Food and markets in Ladakh
Regional food in India and Nepal changes every few hundred kilometres. A good food journey goes past restaurants into homes, markets and the kitchens of old families.
We build food days around the market's hours, which are usually early. Tell us about allergies and diets when you enquire, and we will brief every kitchen on the route.
