Penang Restaurant
पेनाङ रेस्टुराँ
A local favorite opened in 1972, popular among locals for its Gorkha Thali, pork momos, and Chinese-style stir-fries.
Located at 11 Ladenla Road, inside a small public alleyway with steps opposite Rink Mall. The entrance is inconspicuous, so you can ask locals for directions; it is about a five- to six-minute walk from the Clubside taxi stand. Operating since 1972 and renovated in 2016, it is a common dining spot for locals and monks. You can order the Gorkha Nepalese Thali, as well as pork and chicken momos, Thukpa, and spicy chicken noodles. Despite the name "Penang," the dishes are primarily Nepalese, Tibetan, and Chinese in flavor. The cost is about 700 INR for two people. It serves both lunch and dinner; please confirm the closing time.
