Quite a few notches above your average high-street curry house, the Great Gurkhas serves accomplished Nepalese/Newari cuisine with lashings of charm. It’s a winning combination that attracts
throngs of loyal regulars, who are drawn by the ‘best & widest choice of vegetarian options for many miles around’: try makai sag (sweetcorn with spinach) or pahadi (mixed vegetables cooked
with green chilli paste). The kitchen also turns out a full range of authentic, delicately blended specialities ranging from phewa chicken (cooked in a sauce with 12 whole spices) & pan-fried
lamb tareko masu to peero macha (monkfish in coconut milk with curry leaves). There’s also an intriguing range of rice & breads to provide the necessary ballast.
