Local Food & Culinary Experience

Ladakhi cuisine is shaped by altitude, climate, and centuries of Silk Route influence. Butter tea, thukpa soup, yak momos, skyu stew, and apricot jam from Nubra these are home-cooked traditions. Our culinary experiences take you into local kitchens where you eat what Ladakhis eat.

Cook with a family. Eat what you made. Take the recipes home.
