Taste Tibet
Matters of Taste: A Culinary Tour of Tibet
– Garden Kitchen
Join Yeshi Jampa and Julie Kleeman from Oxford’s Taste Tibet for a culinary tour of the Himalayas – a chance to learn about a unique cuisine and culture. In this demo event, they’ll take us on a rolling tasting journey. Enjoy a welcome drink (non-alcoholic), two courses of Tibetan food and a dessert truffle. Please let us know of any dietary requirements when booking, though please note that dairy and gluten lie at the heart of Tibetan cuisine.
A seasoned nomad who grew up on the Tibetan plateau, Yeshi helps forge a greater understanding of Tibetan culture through his food. When he was 19, he walked across the Himalayas to northern India, where he later met Julie. Together they’ve created a business and a cookbook (Taste Tibet) that connect people with the culture of Tibet through its delicious food, from hand-pulled noodles to momo dumplings.
