Life at Nepal

Let's face it, we all have those days when we're penniless. I don't know about you guys, but if I look at my situation I'm broke almost 50% of the time, and tbh that's because I spend most of my money on food. Anyways, I've made this post so as to help you guys out, because trust me I know how it feels. So, let's get the list started- 1) Narayan Dai ko momo Momos! who doesn't love momo? If you're a Nepali, I'm pretty sure you enjoy having momos. One of my favorite places to go to for momos whether I'm plenty on cash or broke, would have to be "Narayan Dai's momo". I don't think this place would ever let you down.  With the juicy momo and the "takka pareko jhol", it makes you fall in love with it and is totally worth the 150rs. Samosa 2)  Tiptop  If it was up to me I would have samosas every single day. Every time I get a chance to go to Newroad, I make sure to go here because it's sup

Laphin! Half of you may have drooled on hearing this name (and the picture) and the other half may be wondering what this new species is. For the other half, Laphin is originally a Tibetan dish and it has been getting quite popular in the Kathmandu valley as well. It is a cold noodle dish. The interesting thing about the dish particularly is the noodles, the noodles are made from starches extracted either from potato or flour, and is cooked overnight. Once the extract has settled, they are cut and formed into noodles before being dipped in a sauce made from dried chilies and vinegar. Laphin is quite popular in the valley and many places have tried to put their own unique kick to it. I'm a big fan of laphin. You could also say I've tried almost every type of laphin found in the valley at least. The place I visited for this blog to be posted is 109 degree. They had quite a unique dish which as you know is chicken laphin! There aren't many places that sell chicken lap

If you're a Nepalese and not had any single street food till the day, are you really Nepalese? I am a big street food enthusiastic, I would be ready in any given time of day to embark on the glorious sausages, mushrooms, syabhaley and other delicacies that you get. These are my personal favorites- 1.Egg roll in Boudha I don’t think that many people know of this hidden gem. It lies in the alleyway of AT Burger near Boudha Stupa. They have this small stall which only opens in the evening and certainly serves the best egg roll you could find. They stuff the roti with half-boiled egg and other heavenly things which I don’t know the name of, but it’s definitely one of my personal favorites. The best part is it costs you less than 100 Rs. Also, make sure you reach there at around 4–6 because they’re in limited stock. 2. Chaat in front of People’s Plaza I was one of those people who was never really fond of chaats or eateries of that sort, but this place definitely made an i

Momos! Us Nepalese could easily declare momo as the national food of Nepal. Whether we go to an expensive restaurant or not we'll always have that one order of momo among the other good stuff. For those of you who don't know what a momo is (which I highly doubt), well it's a steamed bun with some sort of filling, it can be anything that you wish, literally! Today's dish is "The Sizzling Momo", which I tried in the Trafford restaurant which is located inside the "Baneshwor mall" in New Baneshwor.Honestly, this was one of the best momos that I've had in a long time. With the sizzling sound that it is served with and the tangy sauce with which it is covered with, the spiciness, this combo is definitely the best. If you love spicy food or can also handle a bit of spice, you'll love it! I'm not a big fan of spicy food (well unless it's hot wings )  but this was an exceptional case since it surely was a tasty bite! Price- Rs 175

What's the only triangle shape that everyone loves? Pizzas! You could pick any random human, and I’m sure that out of a hundred people, eighty would like pizza. Well, I also fall in that 80% majority, and I am a self-proclaimed pizza enthusiast. I’d eat pizza all day, every day if I could. It is my go-to comfort food. There's a lot of pizza hubs in Kathmandu and the one that stood out to me the most was Pizza World. By the name itself you can already tell that it specializes in pizza and I think that they do stand up to their name. It is a large food chain, so it has a lot of branches all over the town. The one I went to was in Bouddha. Bouddha is one of the most peaceful places in Kathmandu. You can come here and just be yourself and enjoy the surrounding. There are a lot of famous dishes here that you can get too, from laphin to other special noodles! All of those delicacies could be potential future topics, but for now, let’s talk very enthusiastically about

Source: Google Vegetarians, vegans, allergic people aside, the rest of us love chicken! It is pretty much a staple diet, and is a frequent visitor in our kitchen. Let’s talk about this ingredient that nobody seems to want to miss out on. Let’s talk chicken! You guys have probably heard about "Fuchhey Restaurant". It's getting famous as the days go by, since it serves some of the best food with such great deals! Trust me, I'm not sponsored by the restaurant in any way, although I wish I was. This beautiful restaurant lies right at putalisadak where you just have to walk a few meters on the left. The space , the people all seem to be just perfect . Honestly the first thing that struck out to me when I went here was the menu. I remember thinking to myself, “Wow! This is so affordable.”. I promise you, if you're on a budget, this is the place for you! I ordered the "Chicken Batuka", which was served in a bowl with an egg at the top . The dis
