Himalayan Kitchen



I worked a six day week this week and we decided to celebrate my only night off with a nice dinner out in North Adelaide.

It was a lovely little place, very homely. with beutiful photos of Nepal on the wall and some interesting wall ornaments.



After a long look at the many options on the Menu (Sorry it's such a bad photo)


We started with a bottle of Tasmanian Pinot,



And picked 2 mains and a handful of sides instead of starters.

There was a bit of a delay in the kitchen so these Pakora arrived at our table with a spicy potato dip in the centre,

They were very taty in a chickpea batter, with a tasty little salad to go with.



Our mains arrived and looked and smelled wonderful.


The Boy chose the Goat from the main menu "Slow cooked Tender Goat in traditional Tibetan manner enriched with mustard oil and fenugreek" $21.90


I chose the Organic Spinach Chicken Curry "Oven cooked with ginger, garlic and tomato, in spinach puree, with optional chilli" $22.95


For our sides we chose Aloo Achar "Spicy potato salad, made with peas,onion, lemon juice, red chilli and a mustard oil dressing $7.00


and Pickle "Hot tomato and garlic" $2.00 Not at all what we were expecting but really tasty.


And of course Dal "Traditional red lentals simmered with cumin and garlic $7.50
I think dal is a great way to judge the quality of the kitchen, If the dal is so good you'd be happy to just have it for your meal you know the rest of the food is going to be good.

Dinner was fantastic, Probably not the best Nepalese in Adelaide that title still belongs to Namaste in Parkside but really tasty food in a place we would't usually hang out.

We had an Entertainment voucher $20 off our bill. It was still expensive but nice for a special night out.
