A power lunch for your power week at Cafe Kathmandu

Drop in at the cafe in south Kolkata between noon and 4pm

Whether you’ve skipped breakfast to make it in time for that morning meeting, or whether you want a substantial lunch to precede a light dinner, the three-course afternoon meal at Cafe Kathmandu is the sustenance you might need.

What’s on offer? A salad to begin with. The cafe prides itself on fresh ingredients, so the leaves are crunchy and the dressing light. It’ll prep your stomach for the next course: a choice of rice bowls or pasta. For us, the Chicken Stroganoff (herb rice with creamy chicken) was a definite winner, besides being lighter than the pasta (available in red or white sauce).

Dessert is a choice between Zucchini Arabica Coffee Cake or Choco Fudge Brownie, which we suggest ordering with coffee on the side. Drop in between 12-4pm!

Pro tip: Try the Honey Cinnamon Latte.

Addresses: 351 Jodhpur Park and 33A Lake Avenue

Closed on Mondays.
