Tusa
Nagpokhari, Bhaktapur, Nepal

Tusa brings a contemporary approach to Nepali ingredients in Basuki Ghar, a handsome brick house in Bhaktapur. The tasting menu changes with the seasons and the kitchen’s research, drawing on produce such as wild mushrooms, mountain dairy and rice from Jumla. An open wood-fired grill anchors part of the cooking. Make this the main event of an evening in the old city, leaving ample time to find the entrance through its narrow lanes.
