Local Food in Auli

Most meals are at your hotel or GMVN restaurant, with simple North Indian and Garhwali food. In Joshimath, small eateries serve thalis, parathas, Maggi and momos.

Garhwali dishes to try where available: kafuli (spinach and fenugreek greens), phaanu (lentil curry), chainsoo (roasted black-gram dal), mandua roti (finger-millet bread) and jhangora kheer (barnyard-millet pudding).

Options are limited late in the evening and in the off-season, so carry snacks for walks and long drives.
