Travelogue: By Country | By Date Nepal | June 2001  

 

Dhal Bhat, rice and lentil soup and vegetables and a little pickle and hot sauce. The list of components is the same all over, but the taste varies widely. This is the regular Nepali dinner. It is customary for the cook to offer more of everything, so it's a wonderful thing to order while hiking. Since it's the offseason, we often had to wait an hour or so before the food was ready, but that was a nice (and usually interesting) way to rest in the middle of the day.
