Local flavours
- Momo & thukpa — warming staples after cold drives.

Hidden gems (TravelBoots picks)

What to pack
Altitude and layers
- Carry warm gloves, caps, and windproof layers for Tsomgo and North Sikkim even in summer because wind chill is real above ten thousand feet.
- Light snacks and water help on the first long Bagdogra–Gangtok drive; motion-sickness remedy is useful on winding roads.
Connectivity and cash
Signal fades after Singhik toward Lachung; inform family beforehand and carry cash for optional Zero Point jeeps or rental jackets in Lachung.
