Makye Ame is one of the most famous Tibetan restaurants, which can be considered as a representative of Tibetan food in a sense. By a walk into the door, visitors seem to have left the modern metropolis and could enjoy leisure time in Tibet with both the exotic cuisine and culture.

The restaurant is full of Tibetan ambiance. There are Tibetan styled furniture and adornments in the hall with Thangka paintings hung on the wall and unique lamps throwing warm lights. Handsome waiters and pretty waitresses wearing Tibetan costumes would speak Tibetans with each other and Mandarin and some foreign languages with the guests. The most fabulous should be the folk singing and dancing performances by Tibetan artists, which always attract many customers apart from the Tibetan food.
