PARO, BHUTAN: FOOD & TEA

Published on by jacquelinemhadel

I spent the week before Christmas in Paro and enjoyed some good food.

The four items directly below are from the Mountain Cafés. The first two are from the one on the Main Street. And it only offers veg-options. The other two are from the one facing the city center park. This one offers both veg and non-veg-options.

Bhutan Cordyceps Tea by Bhutan Cordyceps Sinensis is a blend of Bhutanese Wild Cordyceps, Tulsi and Green Tea.
*Cordyceps are known to boost your body’s immune system by strengthening the defence mechanism in the body. Packed with antioxidants and anti-carcinogen,  it delays the ageing process and also helps replenish the kidneys and gastrointestinal system. It was good.
Hamburger. I live in Thimphu and I’ve been trying to find a burger for the past six months, not one that’s going to match something from the States, I’ve given up that hope…BUT, I keep looking for something that’s going to at least satisfy my craving. Suffice it to say, this is the best hamburger I’ve found. Not disappointed.
Steamed pork momo at Sonam Trophel restaurant. Their dumplings are popular in Paro.
