In today's episode, we embark on a journey into the avant-garde vegetarian menu of Tsas restaurant in Dolkhar. Here, culinary tradition seamlessly merges with innovation, while sustainability takes center stage. Guided by the visionary leadership of owner Rigzin and the culinary expertise of Chef Kalpesh, Tsas presents a reinvented plant-based cuisine, thoughtfully crafted with hyper-local ingredients sourced from their kitchen garden and best ethical producers.
Our journey at Tsas began with Chef Kalpesh unveiling the intricate flavors and culinary narratives behind Ladakh's indigenous ingredients that was displayed in a tray. From aromatic herbs to tangy seabuckthorn, each transported us to the heart of Ladakh's landscape.
The gastronomic adventure continued as we indulged in a delectable spread crafted by Chef Kalpesh. From the crispy mushroom croquette to the refreshing apple salad, every dish showcased a harmonious blend of European haute cuisine and Ladakhi tradition. The apricot kernel soup, accompanied by mini apricot brioche, offered a delightful interplay of textures and flavors, while the skyu, made with locally sourced vegetables, provided a comforting taste of home.
For dessert, we savored a tangy and refreshing yuzu and Himalayan rhubarb sorbet and the indulgent apricot and 64 percent chocolate gelato.
After our sumptuous meal, we embarked on a tour of Tsas' organic kitchen garden, to witness firsthand the motto of farm to table and the commitment to sustainability and freshness that defines the restaurant's ethos.
In the evening, we had the pleasure of dining with the dynamic owner, Rigzin, whose passion for Tsas and Dolkhar was palpable all throughout the enriching conversation with her. Over a diverse spread of Burnt lime thenthuk, barley oyster bao, and seabuckthorn chocolate tart, we gained insight into the vision and journey behind Tsas.
Overall, our experience at Tsas transcended mere dining; it was a celebration of culture, sustainability and culinary innovation-a true testament to the richness of Ladakh's culinary landscape.
