Mishing people are mainly non-vegetarian and rice is their main food. They eat different greens and herbs as vegetable together with fish, pork, chicken, duck meat etc. Namsing is a very popular dish among Mishing people. Namsing is nothing but dry and grounded fish .

Alpine Retreat : Best Homestay In Guwahati : A Review

 If you are looking for a best homestay in Guwahati, then I will highly recommend to check out the  Alpine retreat homestay, a lovely urban apartment at the right of the  heart of the area.  During our last visit to Guwahati, we had decided to stay at a homestay instead of staying in a hotel. The reason of choosing a homestay over a hotel is that we wanted a homely atmosphere and a homestay is a kind of accommodation where tourists are treated like guests, not clients and they are given rooms to stay together with the host family in the same house. A homestay is after all someone's home. In homestay we don't have to confined in a single room just like in a hotel. As the American novelist Edgar Watson Howe beautifully quoted  "To be an ideal guest, stay at home. ".  Alpine retreat is a lovely urban apartment that provides homestay with patio. Just 4.5 km from Paltan Bazar railway station, located on the G.S road,  Alpine retreat is easily accessible and surrounded by
