A taste of Tibet
China Daily | Updated: 2008-10-18 08:35
Tibet Caf is among the few nightspots in Beijing where patrons can snack on yak jerky and tsamba barley cakes, washed down with caterpillar fungus and golden root-infused concoctions.
The place is a virtual shrine to the autonomous region, a temple of tipple loaded with Tibetan prayer flags, prayer wheels and handicrafts.
The dcor stops short of camp - just. With the inclusion of two small stuffed yaks, the decorators seemed to dip a toe - or perhaps, a hoof - into the territory of tackiness, but stopped before going too far.
