Two traditions, one kitchen

Our recipes travelled here from the Himalayan valleys of Nepal and the roadside dhabas of North India — kept in families, cooked the long way, and now served in Granite Bay.

Momos are pleated by hand every morning, never bought in. Masalas begin with whole spices toasted and ground the same day. Nothing about that is fast, and that is rather the point.

The best momos I've had outside Kathmandu. Thin wrappers, juicy filling, and that chutney. I drive forty minutes for this.

The butter chicken has ruined me for every other Indian restaurant. It's our family's Saturday tradition now.
Marcus J. — Rocklin, CA

Warm, welcoming, and the lamb rogan josh melts in your mouth. Our go-to for special occasions.
