While in Kathmandu

Operating as New York's first Nepalese coffee shop and bar, this Ridgewood neighborhood staple shifts from a laid-back breakfast spot by day into a lively evening lounge. The kitchen is tucked inside a traditional Nepalese hut built directly into the exposed brick interior, serving handmade noodles, spicy traditional chicken dishes, and signature Jhol Momos in a flavorful broth. Guests can dine indoors beneath stained-glass lamps or head out to the backyard during warmer months.
