Tibetan Dinner at Kalimpong Restaurant in McLeodganj | Food Vlog

In this food vlog, you will see how I ended up at Kalimpong restaurant in McLeodganj Tibetan Settlement (Dharamshala, Himachal Pradesh) for Tibetan dinner. I wanted to go to the poshest looking Tibetan restaurant that I had noticed, but that did not work out as expected.

Tashi delek 🙏🏻 I’m glad liking the vlogs

[@dorjeepalden86]

First of all did u get sheena’s number? She’s gorgeous and was into u if u didn’t already notice. Thukpa is pretty good in cold days, I can see it’s starting to become fav amongst the Indians. Here in states we eat whatever but back when we used to live in Tibetan settlement in India, Thukpa is eaten every night as dinner and leftover thukpa which is eaten next morning has a special taste. It’s called thuklah, translates to leftover thukpa.

[@ninja4eva956]

Yahhhhhhhh

[@DCTravelerExperience]

You're very observant, I like it 😀 I agree, thukpa is the next thing that Indians know after momo is what I have noticed as well.

[@dorjeepalden86]

@@DCTravelerExperience and I don’t think thuk means soup in Tibetan lol Reminded me of what thuk means in Hindi(spit) So u got her number ? 😏

[@DCTravelerExperience]

I think I had that explained to me about thuk in thukpa, mokthuk etc. I could be misremembering it. Anyway I’d better leave that question to people’s imagination 😉

Hi bro i always watching your vlog it is realy you making very nice video tnk u for promotion tibeten food. And sorry i like to tell you something if you dont mind auctuly thenthuk means ( then ) means the maida dow that we have to starch and make from fingers and ( thuk ) means noodles which always comes with soup.that y we call thenthuk and mokthuk is also same but hear mok means momo and thuk means soup which always goes with noodles so basically momo and thukpa doesn't serve together same like thenthuk flat noodle and regular noodle doesn't serve together.

DC thanthuk is tastier in Dhasa because of weather i believe , as most of the tibetan food is based on cold weather. So it could be the one reason

Too bad the posh restaurant didn't have more than Tibetan soup and dumplings. But worked out well. Honestly the local small eating places are always better and meals there taste much better.
