Asian cuisine restaurants Ladakh

This is one of the best restaurants in Leh. Everything on the menu is to be recommended, but our preference is for tandoor cooked dishes (kebabs, chicken tikka), Tibetan specialties like mutton momos, kothays (half steamed, half friedmomos), shabalay or avocado soup. If you like fish, trout is also on the menu when the road to Manali is open. Possibility to sit on the terrace or in the dining room when the evenings are still cool. Friendly and professional service.

This restaurant opened by the charming Nilza is a little jewel. It is even the only one in Ladakh to serve authentic Ladakhi cuisine! The place is beautiful with lots of woodwork, a traditional open kitchen and a small balcony with a breathtaking view. The menu, elaborated with local organic products, is varied, with notably filled khambir (ladakhi bread), chhutagi and skyu ( home made pasta in a broth), thugkpa, mok mok ... Excellent desserts and original drinks. Possibility to take cooking classes. A favorite!

Located in a small recess before the Gesmo Restaurant, just in front of the Yak Tail Hotel. We would tend to hide this small canteen, and it would be a pity! The setting is ordinary but the food is delicious. Specialties cooked in the tandoor, chicken tikka, mutton, biryanis, vegetarian dishes, different kinds of naan... It's also a place to go if you like spicy Indian breakfasts... Friendly service. Besides, the locals are not mistaken, this small dhaba is often full!
