Chig-ja-gye

Chig-ja-gye is housed within the Taj Tashi luxury hotel, a remarkable structure that combines ancient Bhutanese dzong architecture with contemporary, trendy flair and boasts breathtaking views of the Thimphu valley mountains. Chig-ja-gye is no exception, with gold-leaf paintings and beautiful dhungs, traditional trumpet-like instruments, juxtaposed against modern seating and furnishings, and Buddhist prayer wheels visible through the restaurant's windows. The name Chig-ja-gye comes from the 108 earthly temptations that a Buddhist must overcome in order to enter nirvana, which include gluttony and greed, which is ironic given the abundance of traditional Bhutanese cuisine on offer. Ema datshi, a hot blend of chili peppers and cow's milk or yak cheese, is popularly recognized as Bhutan's national dish, and supper at Chig-ja-gye would not be complete without it.


In an effort to provide authentic, unadulterated experiences, they have created a one-of-a-kind regional home-style dining experience. The home-style meal, which is always prepared with a local flair, guarantees that you stay healthy throughout your visit. At the same time, it allows you to sample some of the region's delicacies.
