  Was here last week on a weekday, for a lunch with a friend of mine. The place wasn’t much crowded. Shanghai Chef and Kobe Sizzlers share the space and probably have the same management. The waiter handed us the menus from both the places.Ambience at this place is decent. Service is above average. We ordered Veg dumplings, Honey chilli cauliflower and Thai green curry with steamed rice. Apparently, not all the items from their menu are covered under Zomato gold. Thai curries and some of their chef specials aren’t a part of Zomato gold.Honey chilli cauliflower tasted delicious. Wasn’t the best Thai curry I ever had but was still above par. However, a suggestion that they serve jasmine rice instead of basmati rice. Dumplings tasted average.Ambience – 4Service – 4Taste – 3.5Value for money – 4__________________Overall – 4Would definitely love to visit the place again. Also would be great if all their dishes are covered under Zomato gold.

  We were four friends and planning for lunch and one my friend suggest me to go to shanghai chef Gachibowli. We reached there, and I always look at the ambiance because it gives us positive vibes. The ambiance of Shanghai Chef was excellent, neat, and clean. Well-trained staff with their dress code were good to see.We started our lunch with their special soups, crab meat soup, and drunken prawns soup. Both are new for me, but the crab meat soup was just mind-blowing the taste, and it was the first time I tried that soup, and we always say that the first impression is the last impression, and here the first impression was the best.Then my friend ordered some starters volcano chicken, Phuket fish, dim sum basket, and oyster chicken. Volcano chicken was just lip-smacking, and this was the first starter dish we ordered, and it was only the best. The chicken was well cooked and top cover with egg and some veggies.Then next we moved to their special dish that is Phuket fish.I am, the seafood lover where ever I go I must try seafood but here the Phuket fish which I had was just out of the world I never tried fish like this really must recommend dish at shanghai chef.Then we ordered some main courses. In the main course, we ordered Nasi goring nen, Thai curry, and phad Thai chicken. Overall the main course was excellent, and the best was nasi Goren nen and Thai curry.The best part to end our lovely lunch with my bunch of friends was some desserts. My friend calls me a dessert boy because at every place I select the desserts. Here I ordered Fried ice cream and daarsan; both are my favorite desserts.Lastly, I must say they gave us a good discount for corporate lunch, and this is a must-visit to enjoy with your family and friends.Must try: (based on my opinion)Phuket fishVolcano chickenChocolate rushFall in loveNasi Goren nenThai curryFried ice cream.

  Well, who doesn’t live for Chinese food? We all have cravings for Chinese cuisine sometimes and what we really need is a place that we can afford, get good quantity and ambience as well. Shanghai Chef is a fine dining restaurant place specialized in Asian delicacies where you can experience the Chinese culture through their delicious food and neat,authentic ambience. This place is amongst the most popular Chinese restaurants in Hyderabad which serves very good quantity along with quality. It also offers authentic Thai & Burmese dishes as well. It is a go-to place for all and has a menu which caters to all kind of taste buds. They started from the restaurant located at Vinayak Nagar, Gachibowli and now one more outlet at Financial district & are coming up shortly with a third outlet. The restaurant is located in the most popular lane of Indiranagar Gachibowli, just above HDFC bank & they have done some interesting additions to their menu. The new items include starters as well as main courses. I had the chance of going to this place for trying out couple of these items on the menu. The new additions offer fresh choices to the fans of Chinese food in Gachibowli. Also, it is one of the few places serving Chinese food which has catered to the platter needs for the vegetarians as well while enhancing the menu. The place is quiet popular among the young IT crowd in & around Gachibowli. The place can easily accomodate about 40-45 folks and is facing the Gachibowli Road for what ever its worth. Here’s presenting the list of delicacies:1. Volcano Chicken – Crispy spicy chicken in a Thai chilli and garlic sauce topped with egg white. This had different flavours when tasted with the egg white & without the egg white. The taste of both of which were equally good.2. Phuket Fish – Fish coated with lots of finely chopped onions, ginger and garlic tossed up in soy sauce and chilli, thereby giving this dish a spicy yet flavourful touch. A tasty yet yummy dish not to be missed.3. Black Pepper Chicken – Small chunks of chicken coated in black pepper & sauted with veggies. This was a bit blank in terms of flavour which can be improved with the combination of spices.4. Assorted Dimsums – An amalgamation of Kothe, Shu Mai & Szechuan dumplings, all of which equally tasted well in terms of flavours.5. Crab Meat Soup & Drunken Prawn Soup – Minced crab meat cooked in a thick spicy garlic flavoured soup which tasted absolutely marvellous. Prawn chunks cooked in a thick spicy garlic & spinach flavoured soup which tasted equally delicious.6. Grass Hopper – A combination of Khush syrup, crushed litchi, dash of lime & topped with 7up.7. Fall in Love – A combination of crushed strawberry, dash of lime with sugar syrup. This was the clear winner among the two beverages as it tasted so refreshing which can be also stated as a Pure Detox drink.8. Burmese Khow Seuy – Steamed noodles with Burmese styled curry served with condiments. This dish instantly made us remember Goa as the taste of coconut milk in the curry was so rich and flavourful. Although the name of the dish is from different region altogether, the dish was simply a straight six.9. Oyster Chicken – Chicken chunks cooked till perfection in authentic Hong Kong Oyster sauce.10. Nasi Goreng Rice – Fluffy rice which was sauteed with assorted veggies with meat of your choice. This dish tasted awesome in terms of the flavours which were spinning around. A must try when at Shanghai Chef.11. Thai Green Curry with Steamed Rice – Chicken chunks cooked in coconut milk, Green curry paste which was served with Steamed rice & tasted equally well. The flavours of the green curry & coconut milk popped out as soon as we ate it.12. Phad Thai noodles – Flat Noodles sauteed with fresh veggies, peanuts and meat/seafood of your choice. This was one of the good Phad thai noodles I have tasted in Hyderabad.After having such a start with some great entrees and delicious mains, it was the moment of truth wherein I was looking forward to the finale of the meal aka dessert & my meal is just incomplete without it. We were presented with some great & quite authentic dessert which fitted into the menu aptly. Here’s presenting the list of desserts:13. Chocolate Rush – A beverage consisting of Pineapple juice, chocolate sauce topped with vanilla ice cream.14. Fried Ice cream – Breaded scoop of ice cream that was quickly deep fried thereby giving a warm, crispy shell around the chilly ice cream inside.15. Daarsan with Vanilla ice cream – A Chinese snack which is mainly honey dipped chips was served with vanilla ice cream. This one instantly melted in our mouths and was a clear winner among the desserts served.Overall, Shanghai Chef 2 restaurant situated in Gachibowli Hyderabad is a budget friendly restaurant and has lot of choices to try out in terms of authentic Asian delicacies.
