Nestled in the vibrant heart of Kolkata, Ming Room by Trincas stands as a legendary culinary destination, redefining Chinese cuisine in the city for decades. Located at 17, Park Street, Taltala, Kolkata, West Bengal, this iconic establishment first opened its doors in 1983, pioneering the introduction of spicy Sichuan-style food to Kolkata's evolving palate. It quickly established itself as a beloved spot, initiating a "food revolution" and garnering long queues of eager diners.
Ming Room by Trincas is renowned for its authentic Sichuan cuisine, characterized by its bold flavors, generous use of chillies, and aromatic garlic, a stark contrast to the predominantly Cantonese and Hakka influences that prevailed at the time. The menu masterfully blends cherished heritage recipes with innovative modern dishes, catering to both traditionalists and contemporary diners. Highlights include the fiery Minced Pork Sichuan Style, infused with fried peanuts and a lip-numbing Sichuan peppercorn kick, the simple yet exquisite Basil Garlic Fried Rice, and the historic Dragon Chicken, prepared with their legendary Ming '83 chilli paste. Vegetarians and health-conscious guests will appreciate options like Salt & Pepper Zucchini, Crunchy Tamarind Aubergine, and a variety of healthy stir-fries. Patrons have consistently praised the restaurant's ability to maintain its classic taste over the years, with popular orders such as the Original Drums of Heaven continuing to delight.
Following a thoughtful renovation, Ming Room by Trincas welcomes guests into a refreshed and inviting ambiance. The space boasts bright red walls, traditional red lanterns, and golden cloud motifs, creating an elegant yet warm dining atmosphere. A clever glass partition separates the Ming Room from the main Trincas restaurant, allowing diners to enjoy the peaceful coziness of their meal without the bustling din, making it an ideal setting for intimate gatherings or a relaxed culinary escape. We invite you to experience the rich heritage and vibrant flavors that make Ming Room by Trincas an enduring icon of Kolkata's gastronomic landscape.
