Food & Drink

Experience the diverse and flavorful delights of Nepalese cuisine.

The common ingredients in Nepalese cuisine are lentils, potatoes, tomatoes, coriander, chillies, peppers, garlic, and mustard oil. The national dish dal bhaat is a rice and lentil stew, and is available as street food. A must-try during Nepal tours. Meat dumplings or momos are popular; meat may be substituted with veggies, and the momos may be steamed or fried. If you have a sweet tooth, bite into Sel Roti, a chewy doughnut-shaped dessert seasoned with cardamom.
