In this amazing tibetan jewel the ambiance is as authentic
as the family is. The momos, especially sha and shogo
momos, are so good, as is the ngo tse avo, a kind of curried
potatoes with chickpeas and avocado accompanied with tibetan
flat bread. Among the soups, especially Ruthang Momo -
a beef broth with spinach and momos is delicious. The
noodles with meat or veggies are very tasty. The dessert
with the fresh homemade yogurt and sweet rice with raisins
and strawberries is a treat you wont easily forget.
