Tucked away in the quiet neighborhood of Babesa, Heritage Home invites you into a world where time slows down, and every detail whispers of Bhutan's past. Set inside a lovingly preserved 150-year-old traditional home, this restaurant is more than a place to eat. It's a glimpse into Bhutanese life, which is lived simply and shared generously.
Wooden floors creak underfoot. Carved beams and old textiles line the cozy rooms. Guests gather around low tables in the traditional style, seated on cushions, as course after course of home-cooked dishes arrive—Ema Datshi, Phaksha Paa, red rice, and more, each served in handcrafted wooden bowls. The flavors are bold, earthy, and warming—just as they've been in Bhutanese kitchens for generations.
What makes it truly special is how personal it feels. The team treats you more like a guest in their home than a diner in a restaurant. And if you're lucky, you may even hear stories of the home's history or watch a demonstration of traditional food preparation.
For those who want to go beyond sightseeing and experience Bhutan with all five senses, a meal at Heritage Home lingers long after the last bite—flavorful, soulful, and rooted in love.
