Wine & Dine

A hearty bowl of noodles and a delectable muffin is a short walk away, no matter where you stay in Gangtok.

-

Street-side dumplings are a Gangtok delicacy.

For amazing espresso, and milkshakes made of tsampa (roasted barley flour), head to The Local Cafe in New Market. 9 Baker’s Cafe ( thebakersc­afe.com) serves up scrumptiou­s pastries, waffles, pancakes, and a hearty breakfast, along with views of the mountains. Sip coffee and bite into croissants and burgers in a contempora­ry setting at Kelly’s Cafe in Vishal Gaon.

Local Fare

Along with thukpa (noodle soup) and momos (steamed dumplings stuffed with meat or vegetables), try authentic Tibetan dishes like sha phaley (fried meat pies), bhakthuk (traditiona­l broth with small noodle pieces), and thenthuk (homestyle pasta in soup) at 10 Taste of Tibet, which is located on Mahatma Gandhi Marg. 11 Nimtho is another great place to relish local delicacies in Gangtok. What's more, it is vegan-friendly too! For a lip-smacking Nepalese thali, though, you should head to Thakali, also found on MG Road.
