Mising Kitchen

Mising Pork Thali -Rs.480 Mising Kitchen, Hengrabari Road, Guwahati Assamese -Mising $$$$ 12.01.25 My Google research till 1am in the morning took us to Mising Kitchen. Now usually we consider all food in Assam as Assamese but tend to forget that there are many communities & tribes in Assam itself. Mising being one of them. So my "Porky Sunday" story continues. After @iceshira had completed his work we called up @amarnathhazarika to join us for lunch at @misingkitchen. He sounded upbeat & immediately said that it was a great place. I was also looking forward to meet @fruitcaqe again after Pune. We all met up inside this restaurant located on the 1st floor bustling with customers & smiling workers smartly adorned in traditional Mising attire. We didn't however take into account that this was the Sunday before Magh Bihu & so the rush was double. We had to wait 30mins for a table. We ordered in advance & well without batting an eyelid, I went for the Mising Pork Thali. The Thali had Rice, Yellow Dal, Mising Dal, Khar, Leafy veg fry, Aloo Pitika, Pumpkin fry, Kheer, Chutney, Pickle & the meats, 2 pcs each of Pork boiled with Outenga (Elephant Apple) & Rice Flour (Pitha Guri), Pork Curry cooked with Tomato, Pork Khorikaa (Barbeque Pork) & a bowl of finely diced Pork innards cooked with sesame & Banana stem (Kaldil). Apart from the pork they also gave Fish Pitika (mashed) & half of a fish fry (it may be called Patot Diya, correct me if I'm wrong). I started eating & everything was top notch. The rice, dal, veggies, pork & fish, everything superb. The rice was of good quality. The dal simple but well seasoned. The mising dal was somewhat interesting. The khar stamped it's Assamese origins. The pumpkin, leafy veg, aloo pitika added variety to the thali. Having said that the rice & the veg items were definitely the regular Assamese spread. It was the meats that had the Mising touch. The Pork Curry was the least interesting even though it was tasty. The pork innards cooked with sesame & Banana stem was pretty interesting & upped the game. The pork barbeque brought in that burnt & smokey skill & variety from the normal gravy dishes. But the one dish that stood out was the pork with Outenga & rice flour. It was the best. It was light & tangy & brought a breath of freshness to the otherwise heavy meal. With so much pork, the fish helped break the monotony. The fish fry was like any fried fish but the meat was fresh. Something difficult to find in Shillong. The fish patika again added flavor & freshness. Everything was better than I expected. But if I could find one thing to pick on then it would be the tenderness of the meat. It was definitely tender but personally I prefer the meat to be a little bit more tender. Seeing the popularity & the rush, I guess it's time for these guys to expand their business. Overall this was such a wonderful find. Instagram ID - kari.on.eats

The best place to try local cuisine in Assam. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. The food is out of the world. It's a delight for non-veg lovers. It's always full and you may need to reach in time to get place. Portions are good and ample variety to choose from.

This place is amazing, Food quantity is okay according to the price. Have some money in your pocket to eat here you won't be able to hold yourself back from ordering more dishes. And the dessert served (kheer) is amazing. Highly recommended for occasional lunch, but daily it will be costly. I visited two times and had amazing experience.

The bestest place in Guwahati. Every item is so delicious and drooling that it cannot be explained If you're up for lunch or dinner, this place is a must visit. The pork and chicken thalis both are so delicious. And the good thing is that they provide so many items in the thali that paying 400-500 bucks feels worthy. I tasted thalis at various places, but for me this is my all time favorite place. Just go there and eat to the fullest!!

Delicious mouthwatering assam local cuisine. Thali was the best pork as well as chicken thali. If you are looking for local food you have to visit this place and relish the best thali served here. Owner and staff were very good at service. They make you feel as if you are going to their home. Highly recommended.

Specially familiar for Mising local dishes, Veg thali, Non veg. thali with Pork, Chiken and fishes are available in the Kitchen. Due to Rush in the Mising kitchen, during Lunch and Dinner time, one have to wait for 15 to 30 minutes or more to get a table . Staffs and services in the kitchen are gentle and good.

Amazing place with great food and well-behaved workers including the manager. All traditional and delicious Mising cuisines/dishes are available. Very good for family times. All the workers wear their traditional Mising attire which is unique.
