Highlights

With its rich geographical, ecological and ethnic diversity, Nepal has a plethora of unique dishes to offer. The food here is not just a basic need or for the taste, it is an integral part of the lifestyle. The capital Kathmandu, which is a melting pot of people from all over the country, provides a huge and diverse menu for people to choose from. Being a business and trade hub of the country, Kathmandu also is home to individuals of diverse cultures, races, and ethnicity. Regardless of the distinctions, assimilating them into a single roof, Kathmandu also innovates and improvises its lifestyle and food culture. Hence, a multitudinous array of food! This Nepal Food Tasting Tour: Taste Like a Local tour will take you to experience the Nepalese food culture. Nepalese cuisine comprises a variety of cuisines based on ethnicity, soil, and climate relating to Nepal’s cultural diversity and geography.

Itinerary

Arrival and Nepali Cuisine
  • Kathmandu

    3 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Upon your arrival at the Kathmandu airport, our representative will welcome you and transfer you to the hotel. You can rest relax and enjoy your time in the hotel or you can stroll around the city. As part of our program, in the evening our representative will take you to enjoy the traditional Thakali khana. The set may include rice or dhindo, as per choice. Dhindo, made of buckwheat, is ideal for diabetics, it is also something very hard to find in other countries. Gundruk, a part of this dish, is spicy dried spinach that is also exclusively made in Nepal. You can choose either vegetarian or non-vegetarian, both serving equally authentic Nepali tastes. This kind of meal usually comes with the opportunity to add further rice, lentils, veggies, and pickles. Plus, many places offer extras such as papad- a thin disc-shaped crispy food or Mohi- a thin mixture of yogurt and water. These extras not only soothe the taste buds but also have dietary and digestive benefits.

Momo can be found in various shapes, sizes, styles, and even colors. Momos at local shops are the most loved by the people here. The size of the dumplings varies, depending on the price. The achaar (pickle) accompanying the steamed momos has a lip-smacking taste that lingers. Recently, momos have undergone several modifications open momo, c-momo, tea momo, rainbow momo, etc. In the evening, you can taste the Roti and Nann-Tandoori Chicken/ Sekuwa. You can even go for a hike or also a Mountain Flight on this day with extra charge. You can enjoy the serene beauty of Nepal.

Tibetan food- Boudha & Taste Juju Dhau-Bhaktapur Driving Duration: 1-2 hours
  • Boudhha

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Boudha has long established itself as the home of Tibetans within the Kathmandu Valley. In recent years, Boudha has started garnering attention for being the Tibetan food center of Kathmandu, and the credit in part to their contrasting taste to the typical Nepali palette and in part, of course, to the ambiance of peace and serenity that the sacred place bestows upon us. Popular foods to taste in Boudha: Laphing, Khapse, Thukpa, Thentuk, Shaphaly, etc. Boudha is popular for the stupa it has. Many tourists come to visit the big Bouddhanath Stupa. If you would like to visit the Bouddhanath Stupa, you can also visit there and enjoy the enchant and aroma of unique incense.
  • Bhaktapur

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    At Bhaktapur, you will taste the delicious Juju Dhau. The king of curds it is! Many companies throughout the world sell curd in amazing-looking packages, but none taste like Juju Dhau, rightfully known as King Curd. If you are in Nepal and have not tasted the thick, creamy, sweet, and soft Juju Dhau of Bhaktapur, your sweet tooth is lacking a treat. It is inexpensive, easily available, and amazingly delicious. Also if there is anything left out from Kirtipur, you can taste the newari food in Bhaktapur as well. If you want you can also visit Bhaktapur durbar square and know more about the history of the valley. Also, you can be a part of a pottery class and make some clay pots.
