Peaceful Restaurant

Bhaktapur


This delightful restaurant occupies two courtyards behind the souvenir shops on the south side of Tachupal Tole. Duck your head and wander through to the second shady, peaceful courtyard. The menu covers Italian, Mexican, Indian, Chinese and Nepali dishes, and it is rather well done. Shame the beer is a bit expensive. Taxes included.
