Gurgaon-ites are experimental with their food, and it isn’t surprising to note several specialty restaurants mushrooming in the city to cater to the growing demand. Among the list is ‘Tibetan Kitchen’ offering some authentic Ladhaki and Tibetan cuisine along with ubiquitous Indo-Chinese.
Though the restaurant has been there for a while, but we recently got an opportunity to visit the place. Ignore the ambience, and don’t be too excited of the service standards if you want to enjoy the food, which undoubtedly will ensure a revisit. The small restaurant has covered and open space available, though I noticed most guests preferred to sit outside for the cool breeze and the poor air-conditioning.
The food is the star attraction here and before I say anything further, momos variety served here is by far the widest and best for the restaurant of its class. As we took the first bite of Mutton Sumai Kothay (110; Steamed and later pan fried), the spurt of juices which came out indicated how good these momos were! The Veg Ladhaki Momos (90; whole wheat flour dumpling) again made us relive the experience. Delicious eight pieces of delicately spiced momos served along with Til chutney were absolutely worth the money and even more.
Other specialties that we tried were Aloo Phing (100; Potatoes cooked with rice noodles), Shapta (180; Spicy Chicken, probably Tibet’s answer to Chilly Chicken), Sha-Shingbee (220; Mutton with green beans) and Veg Rhe-Chotse (120; momos in soup cooked with sliced veggies) of which each dish was better than the other. Last year on my visit to Ladhakh we had tried Veg Skyu (260; thumb pressed pasta) at a hotel, but the one at Tibetan Kitchen was far superior. Cooked with lightly fried paneer, black mushrooms, skyu, potatoes and other veggies made it nutritious at the same time appealing to the taste buds.

All inclusive price quoted above is an added sweetener and makes the visit worth every dime at Tibetan Kitchen. At the same time a little more effort on improving service delivery will ensure long waiting.

Yes Amit, I remember the visit. Wrong order was what spoiled our evening. Even in my later visit, I still feel service not is their forte.
