Casual Lunch at a Tibetan Restaurant in Lisbon with Friends

The restaurant is Os Tibetanos, between Liberdades and Príncipe Real.

From @Wendy Werneth’s review:

This Tibetan vegetarian restaurant is beautifully decorated with Buddhist wall hangings and colorful banners, and it feels a world away from Lisbon. There’s often a film about Tibetan Buddhism playing on the flat-screen TV. The sound stays off, though, so it's not too distracting, and makes it feel like you've actually traveled to Tibet.

My favorite dishes from the menu are the mango tofu curry and the crunchy ting momo. Of course, they also have regular momos (dumplings), but the ting momo is something completely different. It’s a typical Tibetan bread roll that has been fried until it’s crispy on the outside. Delish!

From @Wendy Werneth’s review:
Thanks for the link to Wendy’s review. I know you don’t want to tout it, but there’s a lot of good Lisbon info there on her website, for vegans, vegetarians, and others.

The mangos in Lisbon are so fantastic (I’ve been told they all come from the former colonies) — a mango tofu curry sounds very yummy!
 
I had the vegan momos with veggies. It was nice but I forgot to ask 'o vapor' (steamed) and instead received the fried version. Luckily it wasn't fatty, just crunchy.

I asked a Dutch friend of mine now living 10 years in Portugal why there are Indian and Nepalese grocery stores even in small towns along the coast in the Alentejo region (something I didn't see in 2016 when I walked the Rota Vicentina). Her reply is that they now represent a large percentage of seasonal workers. That's a far way to come for work!
