Bombay To Kathmandu Review - Highland - Austin - The Infatuation
"Bombay To Kathmandu is located in a fairly empty strip mall next to an old movie theater in Highland, and it’s a decent option for Indian and Nepali food in the area. But whenever this spot made its hypothetical journey from India to Nepal, it detoured in Italy because besides South Indian curries and Himalayan dishes, they also have pizzas on the menu. Skip those and focus on the momos and house special curries. That’s what this place does best, but we’ve also had some solid biryani and tandoori chicken here as well. Despite the relatively quiet setting, it can get a little lively inside. Stop by to grab a light bite and a cheap drink after catching whatever superhero movies came out this week.

And the momos are fried nicely, with crispy edges and soft, tender chicken filling. photo credit: Nicolai McCrary House Special Lamb Curry The house special curries—chicken, lamb, or goat—are all solid options with generous servings of meat, and a tasty curry that goes well with some garlic naan. photo credit: Nicolai McCrary Chicken Tikka Masala Pizza This feels like one step up from a frozen pizza, swapping the tomato sauce for tikka masala gravy and adding in a few pieces of chicken. You won’t be mad that you ordered this, but you’ll also forget about it the moment you step out the front door." - Nicolai McCrary
