Shen Chinese House

We set up Shen Chinese House in the Mill Compound area of Tardeo a few years back. We are tucked away on the ground floor of Janaka Nagar Co-Operative Housing Society. It’s in the B Wing, shop S 7, which isn't the easiest place to find if you aren't looking for it. Being on B B Nakashe Marg means there is always a lot of noise and people moving around outside. Our kitchen gets really hot, especially during the lunch rush when everyone from the offices nearby starts calling in for their food. The floor is a bit worn out from us walking back and forth between the stoves and the counter. It’s not a large place at all, just enough room for the equipment and maybe a couple of small tables for people waiting. Most of our customers just grab their bags and head back to their desks or homes in the 400034 area. Mumbai is such a fast-moving city, so we just try to keep up with the orders as they come in. Sometimes the delivery guys get bunched up near the entrance, but we manage to get through it. The smell of frying onions and ginger usually drifts out into the society hallway. We don't bother with much decorating. It’s mostly just the menu stuck to the wall and the sound of the woks. If you see the Janaka Nagar sign, you’re close. We just do simple cooking.
