If there’s one Bhutanese food restaurant you have to eat at when you’re in Bhutan it’s the Folk Heritage Museum Restaurant. This was probably the best Bhutanese food meal that I had in all of Bhutan. The food and the knowledge of Bhutanese culture was amazing.
Folk Heritage Museum Restaurant - They also have a museum, but the best reason to come here is for their restaurant. They aim to really preserve traditional Bhutan culture and food. Even though I had been in Bhutan for almost two weeks already, I tried some very unique Bhutanese dishes at Folk Heritage Museum Restaurant and also got a lesson on how to eat traditional Bhutanese food. This is one of the world’s greatest Bhutanese restaurants and preservations of Bhutanese culture in Thimphu.
Here are some of the main Bhutanese dishes we ate:
Suja - herbal butter tea
Sweet buckwheat
Bitter buckwheat noodles
Dried fiddlehead ferns
Roasted barley dough
Bamboo shoots and fermented beans
Dried beef with fermented yak cheese
Sikam paa - dried pork with chilies
Chanterelle mushrooms
Ema datshi - chillies and cheese
Bhutanese chicken curry
Kewa datshi - potatoes and cheese
After our huge Bhutanese food lunch we had some Indian food with Matt including some momos and paratha for dinner.
It was a great day of food in Thimphu, Bhutan!

I am an Indian born in Bhutan even studied there till grade four as my parents were teachers there. I have loved the country...the beauty.. the culture ..the people and their friendly nature ..nice food...nice vegetables n yummy fresh fruits
Hey...so am I. I stayed there till 12th std. The place was heaven ❤
I have always been fascinated by Bhutan's culture and people. Their people-centric government policies are awesome and worth emulating by all countries of the world. I am Indian by the way. Now I am drooling over their food. 😍 Love you, Bhutan. 💗💗💗
I'm deeply in love with this country...so much that I want to cry.
Lion Entity thank you

Do come to visit ((:🇧🇹

Why Bhutanese people eating beef when Gautam budhha teaching was to not kill any animal??
The whole world loves Bhutan 🇧🇹 and Bhutanese. No question! I had an amazing Bhutanese friend.
That’s nice!
Kryptonite yeah, British wiped out native Americans and Australian and Maori and native Canadians
« The whole world loves Bhutan »... like “The whole world loves Canada” -which is why so MANY *White* Americans travel with the maple leaf somewhere on their clothes... because they were told most people don’t like Americans ?
PS: I wrote “told” but sometimes, too often it is actually “taught”.
PPS: To those who think “It’s just about food, get out with your political opinions”, I just want to say: food is culture. *Food IS political* . You just took the time to think about it, or not. Same with racism. Same with equal rights (male / female). Anthony Bourdain was a master in that. Just read the reactions when someone dared criticizing American burgers (Mark had a burger in Bhutan).
Alots of love from bhutan 🇧🇹
Hamari San シ are you bhutanese?
I have been to Bhutan. Such an amazing country. So natural and peaceful . Graceful people. I like to live there

I've actually been to a border town in Bhutan. ❤️❤️ The people are nice and warm. I miss binging on DRUK beers 😂😂 with my friends. Watching this brought back many memories. Planning to visit this winter again. 👍🏻👍🏻

I visited Bhutan so many times, specially staying at a place which is only one hour drive from Funtsholing. Tried some of their dishes but this feast is giving me travell goals!!
This series of videos from Bhutan have been excellent.. This is a place I'd never heard of before and I'm so glad you have been able to really showcase what Bhutan looks like (absolutely breathtaking) , the culture and of course the food!! Everyone seems to be very friendly from this area, it's also nice to see that someone preserving the traditional form of cooking. I 100% agree with you on the wooden bowls, they are beautiful! Thank you Mark and Ying for this experience! ☺️
You'd never heard of Bhutan before? :O

Again, great video! Thank you for sharing your experience Mark! most of us don't travel much, by sharing your videos gives us an experience, better understanding of Bhutan cuisine, and of of course makes us hungry haha.
Bhutan food look so natural and organic
I cannot believe my favourite foodie blogger has visited my country. We Bhutanese just love chillies and cheese. Thanks to you... we get to be connected with our cuisine away from home. Love all your videos and appreciate your passion
I really love Mark like how he loves food! thank you for this another video Mark! Can't wait for the Philippine series.
Food apart, the hospitality looks awesome from the settled table to the amount of respect presented by the people (host). I am doing my college presentation on Bhutan. Your videos helps me to know Bhutan from culinary side. Like it so far!
I love Mark and Ying Wiens. I have been watching for almost a year now. I will surely travel to Bhutan after the pandemic.
Thanks so much for sharing Bhutanese culture and cuisine with us, looks so wonderful. Thanks Mark, keep up the great vlogs!
Jürgen Klopp thank you for complementing my country’s food

