Jheer restaurant a review

This is a part of 'project 110, going back and re-filling', writing is happening 8ish months after the date.

There's a chain of sekuwa restaurants in Kathmandu (and possibly in the mofasal) called Jheer whose major selling point is decent grilled and fried meat, a reasonably family-friendly environment, and oh, beer sold at maximum retail price, with no markup over that. The third point is their strongest suit, but let's move on.

Actually, let's hold the review here and talk about Crunchy Chicken and Burger house, where I was a regular in 2017, the original one in the oraalo past New Baneshwar. It was my favourite spot because the stick food was cheap, and the drinks were sold at MRP. Then they got big, the food got very expensive, the drinks weren't sold at MRP anymore, and finally the quality of food went down. Now it's a shittier version of...how Americans feels about McD, but not so respected, and way way pricey. A kind of place one would go to if one was stuck in the world of 2018. There were 300 of them across the country at one point, wouldn't be surprised if they're decreasing in number.

Regardless. Jheer. It's not a good place for vegetarians, as the only items one can find here are chatpatey, roasted garlic and boiled potatoes. Those are the only items I've had there, but I'm told on good authority the food is pretty good, the service is decent, specially the one in mid-Baneshwar, and for a 'homely' environment, which is not available in such restaurants, this brings a decent amount of heat. This is where couples might go on evening dates, or friends to hang out, or families out with their kids.

Eight out of ten stars.
