After serving mouth-watering Himalayan food, Momo I Am has introduced Yak Brewing Co. at its Sector V outlet, serving authentic Asian, Himalayan and Tibetan cuisine and curated cocktails. This newest nightclub and diner is one of a kind as it emits pure Asian vibes, whether with its décor and ambience or the food. Every corner of the place spread over 9,000sq ft. is carefully accessorised with collected Himalayan artefacts, making it a fantastic spot to hang out with your tribe. Sticking to its roots, the place has good hip-hop and R&B music matching the vibe of the place. The menu also has Japanese and Korean specials and lip-smacking starters which go best with the cocktails. The Telegraph checked it out.

The stage area is equipped with techno lights and also handmade paper lanterns. Connecting to the roots, techno music, hip-hop and R&B music are generally played along with Bollywood music.

We have done the décor sticking to a more Asian side, which you don’t see in other places in the city. We wanted to do something different from what we are doing next door, as Momo I Am is a more familyoriented place. On the other hand, Yak Brewing Co. is a diner and a nightclub, attracting the young crowd more,” said Pravakar. “We are trying to infuse our own vodkas and spirits and making a lot of homemade liquors and syrups. We are coming up with a new menu of curated cocktails, concentrating more on the flavours and the presentation. We are basically tilting towards Asian cocktails like Lemongrass Infused Vodka and much more, to match with the theme of the club,” added Reevu
