Step into Krazy Kitchen En Route Nainital

If you’re making a pitstop at Kathgodam/Haldwani en route to a picturesque hilly vacay, Krazy Kitchen might be a good place to stop for lunch. Expect giant soup bowls, dim sums and a range of Chinese and Thai gravies.

Much like Crazy Noodles in Delhi, the first thing that greets you at Krazy Kitchen are the lolling glasses spinning around the table in all their glory. Whilst you entertain yourself with some drinks, have a look-see at the menu. We’d recommend starting with a soup {one into two, of course} and moving on to appetisers such as dim sums and spring rolls.

Keep in mind their momo are double the size of the ones we’re used to, and their portions are pretty generous. This aside, we were pretty happy with their momo and especially the soup which, although simple, was well spiced and infused with onions, chillis and coriander. Reminded us a little of the leftover masala-laden juice when we eat corn in a cup.

But it was the cottage cheese and corn spring roll which stole the show. A must order.

They’ve got a pretty large variety of vegetables, poultry and seafood, so you can mix and match your rice and noodle preferences, but if you’re in a hurry and don’t want to invest too much time in the ordering process, the set bowls will come to your rescue. Available in options such as Chilli Chicken with rice, Veg Manchurian with noodles along with an appetiser and a beverage, these have you sorted when you have only a short while to satiate your hunger.

The service is pretty quick. However, you can also always fill up at the countless number of dhabas and tea stalls the hills are dotted with.
