Ahh, the serenity. There are winking table-top candles, calming pictures of mountain vistas on the walls, and soothing music. But you'll snap to attention when the food arrives. Momos - tender steamed dumplings filled with subtly spiced minced veg or chicken - reach great heights when dunked in tomato relish made creamy with sesame; do the same with crisp-tailed char-grilled prawns, which arrive atop a delicate pilaf. Curries pop with flavour, such as the popular mushroom dal saag with its silky spinach sauce. Service is humble and charming, and infused olive oils and spice mixes are available to take home, too.
