Pan-Fried Noodles

Tiffany · MAYFAIR Himalayan Spa Resort, Kalimpong

The pan-frying is the whole difference. The nest goes into a hot pan and is then left alone, long enough for the underside to catch and crisp, before it is turned through garlic, herbs and chilli flake. What arrives has brittle edges and a soft middle, which boiling alone will never give you.

Tiffany is the all-day room at the Himalayan Spa Resort, multi-cuisine by design, with tables inside and out. At four thousand feet that means you pick your seat by the weather rather than by the menu.