Many of you are complaining that Mark is unauthentic when it comes to rating the food he eats by displaying the same facial expressions and always smiling....but I think he is just being respecful and polite considering the fact that the owner is sitting next to him.
i like da way u describe a food with ur expression of ur face. u know to respect other with ur smiling face.
th-cam.com/video/ly0b6jhaUJ8/w-d-xo.html
my days are awesome. it's because of this wonderful guy. thnx Mark. everything about u is awesome. so many things are there to learn from you. god bless
I've never seen food like this before. Amazing.
Omg! Drooling...
Am so much in love with the food 🤤❤️👍
I love ua bhutanese series mark.... I watch every ep till the end
the best thing is .. you tasted what they have in their menu.. no matter how many places you go no matter how the food dishes maybe quite similar but the stories varies... but it is what they have there pure and simple as that.
It is good to know the full extend of your visit there with every video presented.
Thanks
Loving it. A Bangladeshi from UK
I knew I wanted to watch as soon as I heard "fermented yak cheese." Great name for a band too.
I've eaten here it was amazing! to see all the different traditional vegetables they use from mountains. They use chilli as a vegetable and it is in everything! unless you ask for no chilli, and then they think your insane!!! lol I LOVE Bhutan :)
The moment I saw the dishes on the table, I knew Mark is gonna love the Emadatshi and ezay. Exactly what happened. 😅❤️
Love you Mark.
Nice to see the authentic Bhutanese Dishes.The host looks generous. Cheese and Chilli mixture and the green Chilli salad defininitely seem tasty.
I love Bhutan episodes .... it's simply RUSTIC AND HEARTWARMING ❤️🔥
wel come to bhutan
Bhutan looks amazing.
Bhutan is India’s little brother ♥️
Love them … i wish I visit someday and have all that delicious food 🤤
the way you describe the food I can almost taste it :) you enable me to travel without leaving my home..ty
Man I just love how this guy tilts his head 😂
Another great vid. Wish there was a Bhutanese restaurant nearby. 👍🏻
Its time to visit Bhutan for sure, its a culinary heaven and Cultural Paradise.
Lovely work Mark
th-cam.com/video/ly0b6jhaUJ8/w-d-xo.html
Mark , u know what , it’s so polite + impressive from your part that you adjust and fraternize so easily with the people of different cultures. God bless u ! We all should take a lesson from this guy how to respect different people n earn respect for self .
th-cam.com/video/ly0b6jhaUJ8/w-d-xo.html
Glad you are showing some vegetarian things without cheese. Although I like cheese, I cannot eat it everyday. When it's too much cheese, my digestion says Yak.
i love your videos bro this one in particular its awesome wish i was with u to try it all out!
I love the way you tilt your head sideways and smile and laugh...and say ..ohh ooh yeah 🥰🥰
long live bhutan,tons of love and respect from india..
As always amazing video 😍😍
I've heard of cheese made from contented cows, but cheese made from fermented yaks is a new one for me!
...always learn something from Mark's videos 😁
I dont think the yak is fermented its the yak cheese that is fermented
we are happy to see you enjoining our Bhutanese traditional food
Beautiful place and your eating the food all good
i know a lot of people are complaining about the same food but i enjoy seeing how each place is kinda different.
Thanks Mark for all of your wonderful videos!! My mouth always waters!
PositiveLastAction allow the fish to swim in that water...
this all looks absolutely wonderful! It's fascinating how diverse and deliciously-looking all this food looks!
Mark when you come to the Philippines, come and visit my mom's eatery in Cavite! We serve Filipino food (obviously) and not just cuisines from Cavite but from other places too. 😊
I love Bhutan.
You make good videos! Now I know, what the people eat in Bhutan.

Ganesh Pawar ur damn correct brother. I did the same..
Ganesh Pawar me too same with me😁😁😁😃😃😃
Very nice food vlog!! Love the Buthanese culture and authentic food!!
This looks great...I love this series
Taste "woody", Mark meant it wasn't good tasting, the cook was right there so he had to say that. he was being respectful to her and being kind. No reason to be mean or ugly, even if it taste like a fermented Bhutanese fart, lol!! We understood what he was saying to those who know his ways, when he enjoys something.
alice smith Omg! Fermented Bhutanese fart.. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
well mark doesnt ever say anything negative about his food in general - in the presence of the chef or not. can't really say that 'woody' is a negative comment when people, especially mark, love to use 'earthy' to describe food. it might be a mature taste, and, at the very least, he might appreciate it.
No, It is delicious I have been there.
After seeing a lot of videos I know what Mark say and what he means by it. The food is average for sure.
Mark Weins been to Bhutan!!! That's really cool. BTW love your videos.
So? We don't live under a rock dude
Hi Mark, I'm loving the videos. Everytime you tilt to the right, I just want to taste what you taste. Great fun!
You make me laugh every time you taking a bite of food I see the pleasure on your face..it makes me feel like hungry watching you how you ate.😂😂😂I been watching many if your videos and I am a subscriber. 😊💋
my beautiful hometown 😍😍
Wow! The food looks awesome! We should be eating more of food like that! Unspoiled, not processed, and no preservatives, it is healthy. The buckwheat is good for the diabetes!!!
Bhutan is the only country which does 100% organic farming.

Wow!! Yummy Bhutanese 🇧🇹 food.. Love it
This was a very good lesson and the lady is marvelous. One thumb up!
Hey Mark, this reminds me, did you try Axone ( fermented soyabean) with pork when you were in Nagaland? It's truly one of the best things ever provided you develop the taste :D

Thank you for showing me "A new way of food." From southern Illinois and don't see much past ketchup and hamburgers.

I would like to go to Bhutan but from my research you have to go on guided tours costing $200+ dollars a day. It is a pity. Apart from that I love your videos
At almost the end of this video, that beef rolls were really like treats. Wonderful and beautifully tasty videos. Thanks Mark.
Really enjoying the videos mark! Awesome
You r amazing Mark. 🤔🤔

Mark there's just something magical about the east I love your eastern videos much much more
Fiddleheads are so good... I'm here in Vermont and really happy that spring (and fiddlehead season) is just around the corner. Funny, but the scenery reminds me of Vermont, too...
