Whispering Bamboo - Pune

Craved for some good Asian food and was bored with our usual joints of Mamagoto, Mainland China and the likes. Decided to try Wishpering Bamboo because their menu said they serve Mapo Tofu!<br/ <br/ We walked in on a Sunday night at around 7.30 and were promptly seated. We ordered the following:<br/ <br/ Soup: <br/ Hot and Sour Great balance of flavors, thick and sufficient in quantity even though we decided to share the soup<br/ <br/ Starter :<br/ We ordered the crystal veggie dumplings and loved how they were stuffed to the brim in a thin translucent cover. For us, the 6 dumplings paired well with the chilly black bean sauce as well as the spring onion sauce that was served along with three more sauces<br/ <br/ Main Course:<br/ Mapo Tofu I had first eaten this on a trip abroad and was not sure if it was available in Pune. Was pleasantly happy to know this place served it and hence did not even consider anything else. One bite into that silky tofu and what sheer bliss! Do try it if you love your Mapo Tofu! The quantity was sufficient for two.<br/ Tip: The current menu does not show Mapo Tofu, but you can tell the server and they will make it for you for the same cost as their other main course dishes<br/ <br/ Shandong Rice We ordered the Shandong rice to accompany Mapo Tofu and were not disappointed. It was a bowl of stir fried rice with caramelized onions and veggies and has a great flavor on its own. We managed to finish off the rice, and by the end of dinner were completely full to even think of desserts.<br/ <br/ Now, to the main question Would I visit again? <br/ YES! We liked the food and the service was also as expected from a Blue Diamond.<br/ <br/ This restaurant honors Zomato Gold so our bill for the night was 1200 taxes.<br/ <br/ Cheers!

We accidentally stumbled upon this place while roaming around KP after a salon session. At first the place seemed fancy but it had a cosy ambience and warm staff. For authentic Pan Asian delicacy, one must definitely give it a try. My picks:Traditional hot and sour soupVegetable crystal dumplingCrispy fried lotus stemSingapore rice noodles with vegetables

I have been visiting Whispering Bamboo i think atleast from 10 years and I am never disappointed. The food here is always amazing and they have really maintained their standard. The service is impeccable and the staff are so polite and always make us extremely comfortable. I have tried many many items over the years but to name a few i love the veg hakka noodles, veg manchurian, stir fried veggies in soya chilli sauce, fried rice, lemon coriander, manchow and hot n sour soup, vegetable salt n pepper, water chestnuts in salt and pepper, crispy spinach, lotus stem , Schezuan Babycorn, Spring Rolls etc. I highly recommend the place and they have zomato gold on food too which is great :D

Good service and good food .Staff really helpful and politely . Service very feast and food very testey.. me and my friend very enjoy this restaurant

The restaurant is inside Taj and ambience and experience is always amazing. I never had less than excellent experience in any taj hotel. The restaurant served free peanuts which complimented my beer. Dimshum, veg main, and hakka noodles I ordered and all good. Go for it.
