Rum Doodles is quite an institution in Nepal and anyone who's anyone, has been there. This includes virtually all Everest summiteers who finish their expedition with a trip to Rum Doodles, sign the special wooden Everest summiteers board, and get free food at the restaurant for life.
And the food is good, hearty food, fit for mountaineers. Just look at the size of our veggie burger! And the chips were good too.
The other unique thing about Rum Doodles is all the footprint cutouts which hang from the ceilings, walls and just about every available space. They tell the story of lots of previous groups' trip of a lifetime and have been collected over 20 years.
Naturally our trekking group wanted to complete one and, as we were present in Rum Doodles on Halloween night, it seemed only appropriate that ours should have a Halloween theme. We can't claim credit for the idea to turn a Himalayan peak into a witch's hat, but we do think it was inspired. Here is the finished result which we helped to draw. Hope you like it.
We also hope that any of our readers who visit Kathamndu and Rum Doodles in the months and years to come, will keep a look out for our footprint and let us know if they see it.
And so our wonderful trip to Nepal draws to a close. We hope you've enjoyed reading as much as we've enjoyed the writing.
Lots of love George & Yorkie xxx

A very fitting end to your trip. Hope you left a bear paw print! Panda was glad to see a cat had been included too.
