MICHAEL BRIGHT is a musician and sometime trekker from Melbourne who has at one time or another eaten everything on the UTSE menu and who once washed down 19 Momos along with his main meal with a couple of bottles of Nepalese Beer. He is essentially a glutton, who loves the UTSE hotel. Here are plenty of simple, concise but delicious recipes that can be easily made at home.

There is also a section on breakfast and hot beverages.
