Welcome to another episode of the Welcome to Blackheath & Greenwich Community Channel, where we showcase the incredible people and businesses that make this corner of London so special.

In this episode, we visit The Everest Inn, an award-winning Nepalese and Indian cuisine restaurant that's been at the heart of Blackheath Village for over 20 years. Facing directly onto the Heath with stunning views, The Everest Inn has become a local institution known for its hospitality, multi-award-winning food, and its role within both the local and Nepalese communities.

Executive Chef Shanker Pandey, winner of Chef of the Year, demonstrates how to make their signature vegetable momos (dumplings) and the famous tomato achaar chutney seasoned with authentic Timur pepper from the Himalayas.

Owners Yadav and Rashmi Rai share how the Everest Inn began, how they've catered for No. 10 Downing Street and the Nepalese Embassy, and how they continue to support charities both locally and in Nepal.
