As we are getting ready to spend quite a bit of time in the Himalayan Foothills, what kind of cuisine can we expect? I look forward to tasting some of the food there and have been looking online to see what it would be. Is there anything you can recommend that I not miss?
Sorry to disappoint you but there is no such thing as Himalayan cuisine. Himalaya is the name of the mountain range in Norther India and there are lots of different cultures within the population that lives in the hills there. Garhwali, Kumauni, Kashmiri etc are all different cuisines that you could call Himalayan but they are all different from each other and finding authentic Garhwali or Kumaoni cuisine will be a task in itself unless you are willing to venture into those areas and find small food outlets where locals eat. Hope this helps.
