After a meeting at Fortune magazine, my client spontaneously decided she'd like to get lunch at Shangri-La, so we stopped by. The menu is a nice hodgepodge of Himalayan fusion–think rice + meat/seafood with curry spices like turmeric and cumin. I got the grilled salmon and rice, which was tasty and surprisingly tender, with portions so large, I had enough left over for dinner afterward.
Not a bad choice for street fare along the Time Inc stretch of Midtown.
I've been seeing Shangri-La parked outside of my office building for the past few months. I've never tried Tibetan food, so I was really excited to try this.
I had the chicken noodles ($7) which almost tasted like chicken lomein from any Chinese takeout place. Don't get me wrong – it wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything spectacular either. To be fair, I'm not familiar with Tibetan cuisine, so I'm not sure what the main staples are. But a popular dish seems to be the momos (dumplings), so next time I'm looking for a lunch spot, I'll definitely try these out!
