Thukpa in Australia

Thukpa is the Himalayan answer to a cold day: a big bowl of noodles in a spiced broth, loaded with vegetables and your choice of chicken, buff or egg. It came down from Tibet and settled happily into Nepali kitchens, and it is pure comfort in a bowl.

Order it when you want something warming and brothy rather than heavy. The good versions build the stock properly, so it tastes deep and clean at once.

We have mapped 68 spots serving it, most across New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia.
