Where to Eat in Guwahati: The Best Restaurants and Bars

November 19, 2017 Jana Sager

Poised on the banks of the Brahamputra River, this rapidly growing city provides a link to seven other northeastern states. Its hills hold a 10th-century temple dedicated to the goddess Kamakhya and an ancient seat of astronomy known as Navagraha, the temple of the nine planets; the small Umananda temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is on an island in the river. The area around the city contains wildlife sanctuaries, archeological ruins and a silk-weaving center.

Gam's Delicacy

The eatery is an honest effort to bring varieties of ethnic cuisine from across the North East under one roof. The forgotten taste of indigenous food, prepared painstakingly over hours, days together, smoked and steamed, stewed, roasted or even fried, so that finest from North Eastern specialties can be brought to the masses, maintaining international standard. The North Eastern ethnic cuisine resembles world famous Thai food due to close proximity. Established on July 17. 2006 “Delicacy” located one of the city’s busiest hubs at Ganeshguri, Dispur. The founder, Mr. Bhuban Gam has a vision for “Delicacy” which is successfully carrying forwards to bring great taste of ethnic food to the fore. The biggest USP of the Restaurant is the authenticity of the flavor any original form of ethnic recipes. Since Assam is land of various species of Bamboo, it comes as no surprise that the interiors of the Delicacy don’t disprove this.

Clean and decent place. Moderately priced. The ambience is good and the staff working there are courteous. Of course because of use of Fermented Bamboo and other indigenous food items, the smell lingers in the air. Perhaps improving the exhaust and Ventillation would help. Tables and toilets are clean. Good part of this restaurant is that apart from Assamese ethnic cuisine, some other cuisines of the other North Eastern States is also available.The taste of the food is really good and the portions are not miserly.

We went by a recommendation and were not disappointed. Usually serves a thali (fixed menu) but Ala-carte dishes are available as well. We tried the Bhhot Jholokia Chicken. For those of you who don't know it, Bhoot jholokia held the title of the most pungent chilli in the world. It's verrry strong. Not for the faint hearted!

After a bad tummy from days of traveling we decided to go back to our roots and familiar territory for our stomachs. Had the rasam and curd rice - overall my tummy felt good. Bit pricey but my tummy was thankful for home style food in far away Guwahati.

Naga Kitchen is furnished in a very traditional way. The interiors are furnished with bamboo and wood. The momos and the sweet chilli chicken are the major attraction of this restaurant. This restaurant provides superb non vegetarian cuisines.
