The community eagerly anticipates your ranking and exclaims, "Hurrah!" if you enjoy their goods. Sit under a thousand dazzling stars and enjoy the bonfire to the sound of crickets chirping, frogs croaking, and twinkling fireflies dancing around. Sit by the bonfire and sip 'YU,' a locally produced rice wine. The live open sky kitchen, complete with a wood fire, is ready to serve you. Today's dinner includes rice, roast (Chicken/Pork or Fish fry), curry of choice (Chicken/Pork/Duck), lentils (daal), and champhut (boil vegetable).
