Yeti - The Himalayan Kitchen - Hauz Khaz Village, Delhi

The Himalayas are one of the largest mountain ranges in the World. They span across India, Nepal, and Bhutan. What unites the massive Himalayas apart from their topography is the food. People living in the Himalayan regions have a distinct style of cooking and preparing food. Their choice of ingredients is also unique because not much can be grown in high altitudes and wastage is to be avoided because access is limited.

Yeti brings the spirit of this special cooking alive in the heart of HKV. I had a great dining experience at this place filled with specially curated dishes from Nepal, Bhutan, India, and Tibet.


























Desserts

I seldom try the red velvet cheesecake as chocolates is what I am looking for. But the cheesecake here was superb. The outlet is associated with a bakery owned by the same management which makes these fresh and serve here. Yomari is basically Nutella Momos and a dish you must try. I wanted plenty of them to satiate my chocolate love and a plate was certainly not enough for me.





Sorry, I started off with the desserts, they are after all the highlight of my meals.  Coming back to the main food story. So if you are looking for food in the hills or pretty tough terrains, meat occupies a special place on the plate. The hill people are fond of meat because of nutrition and protection from the harsh weather. Meat gives them a solid strength-bestowing diet and they use different forms and means. 

Yeti is known for its meat and the non - vegetarian dishes it serves. Although the veg fare looks very appetizing and tasty if you love non-vegetarian fare, Yeti is a place you must visit. They have mastered the smallest intricacies of the Himalayan food and taken special care to reproduce the dishes as authentically as possible.




Thakkali Thali comes in both vegetarian and non-vegetarian versions with the protein replaced in either option.

Adopt what is right.....

I see that many people of my age group adopt certain western cultures. School students and college goers are often seen buying friendship bands and valentine cards. I feel its not right. You may think I am traditional and don't keep up to date views. But if you think a little maturely you will find out its not modern to wear friendship bands. Its rather pure pride. Now as I am talking about western culture I should tell you that I'm not against it in fact I find some of the western values very much followable like dignity of work, civic sense, accountability etc. We have to maturely decide what to adopt from the westerners and what not to adopt. Why should we go after them when we have a culture of such great versatility? -Priya Joyce

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

7 Wild healing practices That Healed Me More Than Coaching Ever Did: What If Getting Better Means Getting a Little Wild?

What if healing does not always begin with another question, another worksheet or another carefully worded goal? Wild healing practices invite emotion into the body through movement, sensation, sound, memory and ritual. This first-person journey explores seven unconventional practices that helped me notice what conversation alone could not, while keeping therapy, safety and genuine trauma care firmly in view. Have you ever spent so much time trying to improve yourself that you began to suspect that self-improvement had quietly become another job? I know the feeling. There was a period in my life when I could discuss my emotional patterns with impressive confidence, identify my triggers before breakfast and explain the origin of almost every uncomfortable reaction with the solemn satisfaction of a man who had finally discovered the instruction manual for himself. I was learning, reflecting, journalling, setting intentions and having sensible conversations about growth. On paper, I was d...
