Thukpa is common Tibetan noodle soup that's found throughout Nepal, especially around the Boudhanath stupa area. Boudhanath, or the Boudha Stupa, in Kathmandu, Nepal is home to many Tibetan people. It's a very interesting area that's perfect for exploring offers a good selection of local Nepali food and Tibetan food as well. Along with noodles and full meals, you'll also find a good selection of delicious Nepali street food Like most of the Tibetan and Nepali restaurants in Kathmandu, they are hidden a little by curtains that hang in front of the restaurants blocking the windows. This makes it sometimes challenging to see what's going on inside, but luckily this thukpa small restaurant had their menu painted on the wall. Dal bhat is rice and dal soup, which is common throughout Kathmandu as well, but this little eatery specialized in only thukpa noodle soup. I decided to go for the healthy version of vegetarian thukpa, instead of the buffalo or chicken version. The vegetarian was quite excellent, though I don't know just how vegetarian it was as that soup broth was incredibly flavorful Who knows, but it was still excellent. After cooking it up in the back kitchen outdoors, the motherly lady delivered my bowl of thukpa to the table. It was piping hot. Like much of the Tibetan food I've eaten, this bowl of thukpa was a little on the plain side, but it was full of hearty flavor - just nothing too strong or spicy. But the great thing about Tibetan food is that there's always a bowl of extremely hot chili sauce at every table, just longing to be devoured. I can't resist it. So after sampling the thukpa for the first time I then reached for the chili sauce to give it some much needed spice and flavor. Overall, thukpa is a good and hearty dish that's cheap, easy to find, and tastes pretty good. When you're in Kathmandu, around the Boudha stupa, grab a bowl of freshly prepared thukpa noodle soup
