Traditional Singpho cuisine is characterized by its minimal use of spices, reliance on fresh and locally sourced ingredients, and preference for cooking techniques such as boiling or steaming, which aim to preserve the natural flavors and nutritional integrity of the ingredients. However, the dishes served at this establishment appear to diverge from these core principles.
