LOCAL CUISINE

In terms of gastronomy, Chitwan offers taste from international, continental cuisine to different local and indigenous specialties. While international cuisine options are available in all top hotels and resorts, local taste can be had with a little sojourn of roadside restaurants and eateries. Nepali Terai-style set and Tharu-style set are popular options. Similarly, Taas, which is spicy-fried goat meat served with beaten rice, is a must try when visiting Chitwan. For those on an adventure of the palate, do not miss Tharu delicacies like: Ghongi, water snail stuffed and cooked in gravy; Dhikri, steamed-rice dough in different shapes and eaten with chutney; Sidhra, dried or fresh crab  and fish variety; barbecued pork or field mice.
