The same thing reflects in the Kali Temple as well where they have tried to hold on to the Indian culture as well as have tried to incorporate the Chinese touch by serving noodles, chop suey, rice and vegetable dishes as prasad which is first offered to Goddess Kali. 

The Chinese Kali temple was built around twenty years ago in Tangra with the help of  Bengali and Chinese people. Earlier, the site was worshipped by Hindus for sixty years where two granite stones smeared with vermilion were kept underneath a tree. According to the popular legend, a 10-year-old Chinese boy had fallen sick and nothing was able to cure him, after trying numerous times, one night his parents laid him under a tree and prayed for several nights and the boy slowly started recovering. Since then the site has been an important part of the community.
