Montys of Kathmandu

Montys of Kathmandu Review

Montys proudly declares itself the "only Nepalese restaurant in Dublin." Was there ever any doubt? The bland decor is nothing to write home about, but the food at this little eatery in the middle of hypermodern Temple Bar is as authentic as it is unique. Poleko squid (lightly spiced and barbecued in a tandoori oven and served in a sizzler) or lamb Choila (with fresh chilis, ginger, garlic, herbs, and a dash of red wine) are the more adventurous starters. For a main course try Mo Mo, dumplings served with Mo Mo chutney, a favorite street dish in Kathmandu. The wine cellar is surprisingly varied.
