We were hoping to try something outside of the Plaza and Murray Building, and wandered past this restaurant run by a Nepalese family on a small street in Stanley. There was "indoor" and "outdoor" seating even in winter, but actually it all feels the same as there was no partition and the cool winter air filled the place. The temperature called for a hot Masala tea, which was smooth and rich in flavour. Pompadoms were served with mango chutney and mint sauce, and that got us into the mood of goin
The lamb salad and Mulligatawny soup were served at the same time, the salad was tasty with tender pieces of lamb, while the soup was quite light in consistency and thus not overly filling. Then came the Himalayan chicken, the fried eggplant and potato, accompanied by the lamb naan bread. The chicken was tender and beautifully seasoned, while the fragrant eggplant and potatos was a small but hearty dish brought alive by wonderful spices. The minced lamb in the naan was a slightly disturbing reddish-orange colour, but the bread itself was fine, though not as fluffy with large air pockets as some others in town. The young lad serving us was very friendly and polite and we got talking about the daggers hanging over the bar. The food was overall quite tasty, but the portions are on the small side.
