Manthan Songhai, Kolkatafoodie, Iconic Restaurant, Chinese Food, Best Chinese, Hidden Gem, Chinese food in Kolkata ]
