Om Restaurant

Om Restaurant 🍛🐑 If you’re on the hunt for a meal that’s both delicious and easy on the wallet, this spot in Kathmandu’s Thamel district is a total winner! It’s loved by locals and travelers alike, and once you try their dishes, you’ll see why. The star here? Undoubtedly the mutton curry 🐑🌶️—tender chunks of mutton) slow-cooked in a rich, spiced sauce that’s packed with flavor. The kitchen uses a secret blend of Nepalese spices—cumin, cardamom, cloves, and a touch of fiery red chili powder—simmered for hours until the meat falls apart at the slightest prod. Every bite is melt-in-your-mouth good, with the spices perfectly balancing the meat’s richness. It's so good that the aroma alone draws in passersby, and it’s practically a must-order! But there’s more to love, especially if you’re a fan of creamy, tangy treats—their yogurt 🥛 is the ideal way to cool down after a spicy bite. Made fresh daily with local milk, it has a velvety texture that coats your palate like silk. A sprinkle of cardamom powder and a drizzle of honey add layers of complexity, making it not just a palate cleanser but a dessert in its own right. It’s fresh, smooth, and has just the right hint of sweetness to complement the bold flavors of the curry. And here’s the best part: (except for the mutton), you can get unlimited refills on rice, curry vegetables, and soup! 🍚🥦 The basmati rice arrives fluffy and fragrant, perfectly absorbing the curry's sauce. The vegetable medley changes daily, featuring seasonal produce like cauliflower, eggplant, and okra cooked in a light tomato-based curry. Wash it all down with a steaming bowl of lentil soup, thick with turmeric and ginger. That means you can fill up as much as you want, making it an amazing deal—especially since the average price per person is around 300 Nepalese Rupees 🤑. Located right in Thamel, it’s super convenient to find while exploring the area 📍. Whether you’re starving after a day of sightseeing or just craving a hearty, satisfying meal, Om Restaurant delivers on taste, value, and that warm, welcoming vibe. You’ll leave full and happy—guaranteed! 😊🍴 #Pokhara
