Why Jain food in Nepal needs a specialist
Nepal is largely vegetarian-friendly, but mountain dal-bhat and momos commonly use onion, garlic and sometimes egg. Kanaiya arranges pure Jain dal-bhat, theplas and Gujarati food in Kathmandu and Pokhara, ideal for the many devotees combining Pashupatinath and Muktinath darshan with strictly satvik Jain meals.
