Art Cafe, serves Himalayan cuisine in Kolkata

 

Tucked away in the quiet neighborhood of Dr. Sarat Banerjee Road, near Lake Market, lies a charming cafe that will transport you to the picturesque hills of Kalimpong. Art Cafe, a 30-seater heaven, is an ode to the organic produce of Kalimpong, serving up delicious Himalayan cuisine and coffee in a cozy setting.

This adorable cafe is nestled within an 86-year-old Bengali bari, spread across 1,000 sq. feet, and boasts a vibrant atmosphere that will make you feel like you're in the mountains. The earthy interiors, adorned with orange and grey walls, modest wall hangings, and wicker plates on the ceiling, create a warm and inviting ambiance. The wicker plate ceiling, with orange bulbs hanging from it, casts a warm glow in the evening, while the abundance of natural light during the day sets the vibe.

From the Fing Salad, with mung bean glass noodles mixed with vegetables, peanuts, and lime, to the Jhol Momos, served in a spicy broth using Hog plum and timur pepper, every dish is a testament to the cafe's commitment to quality and flavor. Don't miss the Buckwheat Crepes, made from buckwheat flour sourced from Kalimpong, and the Spicy Chicken Open Sandwich, topped with lettuce, tiny pieces of seaweed, chicken, and sesame seeds. Wash it all down with a range of coffee, tea, coolers, and shakes.

Art Cafe is a must-visit destination for anyone looking for a unique dining experience that combines flavor, sustainability, and community. With its earthy interiors, delicious food, and commitment to quality, this cafe is sure to win your heart. So, head over to Art Cafe and experience the magic of Kalimpong in the heart of Kolkata!
