Decent Thukpa — nothing more, nothing less

Thukpa at this place was fine. The simply seasoned and clean flavour was there but not distinguished. buckwheat was present in the right quantities but without the care that makes the difference. You can taste when something is being made to a formula.

dal bhat power for 24 hours is a trekking mantra reflecting how central the dish is to Nepali daily life. The a Sherpa kitchen in the mountains setting was generic rather than immersive. butter tea was offered but not explained. If you're in the area and want Thukpa it'll do. If you're going out of your way, look elsewhere.
