    Bhutan Kitchen

    This elegant restaurant showcases Bhutanese cuisine (in addition to a multicuisine menu) in a spacious but warm setting that features traditional seating, a traditional kitchen and store room. It was designed with tour groups in mind, so you can dive into ema datse (chillies and cheese) and other local dishes without calling for the fire brigade. Finish off with a warm arra – the local firewater.

    Sonam Trophel Restaurant

    Sonam has excellent home-style Bhutanese cooking adapted to foreign tastes (ie without the chilli) and is popular with small groups. Momos (dumplings) are a speciality at Nu 25 to 40 and the shamu datse (mushroom, cheese and chilli) is excellent. No MSG is used here.
