Himalayan Comfort Food Across Japan
Nepalese cuisine — dal bhat, momo dumplings and gently layered spices — is comfort food you can eat every day. In Japan it often goes hand in hand with Indian cooking, and many of the restaurants on Halal Gourmet Japan's Nepalese page are registered under both cuisines, found in Tokyo as well as regional areas such as Aichi, Nagano and Kyoto.
In Aichi, one restaurant fuses the flavors of Nepal's highland regions with fresh Japanese ingredients such as seafood, aiming for natural food seasoned with beneficial spices and free of chemical additives. It offers some halal dishes and invites guests to check the details with the staff before ordering.
When you find yourself craving spices on the road, open the map and see which Nepalese kitchen is closest to your route.
