The El Mediterraneo restaurant and tapas bar at Jhamsikhel, Lalitpur has been in operation since 2012 and claims to be the first Spanish restaurant in Kathmandu, and probably the only one thus far. The quaint little premise of the El Mediterraneo is right on the main road from Pulchowk to Sanepa and is a hub for Spanish food lovers, or anyone who wants to try new cuisines. The normal tapas menu at El Mediterraneo features Gazpacho, Patata Brava, Bomba Patata, Solomillo a la plancha and other Spanish delicacies while the main course has a wide range of pastas and rice dishes. (Don’t get intimidated by the names though, the menu at El Mediterraneo does have English translations and details of all the food items it serves.)
