Lhasa Cuisine
Lhasa has the best accommodation in Tibet for travelers, and, as a result of Tibet's growing popularity among travelers over recent years, conditions have continued to improve in order to meet a more demanding market. Visitors can enjoy cuisine from all over the world, including, of course, authentic Tibetan dishes. The flavor of Tibetan food is typically fresh, light, and tender and the main ingredients include salt, onion, and garlic.
Tsamba: Tsamba is a traditional staple food of Tibetan and is a kind of dough made with roasted highland barley, pea and water. Tibetan butter tea, sour milk or Chang can also be enjoyed alongside this delicacy.
Air-dry Mutton and Beef: Dried meat is an extremely characteristic Tibetan food. At the end of every year, Tibetans cut red meats into small pieces or strips and then hang the strips in a shaded, covered area when the temperature falls below freezing. The meat remains edible until the following February/March, when it will be crisp and full of flavor.
Chang: Chang is a Tibetan alcoholic drink made from barley. It is loved by Tibetan people of all ages and both sexes, and is also a requisite drink during happy events and festivals. Although Chang has a light-fruit-like flavor, it is actually very strong. During a banquet, the host (whether male or female) would propose a toast while singing the toasting song.
Food Streets: Deji Road is a famous food street in Lhasa where travelers could taste all style of dishes such as Tibetan and Chinese foods as well as the exotic Indian, Nepalese and Western diets.
