Best restaurants in Kathmandu
Kathmandu eating, as people tell it, runs on thakali and momo: dal bhat at Mantra Thakali, the chicken gravy thakali at ThakKhola, momo at Shandar Momo, jhol momo at Mahabharat Momo, Tibetan momo and thukpa at Tashi Delek, and Newari snacks like bara and chhoela at Honacha. Some feel Mantra Thakali and Honacha have slipped.
