| - Another great Tibetan meal at Queen St. W.
We actually had an aim to eat at Himalayan Kitchen that Saturday night, but they were randomly shut. Tibet Kitchen was just a few steps away and looked pretty busy, so we thought this was a sign for us to try another new restaurant of the same cuisine.
By far the most friendliest service compared to Shangrila and Himalayan Kitchen.
The only reason I did not give this place a 5 stars was because they do not serve thali for dinner. So we started off with veg momo's, which were delicious, but I still say Shangrila make the best momo's.
For mains I got the large dhal with rice and my friend got the tofu and broccoli curry with tingmo. Surprisingly, the tofu wasn't deep fried, which is a good thing. However, the portion size was pretty tiny. My dhal arrived, which for a large, wasn't that "large". Also the dhal was made using a different lentil compared to the dhal from the other aforementioned restaurants, where they used the yellow lentils rather than the black ones. It was really flavourful though, and with the rice, it was really comforting for a cold night. Overall, the food tasted great and the restaurant itself was well decorated with some effort put into it (such as the addition of a large Dalai Lama painting).
The portion sizes need to be enhanced and they should consider serving thali for dinner instead of only lunch.
But, nevertheless, Tibet Kitchen did not let me down.
