At Yeti – The Himalayan Kitchen, every meal is a journey through the mountains, and the Veg Thakali Thali is one of its most comforting routes. A complete Nepali meal, it brings together an array of wholesome, home-style dishes served in perfect harmony. The platter features your choice of paneer or mushroom curry, paired with pahadi daal, gundruk, saag, fried potatoes, pickles, fried bitter gourd, lentil wafers, curd, and komolar kheer, all served with rice or flatbread. It’s not just food, it’s an experience that celebrates balance, simplicity, and Himalayan warmth.
The Essence of Nepali Cuisine
In the Himalayan regions of Nepal, a meal isn’t complete without the Thakali Thali, a wholesome platter that brings every flavor and texture together. At Yeti Restaurant, the Veg Thakali Thali captures this tradition with remarkable finesse.
Each component of the thali plays a distinct role: the Pahadi daal adds comfort with its earthy depth, the gundruk (fermented leafy greens) offers tangy notes, and the saag brings freshness and nutrition. The crisp fried bitter gourd and fried potatoes provide crunch, while the pickles add a zesty kick. The smooth curd and sweet komolar kheer round off the meal beautifully, balancing spice and sweetness.
The heart of the meal, however, lies in the vegetarian curry, your choice of paneer or mushroom. Both are slow-cooked with Himalayan spices, creating a dish that’s rich yet light, aromatic yet grounding. Together, these elements make the Veg Thakali Thali a complete sensory and cultural experience.
