This Newari snack is as old as Newari civilization. Kathmandu is home for Newar people who have their own culture, festivals and food. Until recently junk food from abroad takes its place, this is what local Newar people used to eat in the Kathmandu Valley. In Newari tradition we must eat dried fried fish and boiled egg to bring a good luck. So we eat them at weddings, birthdays, festivals or when a family is traveling abroad.

“Very kind guide”
I had a walk around tour in Kathmandu and outing to Nagatkot, monkey temple, Patan and Bakthapur Durbar squares. Susan was very kind, went out of her way to accommodate my wishes- including choosing the right kurti, pashmina, haggling for the price of ceramics... it was a very enjoyable time and I certainly recommend Susan as a competent guide!
