Dalley at the farmhouse

"Dalley" a variety of chilly found in Darjeeling, Kalimpong and Sikkim hills. It is round and red when ripe.  It is very very hot and at one go most can eat only about a quarter or half of it...for some...just the smell is sufficient.For this reason it is nicknamed  fireball. However there are some veterans...at least i know a lady who is addicted to it. she takes it so much that it is said her blood has become hot and recently the doctor said that it is not fit for donation.Next time you visit hills do try some of it....it's definitely going to be a lifetime experience.Dalley and churpi(cheese) ko achar with hot momos is what we recommend...

the heaven and the earth

a typical monsoon scene from Reshi. The tip of  the hills around "The Reshi Retreat and Farmhouse" covered with fog creates an illusion of land rising up to touch the sky. The recent rains have swept away our "Farkey".

If you want to visit the farmhouse, its going to be a light trek of a quarter of a kilometer from the Reshi bridge that connects West Bengal with Sikkim.
