Overlooked by many tourists, the Organic Café & Salad Bar is, by far, my favorite Thamel breakfast joint. Not only is everything organic, but they also make all their own breads, so the place smell like mamma’s kitchen. You can ignore some of the breads but be absolutely sure to order the buckwheat bread. I love the Regular Set Breakfast. The way I order, it comes with two papusa-like rounds of buckwheat bread, one topped with brilliant scrambled eggs and the other served with butter and jam or honey; all served with a side of garlic, onion, capsicum potatoes, a grilled roma tomato, yogurt or salad, and coffee or tea. For 190 Nepali rupees (or 175 if you and a friend order the same breakfast) this healthy tasty morning meal is a must do. The Fruit Crepes and Banana Pancake are also scrumptious! The gracious waitstaff are well deserving of a nice tip, especially since the, seemingly standard, 23% doesn’t pad you bill here.
