Yala Layeku Kitchen — Restaurant in Lalitpur Metropolitan City

The latest visit and my second one to this place last night was surprisingly much better. I didn't have high expectation since few years ago we were there once and they brought this crappy pizza to us. But last night seems like they've been better and have placed careful enhancements in the food they serve. The architecture of this place has always been great. The feeling of being at higher level in the very roadside cafe of the Patan Durbar Square, gazing at the aura of this world heritage side, gazing the locals, strangers and with them the different activities in the courtyard of the Durbar itself is really cool. You have to be here to understand it. The service was good, finally the food they serve has complimented the experience you have here that you really cannot...

Right after getting down from the taxi in front of Patan Durbar Square in Lalitpur, this traditional Newari style restaurant caught our attention, so we decided to head in for lunch. The traditional wooden decor and large windows overlooking the Durbar Square created a pleasant and inviting atmosphere.

We ordered Chicken Chowmein, Mutton Sekuwa and Chicken Chatamari. The Chowmein was average. Chicken pieces were considerably less and the Chowmein was overly spicy. The Sekuwa was good. The mutton was charred to perfection and the pieces were sizeable and juicy. The Chatamari was passable. This was my first time trying Chatamari aka Newari Pizza, and unfortunately the experience was not quite memorable as I found the Chatamari...

This is the place you want to go if you want to see the full view of Patan Durbar square and at the same time enjoy the food. Limited space but I like how they have utilized the space as their plus points. The window seats are the best. I ordered momos, sizzler and pizza. Sizzler was the best among the three dishes. They seriously need to work on the pizzas. The service was quick though. In the past, I had very bad experiences here. I gave it one more chance and must say that they're doing better now. The restaurant still needs to work on the quality...
