Life at Nepal

Potato or "aloo" is a very Nepali thing. You can eat an aloo, or you know, you can be an aloo if your friends call you that lovingly. Who doesn't love aloo? Well if you ever ask anyone to volunteer to eating french fries or any sort of dish which includes potatoes, I'll always be the first one in line. In Nepali, there is a saying "Potato is the king of vegetables". This is because they can be eaten in a hundred different ways; boiled, fried, pickled, in soups, as stand-alone dishes and as a part of cooked meals. Late at night and need a quick time easy bite?

If you're someone who doesn't like things to be too spicy but can handle a little bit of spice here and there, y

Thamel as always has been one of the most popular places in Kathmandu Valley. It is a hot spot for locals as well as people who come here .There's always something to explore in Thamel, Even as native of Kathmandu,i have not fully explored Thamel.There's always a new place or a new club or even a new guest house each time you go. Yes, this place it truly fascinating, and yes, I got to know about this place by exploring too. A few days ago, as I was passing by a small alley in Thamel , I found a shop called "Shavi's Fries", it had the words "fries" so I obviously went in . I'd initially gone for fries, but I found something else there as well. It's new name struck me the most as we usually don't get them in Nepal ,and that, my friends, is how i was introduced to churros. Churros! Isn't that a fun name? It tastes about as fun as it sounds too. This tasty bite is basically made up of fried dough pastry and it'
