No-Name Restaurant

Bhaktapur


This nameless hole-in-the-wall consists of little more than a hot plate and a bucket of pancake mix, but it serves up delicious street food. The main item on the menu is wo (called bara in Nepali), a savoury lentil pancake. It can be served 'plain', two pancakes and a chickpea soup, or 'mixed' with eggs and meat.

Look for the sign advertising 'Nepal bara-wo available here' and squeeze yourself into the two-table cubby hole adjoining Tadhunchen Bahal.
