His foster father was a chef, to whom Wang attributes his own love of cooking.[2] Early careerWang came to Mumbai in 1974, with just ₹27 in his pocket.[6] His first job there was in a small restaurant in Colaba.[5] He also worked a variety of other odd jobs, including being a limbo dancer, at which he claims to be skilled.[3] According to Wang himself, he was a cook at the Cricket Club of India, when in 1975, a customer asked him to create a new dish, different from what was available on the menu.[3] He started by taking the basic ingredients of an Indian dish, namely chopped garlic, ginger, and green chilis; but next, instead of adding garam masala, he put in soy sauce instead, followed by cornstarch and the chicken itself; the result was Chicken Manchurian.[7] China GardenWang branched out from his job at the CCI in 1983 to start his own restaurant.[6] His restaurant gained popularity, and won various awards proclaiming it "India's best restaurant".[5] He and his son Eddie would go on to open several restaurants in various parts of India, including Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Pune and Goa.[3] The restaurant encountered trouble in 1999, when a court ordered him to close it for violating Coastal Regulation Zone rules about building floor area, in a case that took more than fourteen years. A Rediff columnist criticised the ruling as making "no sense".[5][8] He reopened the restaurant at the Crossroads Mall in August 2000.[9] References1. ^{{citation|title={{asiantitle|感受印度|||a}}|page=8|isbn=978-7-5004-5356-7|publisher=China Social Sciences Publishing House|year=2007|author=Yuan Nansheng/袁南生}} 2. ^1 {{citation|url=http://www.chinagardenindia.com/About-Nelson-Wang-Biography.aspx|publisher=China Garden Restaurant|title=Nelson Wang - The Master Chef|accessdate=2010-04-21}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{citation|periodical=CNN Go|url=http://www.cnngo.com/mumbai/none/indian-chinese-food-598134|title=The short history of Indian Chinese food and where to breathe fire in Mumbai|date=2010-02-11|accessdate=2010-04-21}} 4. ^{{citation|chapter=The Chinese community of Calcutta|title=Calcutta Mosaic: Essays and Interviews on the Minority Communities of Calcutta|editor-first=Himadri|editor-last=Banerjee|pages=131–142|first=Sipra|last=Mukherjee|first2=Sarvani|last2=Gooptu|isbn=978-81-905835-5-8|publisher=Anthem Press}} 5. ^1 2 3 {{citation|title=Bulls in China Garden|first=Pritish|last=Nandy|periodical=Rediff|url=http://www.rediff.com/news/1999/oct/27nandy.htm|date=1999-10-27|accessdate=2010-04-21}} 6. ^1 {{citation|title=Manchurian Master: On the eve of the Chinese New Year, restaurateur Nelson Wang recounts the rise and rise of 'Manchurian' and 'Chinjabi' in India|first=Ismat|last=Tahseen|date=2008-02-05|accessdate=2010-04-21|periodical=Daily News and Analysis|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/entertainment/report_manchurian-master_1149314}} 7. ^{{citation|url=http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/life/2007/05/04/stories/2007050400070200.htm|periodical=The Hindu|date=2007-05-04|accessdate=2010-04-21|title=Taste and disdain: A tour of the country's interesting eating habits with a roving journalist|last=Bhagat|first=Rasheeda}} 8. ^{{citation|title=Today's special at China Garden: High Drama|url=http://www.indianexpress.com/ie/daily/19990805/ige05046.html|date=1999-08-05|accessdate=2010-04-21|periodical=Indian Express}} 9. ^{{citation|url=http://rediff.com/travel/evff.htm |periodical=Rediff|title=China Garden's new avtar|date=2000-09-29|accessdate=2010-04-21 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20000929045040/http://rediff.com/travel/evff.htm |archivedate = 2000-09-29}} External links
