Zen Restaurant

Presently the best chinese restaurant in town, slightly expensive , good is good, service leaves much to be desired. Considering the good decor, quality of food, service is a let down.

Reviewed By ShanghaiJululu - Shanghai

This place is close by the major hotels and permit office. It's reasonably priced, comfortable and convenient to the temple across the road for a post-prandial drink or snack. Portions are on the large side and spice profile is aggressive. There is a picture of Shanghai hanging on the back wall which should give you a clue as to the major influence. As a Shanghai resident I can attest the flavours here are legit. Indian/Chinese fusion as it should be done. Their chilli chicken stands up there with any other version I've had. Deservedly popular with locals as well as tour companies.

Sunset is pretty early in Bhutan, so we had been to Kizom to sooth our mid evening hunger.
This cafe is full of young crowd.
As they offer free wifi, i feel many kids are there to have a coffee & enjoy the net.
We had ordered a Grilled Chicken Sand which with Coffee. food was good.

Asian Kitchen Hotel Restaurant and Bar

Reviewed By Explorer_aru - India

The best thing about this hotel is the location. This hotel is bang opposite to the immigration office,very close to the border gate, surrounded by shops & restaurants, just beside Zangdokpalri Temple & park. Another good thing is the in house restaurant. We had three meals there and totally loved the quality taste and quantity of the food served.
Just one problem we faced during our stay was that the hotel has no power backup so in case there is a disruption of electricity supply (in our case it was for an hour ) there is no backup facility.

The food is good though the variety is very less. The service is ok. The Seating area is also good. The best part is that this hotel is located in the main market and easily accessible. Going to India is also easy from here.

Breakfast has fixed rates per person and has options like Puri and Bhaji, Bread, butter, eggs, fruit juice, corn flakes, etc. In Puri, lot of oil was present and...MoreDear Guest, Thank you for your feedback.

This restaurant is a part of Hotel Kuenga. Very good location and situated opposite the Zangtho Pelri Lhakhang Temple. They serve delicious vegetarian food in reasonable price. Very good sitting arrangement though the staffs were not prompt enough.
