Why it's worth checking out
Taste of the Himalayas brings traditional Nepalese cooking to Brighton, using local ingredients and offering a selection of South Australian wines to match the meal. The restaurant presents its food as a considered dining experience, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere rather than a purely casual takeaway setting.
The menu includes several house specialities. The Thakali Khana Set is an arranged Nepalese plate featuring a range of main and side dishes, while the home-made momos are offered as an entree with a vegetarian option available. The chef’s special sizzling plates are another focus, with duck, fish, prawns, chicken and lamb cutlet choices listed on the site.
With table bookings, a function hall and dedicated event reservations, the venue can suit a planned dinner or a larger gathering. It is located on Brighton Road in Brighton, Adelaide, and may appeal to diners looking for Nepalese cuisine in a welcoming restaurant setting. The kitchen team’s focus on traditional dishes, local ingredients and South Australian wine gives the venue a clear sense of place without straying from its Nepalese inspiration.
