Overview
Nepal is a country of diverse group of people. There is no better way to understand Nepal and Nepali people, than through their cuisine. Nepal does not have one distinct cooking style. However, food habits differ depending on the region. Nepali food has been influenced by Indian and Tibetan styles of cooking. Authentic Nepali taste is found in Newari and Thakali cuisines which are available in a large number of eateries spread all over the valley. Among the many options in Nepal’s tourism products, Nepali food can be considered heaven for culinary tourism. The multi-ethnic and multi-cultural disposition of Nepal offers unlimited choice of cuisines based on region, religion, ethnicity, culture, festivals, environment and diverse climatic conditions.
Wherever you go, your trip would be incomplete without getting an opportunity to taste the local cuisine. Kathmandu offers a diverse range of local food that reflects the cultural richness of Nepal. Some popular dishes include momos (dumplings filled with meat or vegetables), dal bhat (a traditional meal of rice and lentil soup served with vegetables and sometimes meat), sel roti (a traditional Nepali deep-fried bread), and Newari cuisine such as bara (fried lentil patties) and yomari (a sweet dumpling). Street food like chatamari (Nepali pizza) and samosas are also popular choices. The flavors often incorporate spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili, creating a delicious and aromatic culinary experience.
Kathmandu food tour can be a best choice before or after your himalyan journeys in Nepal himalayas. The tour offers an incredible opportunities to explore the vibrant markets, restaurants, and family-run eateries, ensuring a personalized, intimate experience.
The Kathmandu Food Tour is perfect for vegetarians as apart from the Momo place everything is purely vegetarian. The momo place serves buffalo and chicken momos, but vegetarians can choose veggie momos instead of course.
