Chaska Maska Restaurant — Restaurant in Ladakh

This restaurant is located in the centre of the city. Nearby from the market and also the inn.

The atmosphere is quite nice, and the restaurant is not too crowded. The staff is not really speaking English, only basic one. As a tourist you could easily order and pay, but not ordering too complicated dishes that is off the menu. hahaha. They are quite scared of tourist actually, because all of the staff is .. how do you say it... they asked each other who was the one serving the tourist. They prefer to serve local indian people I guess, because they're english is not that good.

Chicken momo's here is quite good. I think this dumpling is have more similarities with dimsum but with thicker skin, and the meat is seasoned with indian spices and little dry. They're not serving the soup though.. in the other restaurant they serve the momos with the broth. So I think it will be better if the momos is being boiled and drinked like dumpling soupa

Maybe I have to try other dishes that have more Indian spices.

For drinks, I placing my bet on the save side by ordering sweet lassi. It's still...

We went here once during our stay in Leh. The food was decent. Nothing outstanding, but good and filling. Quantity was also adequate. We ordered a mix of South Indian, Sizzler and sandwich with a couple of us being Jain. I really liked the sizzler, but even the South Indian dishes were above expectation (which were not very high given that we were at the other end of India from South!). Ambiance was strictly OK. Pricing was not exorbitant. There may be better places in Leh for a meal, but this...

We visited the place in the third week of September in the afternoon. The place was mostly deserted with hardly couple of tables occupied. The staff looked disinterested and the service, inspite of the thin crowd was mediocre. We ordered an assortment of dishes including South Indian and chicken steak. The food was just about average. The toilets at the restaurant are dingy...
