At Kot Kailash, meals are not merely served — they are shared. Tehni, meaning a branch, is our way of expressing nourishment, belonging, and connection. Rooted in Kumaon’s culinary traditions, our kitchen brings together seasonal produce, mountain-grown grains, and time-honoured recipes, prepared with simplicity and care. 

Each dish tells a story — of valleys where rice is cultivated, of forests that lend their herbs, of families who pass down recipes across generations. At Tehni, you dine as you would in a Kumaoni home: unhurried, generous, and close to the hearth.

For now, Tehni is an intimate part of your stay with us. One day, it may grow into something more. But it will always remain what it is today — a branch of Kumaon’s living heritage, shared at your table.

From the warmth of Ras Bhaat and the spice of Bhatt Ke Dubke to the earthy notes of Aloo Ke Gutke and Bhaang Ki Chutney, each creation tells a story of the mountains, the forests, and the people who cultivate them. Ingredients are sourced locally — from free-range mountain chicken to organically grown fruits, vegetables, and grains — ensuring freshness, authenticity, and a deep connection to the land.

Whether shared in intimate moments or over leisurely meals with friends and family, Tehni transforms dining into a journey of taste, culture, and connection — a true reflection of Kumaon’s soul.
