I had the spicy and soupy regular laphing for 50 rupees. The laphing was made up of refined wheat flour (maida) which we generally get in noodles. Laphing is similar to noodles when served with soup, but it's elongated and thickened. You can slurp it like noodles when it comes with soup. Inner contents or the fillings were made from soya. The soup was pungent, and had something like vinegar in it. It had fillings which was dispersed in the soup. I had tried laphing for the first time, I'm not a fan of laphing after eating this. Also the soup was oily, having an oily layer. The soup had chilli content that may be beyond normal consumption. Heads up, for those who're going to have this soup. Eating this soupy laphing won't give you laugh for sure. The soup left an aftertaste, which after eating several dishes wasn't gone. It was irritating to me. Even after remembering its taste I felt like vomiting. This wasn't accepted as it's made by Tibetan refugees. I think I need to give it another try. This time without soup. Update: Recently had yellow wai wai dry laphing would rate it 3/5. It was better without their soup. Wai wai noodles gave a crunchy texture. They added some spices in the laphing, also the noodles were sprinkled with additional spices. Nothing special about it. Had taken the paneer baozi's, for 80 rupees which had paneer (cottage cheese), cabbage (patta gobhi) and onion (pyaaj). I got two baozi's, which had bread layer inside. It's made of refined wheat flour (maida). They had also used butter in the process of making it. They also serve chilli sauce with this which I didn't like. It was my first experience with the baozi's and I felt nothing special about it. Maybe I would have to try baozi's somewhere else. The shop is maintained and run by Tibetan refugee women who are polite. I appreciate their...

Editing my review. I liked the place very much, but something happened today that will not return to the place again. I went to get laphing today. There are little kids who beg in Kamla nagar area there were 2 little girls they asked me to buy laphing so I ordered 2. The woman at the counter asked me, "1 inke liye hai?" I said yes. To which she replied "Hum inko nahi denge aapko khane k liye de denge. Inhone tang kiya hua hai humne bhaga liye MAAR kar dekh liya par ye jaate hi nahi" To which I said "aap pack kar do" she refused. I am saying this from with utmost empathy and humbleness. You, out of all people, should have sympathy with kids like these.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible....

If you're around Delhi University's Chatori Gali, Laphing Wala is a spot you shouldn't miss. I tried their Wei Wei Laphing and Paneer Baozi, and they were yummy.
The Wei Wei Laphing was a cold noodle dish with a spicy and tangy sauce. It was refreshing and had a nice chewy texture.
The Paneer Baozi, those steamed buns with paneer filling, were really good. Soft buns with tasty paneer inside made for a great combo of flavors and textures.
The place had a lively vibe, and the service was quick and friendly. They have more Tibetan dishes on the menu if you're up for trying something different.
For a taste of authentic Tibetan food in Chatori Gali, Laphing Wala is a good choice. Worth a visit if you're into trying...
