Pokhara｜The "Pretty Meal" I Had for Just a Few Bucks!

It’s been ages since I got back home, but I still can’t get over my days in Pokhara 💭. -/ Ever since I returned, I’ve been raving about it to everyone: if you’re on a budget and want to just chill, Pokhara is the place to be 🌟. And when you’re in Pokhara, you have to hit Blossom! My first impression of Nepal—all dusty and gray—vanished the second I walked into this spot. It’s such a chic, cozy, lovely little place 🏡. From the front desk to the kitchen, every staff member wears a big smile, like they’re brimming with happiness 😊. -/ The owner is this incredibly warm, helpful Korean sister 👩🏻. When I landed, I got off the taxi and couldn’t find the place, so I called the shop 📞. She patiently gave me directions, then even came out to look for me—so sweet! She’s also super business-savvy—this place isn’t just a café ☕ or a hotel 🏨. It handles local travel bookings ✈️, has a bar 🍹, and even does manicures 💅! I saw so many digital nomads staying here long-term—it’s perfect for gap time 🌱💻. -/ As a café, the vibe is amazing. There’s a terrace with views of snow-capped mountains 🏔️, and the whole place is so thoughtfully designed 🎨. Lots of locals even make the trip from Kathmandu just to check it out 📸. -/ I even met my first German friend here 🇩🇪! He’d just finished the ACT trek and took a taxi here specifically for coffee before heading home. We added each other on Instagram and still chat sometimes—mostly in German (though I mostly relied on a translator app, lol 🗣️🔄). -/ But the best part for me? The dogs! There are 3 of them 🐶🐶🐶, and they’re super cuddly 🐾. I spent every day in bliss, snuggling that chubby pup 🥰. Already missing this place (thanks to the pups, let’s be real ❤️💭). #PokharaHotelBlossom #HiddenGems #AmbienceDining #PrettyMeal #RestaurantRecommendations #Nepal #Pokhara #PokharaLiving
