Bamboo Hut Garden Cafe

About

A bamboo-framed cafe in a garden above Ukhrul town, serving Tangkhul home cooking alongside good coffee: smoked pork with axone, wild herb soups, sticky rice steamed in leaf, and cakes baked with local honey. Warm, slow and the best place in the hills to sit out a rainy afternoon.
