This village offers multiple cuisines like Israeli , Italian and Chinese. Some of most popular cafes that must be visited are :

Trek to Kheerganga
In the morning we left our camps for Barshaini , which is base for Kheerganga trek. Upon reaching there, we purchased the wooden sticks that would help in Trekking at 30 bucks.
Then we started the trek which is nearly 11 km.In between the trek one can relax at small eateries which offer many things like Maggi, biscuits,coldrinks etc.
After reaching Kheerganga one can easily find the camps at 300-500 rupees per day. The cost depends upon the season, weather and crowds. Bathrooms here are mostly shared ones.
