The Chimney
At the time when the longest standing restaurant of its quality was created, the path to The Chimney was just a series of dirt lanes winding between stone houses in the jewel of the medieval Kathmandu Valley. In a fairytale land of not so long ago, the infamous Boris Lissanevitch established The Chimney. Boris' name alone conjures up legends of his unheeded extravagance and enigmatic adventures; famed Russian ballet dancer, entrepreneur, and entertainer of royalty, the tradition of the unprecedented Boris and his Chimney Restaurant continues to this day.

By night, the handcrafted, open, copper-shafted fireplace blazes and the vaulted ceilings of The Chimney are illuminated with the shadows of myths as tall as Everest. Boris' original recipes live on as his famous Borstch is served as well as the Smoked Bekti, Chicken a la Kiev, and the flaming baked Alaska Sagarmatha.

Traditional favorites are honored while an inspired international menu at The Chimney achieves distinction of its own. With a palette of fresh ingredients, is refined with masterful innovation. Savor Rack of Lamb with an Eggplant and Sesame Ragout and relish the piquant Tartare of Smoked Salmon with Wasabi, but be warned, new creations are always coming out to tempt you.

There is something about the dining room centered around the warm glow, or the history, or the savory food, a night in The Chimney, whether an intimate dinner for two or a festive gathering of friends becomes a story to be told again and again.

The Piano Lounge
Aside the lobby, the casual Piano Lounge Bar is the perfect place to meet friends and relax. Enjoy an international selection of beverages and exotic cocktails in the light garden front lounge.

* menstrual problems

* asthmatic symptoms
* sports injuries
* depression
* Swedish Massage
* Swedish massage is a classic approach to massage. The strokes are continuous and fast at
* times. Pressure is moderate. Strokes are elongated and also include kneading and cupping motions.

When you climb on the table for a traditional feel-good rubdown, the technique is most likely to be Swedish massage. This is the primary technique taught in massage schools and is the most popular form of bodywork practiced in the West. Swedish massage employs soft strokes on the more delicate and bony structures of the body, such as the face, hands and feet, and stronger strokes over thickly muscled areas that retain stress, such as the neck and shoulders. The careful attention to the amount of pressure makes Swedish massage great for relaxation.
