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.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Spill the Tea: Noor and the Silence After Doing Everything right

Noor has done everything she was supposed to do — moved out, built a life, stayed independent. Yet beneath the neat routines and functional success lies a quiet emptiness she cannot name. Part of the Spill the Tea series, this story explores high-functioning loneliness, emotional flatness, and the unsettling fear of living a life that looks complete from the outside. The verandah was brighter than Noor expected. Morning light lay flat across the tiles, showing every faint scuff mark, every water stain from old monsoons. The air smelled of detergent from a neighbour’s washed curtains flapping overhead. On the table, the paneer patties waited in a cardboard bakery box I’d emptied onto a plate. A squeeze bottle of ketchup stood beside it, slightly sticky around the cap. Two cups of tea, steam already thinning. In one corner, a bamboo palm stood in a large terracotta planter. Thin stems. Too many leaves. Trying very hard to look like it belonged indoors. Noor sat down and pulled the chair ...
