Visit Hilo: Kamana Nepali Cuisine

Kamana Nepali Cuisine recently opened up in Hilo.  They are a sister restaurant to Kamana Kitchen, one of my favorite spots in Hilo.

Fried Momo

Fried Momo are essentially dumplings filled with cabbage and onions.  I loved the crunch!

Chili Chicken

Tender chunks of chicken, along with eggplant and onions, were cooked in a chili sauce.  The sauce was not too spicy, but it had some nice heat.   

Chatpate

The Chatpate is a snack made with puffed rice, crunchy noodles, peas, onions, and other veggies. It's mixed with Himalayan spices. I liked the contrasting textures, but the peas were undercooked (my friend said they were raw).  We are not sure if it's supposed to be like that, but they gave the dish a very "vegetal" flavor as he described it, which overpowered the entire dish.

Although nothing really stood out to me personally, it's always great to try new (to me) dishes.
