Children under 5 - free Children under 12 - $12.00 Reservations are not required. Hoping to see some of your folks here .... Cheers! Vinod

Hi there, I am glad you liked the dishes - I am going to tone down the heat a little bit tomorrow for the Ema Datsi - I do not know whether you noticed that we changed the chicken dish to jasha tshoem instead of nakey tshoem - nakey means fiddlehead ferns which are out of season and cannot get them. Now to your last question - yes it is red rice. I just learned that the red rice eaten in Bhutan is generally polished and is not that red. Whereas the red rice imported from Bhutan comes unpolished and hence is dark reddish in color. Vinod

Hi Folks, American Folklife Festival has begun and it is an honor and privilege that Indique Heights has been selected to be the exclusive source of Bhutanese food for the festival being held at the National Mall from June 25 to june 29, July 2 – July 6th 2008. Stop by and say hello. Vinod www.indiqueheights.com www.indique.com www.chefvinod.com

Thank you all for your suggestions and for your PMs. We went to Central by Michel Richard and had a real good time. The food, atmosphere and service were spectacular. My daughter who celebrated her 15th birhtday was so impressed with the overall experience. Cheers! Vinod

Hi folks, My daughter turns 15 today wanted to take her out for dinner. She does not have any preference for any particular cuisine. she does not want Indian as she has them very often at home and at her dad's restaurants. She has asked me to surprise her. She has bad allergies to peanuts, coconut and cashew nuts. Any recommendations? Any where in the Washington Metropolitan area.... Moderate to Expensive - but not too expensive... Cheers!
