About Wild Yak

Northcote regulars know Wild Yak as High Street’s late-night lifeline for handmade Tibetan cooking. When nearby kitchens close their doors after 9:30 PM, this warm dining room keeps dishing out crisp signature fried beef momos alongside steamed chura cheese dumplings. Diners lean into generous plates built for sharing—hearty beef thentuk soup, radish chicken, and sweet-and-sour Sha Nyamo-Kyurmo scooped up with steamed tingmo bread.

  • Handmade Momos: Signature fried beef, steamed chicken, and chura cheese dumplings rolled by hand.
  • Hearty Tibetan Mains: Substantial, sharing-friendly portions of beef thentuk, radish chicken, and Sha Nyamo-Kyurmo.
  • Late-Night Kitchen: A reliable High Street kitchen serving hot dinner late into the evening past 10 PM.
