Flavours of the Himalayas and beyond
At Himalayan Hideaway Resort Pokhara the dining experience is as scintillating as the surrounding landscape is breathtaking. Four distinctive outlets each offer a refined culinary encounter as together they trace a flavourful route through and beyond Nepal - from authentic Nepali classics to pan-Asian delights and international favourites.
Sunrise breakfasts and sunset dinners can be enjoyed at the all-day dining The Bistro, along with a vibrant menu of local and international cuisine including Nepalese and Indian from morning til evening. Set against a relaxing backdrop of green hills, it is the ideal place to gather, savour and unwind before and after each memorable day’s adventure.
Specialty restaurant Thai Kitchen honours the artistry of pan-Asian cuisine, in a celebration of Indian, Chinese and Thai flavours all of them rich and bold. Thoughtfully curated dishes are savoured in an elegant setting of Asian-inspired decor, with the shimmering swimming pool right alongside.
Overlooking the pool is the Summit bar and lounge, serving a range of drinks from around the world and signature cocktails imbued with a Himalayan touch as well as light bites from the poolside menu. Whether for a mid-morning refreshment, sunset tipple or late night indulgence, it’s the perfect spot.
Nestled in the upper area of the resort, the Tea House offers an exceptional choice of teas sourced from all over Nepal. Ranging from calming herbal infusions to robust Himalayan blends, each cup is complemented by sweet or savoury treats. A tranquil venue in which to pause, unwind and restore balance after the latest explorations, the Tea House is open twice a day in the morning and afternoon.
For guests wanting to discover some new culinary skills they can enjoy long after their stay, the resort has hands-on cooking classes guided by the resident chefs. There are traditional Nepalese dishes like momo, sel roti and yomari to learn along with the stories behind each recipe, as well as Thai delights like tom yum soup, green curry, pad Thai and mango with sticky rice.
