Tibet Kitchen is a highly sought-after Tibetan restaurant amongst the locals in Shillong. It's a bit difficult to locate for the first-time visitors or tourists. You can find this restaurant on the top floor of Glory's Plaza, which is situated at a close proximity to the police bazar center point.

Last but not the least, the ambiance of this restaurant is welcoming and you can see many inspirational quotes of Dalai Lama posted on the walls.

The dumplings are steamed, which makes the dough soft, chewy, and a bit sticky and/or slimy. Steamed dumplings like this are delicious, and momos are...

Even though it is in some corner where it is hard to find it is always packed so you know the food and service is good. They bought the food out in minutes! The waiters were super friendly. I’d definitely recommend this place if you are in shillong and want to have lunch or dinner in Police Bazar. An absolute must have is...
