Crunchy Hot Dogs at MadMunch21

Are you a fan of Korean hotdogs? Hungry but do not want to spend much? Head on over the MadMunch21 for lunch. Introducing Korean corndogs in Nepal, this stick food is different from the average sausage sticks you get out on the streets. It's crunchy, it's yummy, it's different, and it's fulfilling.

Korean street foods are just as popular as their Kpop bands, their movies, or their dramas. And to be honest, they are a bit ahead when it comes to street food with the food not only being unique and aesthetic but equally delicious to munch on. In many instances, they’ve taken the average food and brought it to a whole other level. You’ll find that pancakes are no new thing, a popular breakfast food even. But the Koreans take a step further making pancakes airy, light, and cake-like with cream and fresh fruit and various toppings. And same is with the corndogs which actually originated in the US. It was a different take on hotdogs with the hotdogs being coated in cornmeal and easier to eat and munch on. But when corndogs adapted to Korea, they gave it their own twist adding cheese to corndogs and fries to the exterior. The results? A crunchiness and cheese pull you will rarely get in the average corndog.

Of course, I had seen corndogs and Korean hotdogs taking the internet by storm at one point or another. But I was rather excited when they happened to be available in Nepal. And why wouldn’t I be? I had tried the ones in Fryday’s and they were good. But hearing all this commotion about Madmunch and seeing all these stories urged me to go there. It’s not that far, in the UWTC building in Tripureshwor, they provide you an array of options from classic corndogs to fries corndogs, half and half, full cheese corndog. The cheese pull is immense, the corndogs crispy and these dogs are huge. I was not expecting that size. You will be full with one dog. And for that size, the rate seems to be justified. Yes, these Korean hotdogs are better than the corndogs available at Fryday’s. Go on a lunch date with your friends to Madmunch21. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

The Leaving vs The Left Behind

I still remember, I was standing near the entrance looking out at the garden. I was at my best friend’s home and she had gone to get her ever famous chips chilly for me. I was to leave for Bangalore again, in a couple of days. While I waited, I looked out at the garden and this thought came into my head. “Who is it harder for? The one leaving or the ones left behind?” Is it going to be harder for me in a new place readjusting and exploring, or my best friend here, who will me miss me? Is it harder for a person to settle in a completely new place with a completely new lifestyle and have to find new people or for a person to see the same old places, the same old alleys and reminiscent the good times they had with their friend who are not around at the moment? It was a random thought that filled my mind a couple of minutes and then I got over it. Some time after resettling here in Bangalore, my best friend sent me a reel. The reel was about 2 close friends who used to lived ...

Most Asked Question

Coming back home after one year has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me the past month. Getting to see everyone again, embracing family and friends, working on an office desk again, walking through same old alleys and of course, devouring delicious food that I so dearly missed. I am actually almost through the food list that I have been saving. But the people have been asking me the same question a lot: do you like it here in Nepal or in Bangalore? And the answer has always been the same for me: I like it wherever I am. Kathmandu is home, it is warm, and it is where family is. Bangalore is a different vibe and freedom and excitement. Kathmandu is a different fun and Bangalore is different fun, which is why I live in the moment and enjoy where I am. My mother always tells me: “ La wani tha nya wani ma” in Nepal Bhasa meaning “ the fish must go where the water goes”. The meaning while very basic is also very deep. If the fish does not flow with the water, it cannot survive. I...
