I've mentioned Himali, the Nepalese restaurant I'm fond of in Barcelona. Well, we stopped in early on into our stay and arrived at noon, expecting them to be open, when in fact they opened at 1pm. They seated us anyway, which was very kind of the owner, and he quickly whipped up soups, a chicken and a lamb dish. They were, unfortunately, not up to snuff with what we've come to expect of the place. Everything seemed a bit under seasoned and bland. Our muglinco kukhura chicken was not creamy enough, and actually it was on the runny side. I'm not ready to dock them points or knock them off my list permanently, as I'm not sure the owner is the usual one that does the cooking - I remember his wife behind the counter, and either she hadn't arrived yet or had the day off. She very well might be the better cook, and if this is what his food normally tastes like, he might consider closing altogether when she's unable to come in.
