You will either love this combo, or you may outright hate it. The purists will shun this marriage between momo and a fluffy bun

But, life's too short to not experiment. Add in a bit of dalle chutney and even the naysayers will devour a momo bun. If you add a dollop of cheese to it, the outcome could be sinfully good πŸ˜€

Located at a 30-minute forest walk from Kartiyog Sougar lies Geil Khola β€” a stream that flows with quiet wisdom and forgotten stories.

Today, it's a place of stillness and healing. We sat on sun-warmed rocks, feet in cold mountain water, letting the stream carry away the noise of daily life.

But not too long ago, and further downstream, Geil Khola was a key transit point along the old Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR). Trains from Siliguri once stopped at the Geil Khola station, and travelers would continue to Kalimpong by bus or foot β€” a journey through time and terrain.

Although the Kalimpong extension of the DHR is long gone, the river remains β€” resilient, like the land it belongs to. Even in 2023, when a glacial lake outburst flood swept through the region, Geil Khola endured.

While sitting on the rock, as the water gurgled past, we had a quiet realisation.

"Wellness," we felt, "is about sitting still by ancient rivers and remembering that we’re part of something enduring and wild."

Come, walk with us. Let the hills do what they’ve always done β€” restore you.

The summer breeze hums with the quiet magic of the forest. Stone, metal and wood meet in perfect harmony, inviting you to pause, breathe, and simply be. Inside, warm light flickers through the windows β€” extending an unspoken welcome, a heartfelt embrace

This is a place for slow sips, shared silences and hearts that beat a little closer β€” a hideaway where all is well 😊

This is the Utopia cabin. But what is 'utopia,' you might ask?

In simple terms, it is a concept of an ideal, perfect society, often imagined as a place of harmony, peace, and prosperity. The term was coined by Sir Thomas More in his 1516 book, called Utopia, which described a fictional island society with flawless social, political, and economic systems.

In this ideal world, there is no poverty, inequality, or conflict, and everyone lives in balance with nature and each other. Over time, 'utopia' has come to represent any visionary or aspirational vision of a better future, whether in literature, philosophy, or everyday life. However, the idea is often seen as unattainable, as perfection is subjective and human societies are inherently complex. Despite this, the concept of utopia continues to inspire creativity, innovation, and the pursuit of a better world. In our context, the Utopia cabin reflects a tranquil, idyllic retreat where visitors can experience a slice of their own personal paradise.

Bring across your close ones and experience a slice of near perfection we say πŸ˜€

Washrooms in Indian homes have mostly been places of neglect. Traditionally, they were built as detached structures that were tiny and overrun by cobwebs. Religious and cultural beliefs also made sure that washrooms were given little to no priority.

At some point, attached washrooms became the norm. Even then, they remained mostly spaces that one visited only out of necessity. They usually had a wet floor and there was often a foul odour of accumulated water.

In the washroom evolution chronology, designer washrooms then became the norm. These had acres of tiles, granite and marble. Yet, they were still uninspiring.

In our case, the washrooms have been inspired by the colonial era tea bungalows of Assam and the Dooars. Several of these bungalows had washrooms that came complete with a dresser and couch.

We also maintain that the washroom needn't be a place of only necessity. Rather, answering to Nature's calls could well be accompanied by reflection and introspection. To get you started, we've placed some poetry in the picture frames πŸ˜€

A weekday luncheon for guests from Darjeeling.

The weather has been mostly great so far. We say so because most forecasts spoke about a colder-than-usual winter this season, on account of the La Nina effect. Witj that said, there's still most of January ahead of us. Hopefully, La Nina won't affect our location severely, more so because we're only at 4800 feet. For comparison, Darjeeling is at 7000 feet.

Called Ikigai, this cabin will encourage you to dwell on purpose or your life's mission. It will appeal to you if you're looking for a quiet yet luxurious getaway amid splendid views, bird chirpings and crisp mountain air.

That said, finding purpose in life, or meaning for our existence, is subjective. You could well have more than just one purpose for your journey on this planet. Or, you could also infer there is no reason to seek purpose; either way, we won't judge you. We live and let live.

We suggest you come and dwell on your 'ikigai,' or the lack of it, amid luxuries like starry nights, trees you can touch from your balcony, or reflect in a washroom that's about the size of an average Mumbai apartment.

Bookings are open. There's another cabin launching soon. Each one has its own dedicated dining/entertaining area as well as its own bonfire/barbecue area. You needn't share your space with other guests.
