Old Town & Cooking

It starts with a cup of coffee and a walk: through the lanes of the old bazaar where the chef knows every stall by first name, picking out vegetables, spices and the morning’s fish.

Back at the hotel you cook dal bhat — rice, lentils, two vegetables and a pickle — with guidance and no judgement, then eat it together in the garden. You leave with the recipe and a full stomach.
