Duration:

Description
This experience invites you into a traditional Nepali home where a loving grandmother prepares Dhindo, Nepal’s national mountain food, using age-old methods passed down through generations.
You’ll be welcomed into a local home where a Nepali granny greets you with a smile and warm tea. As she prepares Dhindo by hand, you’ll see how this simple but powerful dish has fed Nepali families for centuries, especially in the hills and mountains.
While the meal cooks, hear stories of village life, old traditions, and how food connects generations. Then sit together on low seating, eat with your hands if you wish, and experience Dhindo the traditional way, slow, shared, and full of heart.
Dhindo is not just food — it’s Nepal’s soul.
