Nepalese

San Francisco, June 8, 2012—
DOWN TO WHAT WE Berkeleyans still call The City today to see an exhibition at the museum, and why not have dinner with old friends not seen for years? We met at a neighborhood ethnic spot near them, a favorite of theirs, and I can see why.

We started with the Mismas Pakauda: Spinach, onion, chickpea flour, spices, all stir-fried, served with mint and tamarind chutneys — which in fact seemed more like sauces.

Then, on to Khasiko Pakuwa: lamb cooked with tomato, onion, garlic, ginger, and spices. What could go wrong with that? Nothing. It was delicious.
