Siliguri & New Jalpaiguri
Around The Corner does Western food as well as any restaurant north of Kolkata. The pasta is European-standard, or you could go for pork steaks, fish and chips, burgers, grilled prawns or apple pie with ice cream. With 10 tables, low lighting and Western rock music, it's also a place you can just come for a drink (beer from ₹150).
It's 'around the corner' behind Hotel Diamond, which you'll spot on Hill Cart Rd 400m north of the Central Bus Terminus.
