Tibet Cafe Shop
Nanluoguxiang is a living slice of old Beijing in the centre of the city, a street that dates back 700 years to the Yuan Dynasty. Nanluoguxiang is in the shadow of the Drum Tower and just a stone’s toss from the beautiful Houhai Lake, as well as other major tourist attractions like the Tibetan Buddhist monastery, the Yonghe Gong. Leading into Nanluoguxiang are a number of Beijing’s historic laneways, the hutong. In the centre of this narrow street eight hundred meters long and famous for its cafes, bars, clothes shops, pottery and other traditional Chinese craft shops is located Tibet Café.

Tibet Cafe opened in November 2007. All decorations are in traditional Tibetan style and reflect Tibetan art, culture and religion with colourful thangka, wall hangings and prayer flags among other things like prayer wheels and offering bowls. There is a raised platform like a small family chapel decorated with Tibetan Buddhist Thangka and cushions and rugs on which guests may sit and talk, eat and drink by a traditional oven.
Momo Tibetan style dumpling .
Momos are made of simple flour-and-water dough--white flour is generally preferred--and sometimes a little yeast or baking soda is added to give a more 'doughy' texture to the finished product. The filling may be one of several mixtures, described below:
Meat, such as minced beef, lamb, pork and Yak meat combined with any or all of the following: garlic, onion, shallots, ginger, black pepper and little curry. The mixture is usually spiced with salt and often cumin. Some people also add finely some pureed tomatoes, though many variations are possible
