Short stop in Nepal #2 - Food

When you come to Nepal for the first time, you can´t wait to taste their typical meal - Dal bhat. It is a plate with different variations of pickled or cooked but spicy vegetables, rice and lentils soup. You will never get the same Dhal bat in two restaurants as everyone has their own way of preparation.Když jste poprvé v Nepálu, toužíte ochutnat jejich typickou pochoutku - Dal bhat. Je to variace nakládané nebo vařené zeleniny, rýže a čočková polévka. Nikde v Nepálu nenajdete dva stejné Dal bhaty, protože je každý připravuje po svém.

It is very delicious but if you eat it every day for a week, most probably you don´t even want to hear these two words. Then, the second option from the menu can be momo dumplings.Je to opravdu pochoutka, ale když ho jíte každý den týden v kuse, už o něm nechcete ani slyšet. Pak si můžete vybrat další, mé nejoblíbenější nepálské jídlo, momo knedlíčky.

They can be filled with meat or vegetables or cheese and they are really tasty (my most favourite meal from Nepalese cuisine).Jsou plněné masem nebo zeleninou či sýrem a jsou opravdu vynikající.

Food offer is quite different in the cities and in the villages. The higher altitude you are at, the less options you have. Usually, some fried noodles, fried egg rolls or meals similar to Chinese cuisine are served.Nabídka jídel ve městech a na vesnicích se liší. V čím vyšší nadmořské výšce jste, o to méně možností máte. Obvykle jsou to smažené nudle nebo vaječné závitky a jídla podobná čínské kuchyni.
It is not so easy for a person with quite a healthy lifestyle to eat fried noodles for seven days in a row but you can survive.Pokud se snažíte jíst zdravě, po týdnu smažených nudlí vám z toho jdou oči šejdrem, ale přežít se to dá.
And then, as a reward you definitely appreciate a yak steak.A jako odměnu si pak někde dáte jačí steak.

Or this fancy chicken leg.Nebo tohle vymazlené kuřecí stehno.

And as a proper dessert, there is this wild honey on the Nepalese market. It is said to have hallucinatory effects because wild bees gather the pollen from poisonous flowers. We slowly tried to eat one spoon, more spoons, one jar... and nothing happened. It´s a good way to make a foreigner to eat the whole jar of honey. But it really exists and works but it is sold only in mountain villages by local people.A jako dokonalý dezert poslouží divoký med. Prý má halucinogennní účinky, protože divoké včely sbírají pyl z jedovatých rostlin. A tak jsme pomalu ochutnali lžíci, více lžic, až jsme snědli celou sklenici... a nic se nestalo. Dost dobrý způsob jak donutit cizince sníst celou zavařovačku medu. Ale opravdu existuje, jen jej musíte hledat v horských vesnicích u místních.

And as I am a coffee lover, I cannot skip my coffee with the best view ever. I know it doesn´t look like this from this photo but it really was. Coffee and cookies on the hotel roof watching Annapurna and other Himalayan giants.A protože opravdu miluju kávu, nemůžu vynechat kafe a sušenky s tím nejkrásnějším výhledem. Vím, že z fotky níže to tak nevypadá, ale stálo to za to. Kafe na střeše hotelu s výhledem na Annapurnu a další himalájské obry.
