RESTAURANTS
Allen ’ s menu is divided into snacks , small and large plates , sides and desserts with dishes such as Gurhka Pickles ; Kukura ko Jhol Momo ( steamed chicken dumplings in a tomato and soybean soup ); Mutton Sekuwa with onion and coriander ; and chargrilled Monkfish Choila and Pork Chop with Sisnu ( nettle ). There will also be a reasonably priced six-course tasting menu (£ 75 ).
Joe has travelled extensively across Kathmandu , Chitwan and Pokhara immersing himself in the culture , sampling delicacies and trying his hand at wild boar butchery , and will bring his experiences to life , plate by plate . He last brought Nepalese food to the capital post his appearance on BBC ’ s My Million Pound Menu – attracting investment from restaurateur Jamie Barber to set-up Kitycow , a three-month pop-up at Hush Mayfair with his then business partner .
The restaurant will be supporting The Gurkha Welfare Trust , donating 50p from every Gurkha Pickle dish sold to aid Gurkha veterans , their families , and communities .
