Kalsang Friends Corner

Decked in red—walls, lanterns, Tibetan prayer flags et al—Kalsang is Mussoorie’s go-to spot for Oriental food. They’ve got a pretty extensive menu, ranging from Thai, Chinese and Tibetan to Indian, but regulars here vouch for the momos and thukpa. The helpings are large (a plate of momos has nine pieces, and the thukpa bowl runs deeper than you realise), service is super-fast, and you’ll get a good view of the hillside from your vantage point up on the 2nd floor. Wind up your meal with something off their dessert menu, and as is customary here—pen down your feedback on a napkin before making an exit.
