The dining context
Gangtok sits within the Sikkim Silk Route, and its table reflects that — regional ingredients, technique, and heritage recipes specific to this place rather than a generic pan-Indian menu. We treat dining as part of the itinerary, not an afterthought: it is timed into the day and matched to the pace of the leg.
How we curate it
Curation means vetted kitchens, private or semi-private settings, escorted access to the genuine establishments, and dietary requirements (vegetarian, allergies, medical, religious) planned in advance — not navigated on the spot. The same standard runs across the wider Sikkim Silk Route circuit.
