Hidden gem of Darjeeling. I am glad I found this place. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, with a breathtaking view of the surrounding hills. I had the opportunity to taste great quality tea and chat in peace with a friend. The owner of Outskirts is a very friendly young man. The service was top notch. I truly recommend it!
