Welcome!
We have named our restaurant ‘Fishtail’ after a very sacred mountain in the Annapurna region of Nepal. It is a beautiful snow caped mountain and the top looks a bit like a fish tail, and is revered by the local population as particularly sacred to the god Shiva and is off limits to climbing.
