Yak Yak Yak

Lhasa Cafe: you can go because you’ve never eaten yak and you’ve always wanted to (weirdo), or because you’re a vegetarian and they have lots of yummy potato/vegetables dishes, or because you know you won’t find any dinners for less than $10 in Northampton, anyway, or because the waitresses are very forgiving if you can’t pronounce anything on the menu and you just point and smile instead.

Whatever your reason, it’s worth the trip. I’d recommend it for parties of two – then you can order two entrees and share, since you’ll want to try as much of this new, undiscovered (at least it was for me!) food as you can. It would also be great for a light lunch, as they have lots of giant soups.

I’m excited to go back and try the Ting-Mo, or steamed bread roll, because I’m always down for a new form of carb inhalation.

What I ate:
  • ****

    Menu description: “Potato dumplings filled with green peas, spinach, garlic, ginger & a touch of scallion & cilantro.”

    The plate of 8 dumplings is made for sharing. I didn’t share. The flavors of ingredients within the dumpling had a nice, delicate balance to them but I wanted more of a punch, so I doused them in soy sauce.

    They were one of those foods that’s just fun to eat. They could have tasted terrible and I still would’ve enjoyed the whole process of picking up the slippery white things and biting into them. But they didn’t taste terrible at all.
