Iconic Royal China Launches New Menu; Celebrates 20th Anniversary

What started out of pure love for Chinese food has now become a much-loved destination, delivering a culinary experience like no other.

Royal China celebrates 20 years and remains as iconic as ever and continues to be a favorite amongst Bollywood celebrities, industrialists, business tycoons, influencers, and many others.

The restaurant is all set to begin a new culinary chapter by bringing new additions to its menu.

The acclaimed Chinese restaurant was founded by Neville and Michelle Vazifdar with the aim of bringing an impressive Asian fine dining experience to the masses.

"Our Chinese fine dining concept has worked out well. Oriental cuisine has garnered fans all over India, so we wanted to set the bar high by combining this with an elevated dining experience," shared Neville, who had returned from England with a business degree in the early 2000s. That's when he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps by entering the F&B space by opening Royal China in 2003 at Fort. Since then, they have brought Royal China to Bandra, Pune, and other cities such as Delhi and Kolkata. 

Complementing the culinary exuberance of Royal China is its modern, minimalist decor and interiors, which will give you a sense of serenity and ease. The interiors bathed in hues of white, grey, black, and brown lend a refined yet relaxed vibe. This can be seen in both the Royal China outlets in Fort and Bandra, with the interiors of the former having been fully revamped from what they used to be about 20 years ago. This was done in order to make the restaurant move with the times. All in all, the place has a calm and comforting atmosphere that you will never want to leave.

"Our vision is to take Royal China all over India. We are passionate about making people fall in love with the authentic culinary wonders of the Cantonese world," added Michelle Vazifdar, the force behind Royal China and their other two restaurants Jia and Kuai Kitchen. 

Some of the flavorsome delicacies that you’ve got to try out include Seafood Bird Nest, Honey Chilli Potato, Pan Fried Scallion Pancake, Kung Pao Prawns, Stir Fried Pork With Ginger, Prawns in Hot Garlic Sauce, Sweet Chilli Tenderloin, Tenderloin and Broccoli in Oyster Sauce, and Crab Fried Rice, among others. 

Complementing the ultra-modern and elaborate food menu, the beverage programme at Royal China is a modern reincarnation of exquisitely crafted cocktails, inspired to help drinkers discover multi-dimensional cocktails from the bold to the subtle. The bar menu includes a great and varied selection of wines, champagnes, spirits, cocktails, and mocktails.

“We are grateful that Royal China has garnered the support of all Asian lovers in Bombay and Pune for over 2 decades and we look forward to welcoming everyone for the launch of the new menu,” added Michelle.
