What a find, impromptu dinner out and happened upon Chef Dev’s restaurant Baseri. Lively with several tables despite being a Tuesday night. A warm welcoming bright modern interior with lots of authentic Buddhist and Nepalese cultural touches. After being greeted warmly, my mother & I were shown to a lovely table and within minutes had given our drinks order. Such attentive service; owner and head chef Dev boasts an extraordinary forty year culinary journey covering continents and we are lucky enough to have him here! He introduced himself, welcoming us personally. He took the opportunity to share his experience and advice on menu choices letting us know his personal recommendations that he’d prepare to our preference. The food was served promptly, nicely presented and cooked absolutely beautifully. It was so delicious, the aromats and spicing were perfectly balanced, the flavours were rich and mouthwatering. The lamb and duck were so tender and cooked to perfection. The roti and stuffed paratha were pillowy, light and delicious. Every single mouthful was sensational. The staff were very attentive, chatty and pleasant, showing a genuine interest in our visit and experience. Two very generous courses with a drink came to just over £55 for the two of us which for such good quality food, so well done was very reasonable. Chef once again came to see if we’d enjoyed our meal and thanked us for choosing Baseri. The whole team thanked us for our visit and wished us a good evening and a safe journey home. The attention to every detail was amazing, we left feeling that we’d discovered a true gem! I can’t wait to tell my friends, I will definitely be making this my regular “go-to” for dinner out….just loved it!!
Thank you Dev and the team.

Read moreFirst time for me in the Everest and I can definitely say it will not be the last. Myself and a few old work friends arranged a couple of days away at a local camp sire (Smeeton's Lakes). We're all retired and enjoyed a few great beers around the wonderful Newark town centre. We'd prebooked a meal at the Everest and what a find! The food was superb! Very fresh and tasty. Lots of variations of dishes I'd tried before and others well described in the menu. I tried something I'd not had before (and can't remember now) but it was like a hot chicken tikka masala. It was beautiful. Moist chicken tikka and a wonderful rich sauce. Nan breads that were fresh and grease free unlike some you get elsewhere. A very reasonable price too. We had lots of food with a mix of beer, wine and as much tap water as we wanted. Service was equally superb. The staff were very attentive and friendly and clearly took a pride in their work. When it was time to leave we asked them to call us a taxi which they offered to do but then graciously offered to give us a lift back to the campsite themselves as they weren't too busy. Two trips to manage us all. We might have had to wait a while for a taxi. I can't fault the staff at all. Above and beyond our expectation. And hence this review. It's taken me 15 mins to write, but it's the least I can do to repay their kindness. Very impressed and as I said, we will be back. I recommend the Everest to anyone wanting superb food with excellent service on your next...
