Whenever one hears about Chinese food (think noodles, fried rice, chilly chicken and spring rolls) delicious flavor memories immediately pop into our heads. Kids can live on it, adults love it and elders can’t ignore it. After hearing some great feedback and seeing one of the best home delivery Chinese menus I’ve ever encountered, I was really keen on experiencing the food at Chin Chin.
We decided to call some friends to my place and ordered well in advance, so the victuals could be delivered by 8pm to our place. The food arrived before time and was delivered by a polite and well groomed delivery boy from Chin Chin. The packaging of the food was excellent with neatly packed sauces and chopsticks included. Though we were planning to serve the food in our own crockery, we found the packaging to be quite presentable for a casual dinner.
We ordered Dry Chilly Chicken (190), Pepper Winglets (150) & Lotus Root Double Dragon (170) as appetizers and Chicken Garlic Sauce (225), Veg Manchurian (140), Fish black pepper (275), Mixed fried rice (190), Chicken Hakka noodles (140), & Veg fried rice (120) for the main courses. The portion sizes were good and would have been sufficient for 8 (we were 4, with the appetite of 8). The food, especially the Fish Black Pepper and Veg Manchurian were made very well, though both the Chilly Chicken and Chicken Garlic Sauce could have been more tender. The Lotus Double Dragon was nice, but had softened on it’s way to our place, which was understandable.
Inspite of the slightly congealed gravy (due to the time it lay before being served), I would say this was the best home delivered Chinese we’ve eaten till date. The combined experience of a great menu, good packaging, delicious food… and of course, the company of good friends made for a lovely evening.
Please note, Chin Chin currently do not accept credit cards on delivery and do not have a clear policy on minimum order amount for delivery. Depending on the distance, the minimum order amount can vary from Rs250-Rs600.
Sid…Photos clicked by you look delicious. Am hungry again.
Hey people this is good news. Can you also post the address and phone number, such that it becomes easy for some one to use this information readily – use your recomendations so to say! Thanks.
Hi Tarun…Thanks for the feedback. The outlet contact number is 0124-4841111
Is this an India outpost of the terribly mediocre California based Chinese restaurant chain? I certainly hope not
You are right Thalassa. This chain has outlet only in Dubai, Sharjah, & Gurgaon(India)
Pawan..Thanks for the valuable feedback..The dishes look delicious and the place sounds as one good option for gurgaonites looking out for some good chinese experience…have one query though..what is chin chin’s usp which differentiates it from biggies like mainland china
Amit, Thanks for liking the article. Personally, I love Mainland China and it remains my favourite for dine in. Since I have never ordered from Mainland China, will not be able to comment on their home delivery expertise. Chin Chin prices are lower than Mainland China possibly because they currently do not invest in expensive real estate, and this could well be their USP.
Tks…so this makes chin chin a good joint for ordering some hot, tasty food in the non retreating and overwhelming monsoons
Good Article. Another place to explore while we have guest by surprise.
Sounds great experience, can’t wait for weekend to order few delicacies….
Wow! don know ab8 the food but after reading 1st 3 lines…I wanna hav chinese food today!

Hello everyone,
I have tried out the in-house dining facilities of Chin Chin a few times (since my office is next door) thinking it will be better the next time – but alas, it fails everytime! The menu looks great – very innovative – they have pictures for all everything and it all looks delicious. But the food is average. The soups are so so and the the chicken dishes seem to have more cornflour than anything else. The taste leaves much to be desired. I would say it is expensive compared to the kind of food served. I would definitely not recommend it.
