Beauty In My Backyard - Patan

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: center;"> I have always lived on Lalitpur side of Kathmandu and Patan was like my own backyard. We use to visit Patan every now and then, when we were kids. But as I grew up I never gave Patan the attention, and took it for granted for always being there. I have now come to realized how much I was missing out on while taking Patan for granted as now I am over whelmed with the beauty in the little ally ways, old vintage shops, houses and familiar looking faces. </div> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0EaWzygnXejoBLmwWJ2lPBTjZGTtH8Ja-80OkLx5c-_-1_ATeOs8tSf1ybPXSdds0cv3XrQnbN9GwGnVQc0beRbVsADKjCo8tflXWjQ32_xHaNRJA8wJQ_1_zxcatao1EalZreDyl3Kc/s1600/IMG_0160.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0EaWzygnXejoBLmwWJ2lPBTjZGTtH8Ja-80OkLx5c-_-1_ATeOs8tSf1ybPXSdds0cv3XrQnbN9GwGnVQc0beRbVsADKjCo8tflXWjQ32_xHaNRJA8wJQ_1_zxcatao1EalZreDyl3Kc/s640/IMG_0160.jpg" width="900" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Something old</td></tr> </tbody></table> <div style="text-align: center;"> There seems to be so much more that can be explored and found in those narrow crowded ally way or the dark doorways and trust me there are probably hundred of them around Patan.

Watching - Scarlet Heart Ryeo

For me it all started with friends in high school and the love just really never died, ever. I have always enjoyed the variety of genre Korean Movies/Drama had.

Barbecue - Nepali Style

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: center;"> I think most people in Kathmandu and Nepal believe in having a pre Dashian celebration, just to get immersed into the feels of Dashain. One of the most popular idea for a get together among Nepalese is, the old tradition of barbecue. Specially the Dahsian barbecue is accompanyed by libations and of course game of cards, nothing says Dashain and Tihar like a game of cards and delicious food.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The hand at task for a barbecue is, the preparation -the marination of the meat, the shopping, the cleaning of the grill, the making the spicy sauce (aachar) and the of course the process of over eating.</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> The key to any successful barbecue is the marination of the meats. I have my personal favorite marinade that consists of garlic, ginger, soya sauce, salt, cumin powder, chilli powder and not to forget some whiskey or brandy or rum! </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzUMGjRheRLzAm1NdQv_TkbHgwTUuLYrShf3a3S8_PQTXLJFEdyilgQn11WqZiZedDn2ZY_KzvHWuQ6S4LndjOiozctMU34J3yZQ5kFfkmWB8jibCpLc984GPG8x5uz1yfrxM9JwhCHPI/s1600/_MG_3814.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzUMGjRheRLzAm1NdQv_TkbHgwTUuLYrShf3a3S8_PQTXLJFEdyilgQn11WqZiZedDn2ZY_KzvHWuQ6S4LndjOiozctMU34J3yZQ5kFfkmWB8jibCpLc984GPG8x5uz1yfrxM9JwhCHPI/s640/_MG_3814.jpg" width="900" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">For the Love of Pork </td></tr> </tbody></table> <div style="text-align: center;"> The western way of barbecue is the electric grill but in Nepal we have the Nepalese way of doing it, we use brickets instead.
