Authentic Bhutanese Foods + SHOCKING Village of FERTILITY Tour | Punakha, Bhutan

🧳 MyBhutan:   / mybhutan   🇧🇹 Visit Bhutan: https://mybhutan.com/curated/a-taste-... 🎥 WATCH: More Bhutan Episodes -    • Landing at the MOST DANGEROUS AIRPORT...   My third day in Bhutan began with breakfast at the Happiness Field Village Homestay in the city of Punakha. After that, I’d visit a unique local village and monastery! My traditional breakfast included some rice porridge and an amazing, sticky, risotto-like fried rice with ezay, which is a spicy chili salsa. The ezay added a lot of heat to the rice porridge. Overall, the spice level was maybe an 8/10. I finished up with milk tea (chai) with ginger. Then, I met up with my driver, Nidup, and my guide Tsheten, both from MyBhutan. We arrived in the village of Sipsikha, a town of less than 1,000 where phalluses are painted on every house and restaurant as a symbol of fertility. The phalluses are all different colors and have eyes. Some even have fangs! They also chase away evil spirits. In the handicraft souvenir shops, they even sell phalluses! The tradition of painting phalluses dates back to the 15th century, when a Tibetan saint who came to Bhutan and subdued evil spirits using his phallus. It was so unique…I’d never seen a place like this! It takes about 2 minutes to walk through the first part of the village. Between the two parts of the village are rice paddy fields. It’s really beautiful! Past the fields is the second part of the village, where you’ll find a water prayer wheel and many more shops on your way to the Chimi Lhakhang Monastery. The shops sell phalluses of different sizes, some of which are painted, while others are plain. They also have beautiful paintings, scarves, prayer beads, and masks. The traditional ceramic masks were about 1,500 Nu, or about $19.84 USD. The architecture in the town was beautiful. We continued on to more fields, where we saw them making mud bricks. Near Chimi Lhakhang Monastery is a black stupa, where the Lam Drukpa Kuenley, an unconventional Buddhist master known as the Divine Madman captured and subdued a pair of demons who wanted to kill him. There’s also a large prayer wheel and 108 smaller ones. Inside the temple, I took off my hat and shoes and filmed inside the courtyard. Inside, prayers were in session. There are also students and lots of different types of offerings. Next, we headed to a nunnery, but it was closed, so we headed to Chimi Lhakhang Organic Café, a rustic, wood café that offers amazing views of the paddy fields, village, and mountains. I had a Druk lager, red rice, ema dashti, vegetable soup, dried beef sausage with chilies, and dried pork with spinach and chilies. The ema dashti was spicy and delicious and contained mushrooms. The green chilies are really hot, but the red ones aren’t so bad. The red rice really helped calm down the heat. The beef sausage contained some chili seeds and chili oil. It was nice and crunchy. You eat them with the ezay, which also contains onions. The vegetable soup was light and cloudy and contained spinach but no spice. Then, I went for the dried pork. It was mostly gelatinous pork fat with a bit of meat. You eat it with the spinach and chilies. The gelatin falls apart in your mouth, and the sautéed spinach and chili combination was really nice. The layer of meat was hard to bite through, though. The ema dashti was my favorite. It’s one of my favorite dishes on the planet now! It has a consistency similar to spinach dip. The chilies in the sausages felt like numbing Szechwan peppers. My least favorite was the meat layer in the pork, but it was still nice. The sausages were so good that I got a second plate!
