For someone willing to look beneath the surface
I’m so excited to be writing this review. This isn’t the
kind of restaurant you’ve seen reviewed on this blog before and that’s
unfortunate. Hopefully as I become more familiar with Delhi I’ll work up the courage
to visit (and get you guys’ photos and reviews of) more places off the beaten
path to Khan Market or HKV. Here’s taking a step in the right direction…

| Pork Momo |
LOOKS LIKE
A bright pink room with 5 folding tables and an open
kitchen is about it. There’s one woman in the kitchen and the cashier is
watching television over our heads. Half way through our meal a man strolls in with
his terrier. The terrier sits down politely under his master’s table and
suffers the indignity of being petted and fussed over by the patrons walking by
him.

| Chilli Roast Pork |
TASTES LIKE
Start with fat, fluffy chicken dumplings waiting for
you to bite into an explosion of flavorful, juicy meat. Follow up with a
platter full of spicy, saucy, meaty Red Chilli Roast Pork. Set the fiery meat
off with a banana shake they’ll whip up in front of you. Finish with a hot bowl
of Pork or Buff Thukpa and fill yourself up with the soothing comfort of
noodle, meat and vegetables. I doubt you’re going to have room for dessert.
Actually I’m not sure if they have dessert at all.

| Pork Thukpa |
FEELS LIKE
Tucked away deep in the by lanes of Friends Colony
market the Taste of Tibet is a treasure. This is some of the best comfort food
I’ve ever had and I didn’t really mind that it came without any dressing.
THINGS YOU
NEED TO KNOW
Should you go: Don’t bother to click in here in your
stilettos, it’s probably best if you don’t carry that designer handbag and you
should just check your hygiene phobias in with the terrier at the door.
