Momo, tandoor, and slow-simmered curry — carried down from Nepal and the wider Himalaya to Piedmont Avenue.
High in Nepal and across the Himalaya, a shared meal is never rushed. At Yak & Spice, we've carried that spirit down to Piedmont Avenue — hand-pleated momo, dal simmered low and slow, bread pulled fresh from the clay tandoor.
Every dish on our table draws from Nepal, Kashmir, and the wider Himalayan range: recipes passed down through kitchens, not looked up — served in a dining room built for lingering over one more plate.
A short walk through the menu — from steamed momo to the clay oven, curry pot, and lassi glass.
Steamed dumplings, minced chicken, onion & ginger.
Clay-oven roasted, yogurt & fenugreek marinade.
Tandoor chicken in a velvety tomato-butter sauce.
House-made cheese, creamy spinach, fresh cream.
Slow dum-cooked basmati, tender goat, whole spice.
Chilled yogurt, blended with sweet mango.
