Owners Pushpa and Robinson Gupta tell me that the cheese is organic and is common in Nepalese food. Pushpa is the person who introduced me to lamb momos and for that I will always be grateful. They have become one of the comfort foods I crave from time to time.
Popular Nepalese meals served here offer grilled boneless chicken (kukhura ko sekuwa) or lamb (khasi ko sekuwa) with rice or bread, or a Nepali khana set which includes curried lamb/chicken/beef, and spicy sauteed vegetables served with rice.
The curried lamb in a mildly spiced dark brown sauce is tender, flavorful and delicious with the rice.
The favorite is the grilled boneless chicken, seasoned with Nepalese spices including cumin, tumeric, garlic, ginger and chilies, and grilled until tender and juicy.
With a small outdoor seating area right by the Mui Wo ferry pier, and its extensive menu of spicy and non-spicy dishes, the Deer Horn is a family-friendly restaurant as well as a good place to hang out after a hike on Lantau.
