Trying Nepalese cuisine at The Gurkhas Restaurant

[Ad- gifted experience] I do not think I have ever had Nepalese cuisine before, so when Dann and I were invited to try some of the menu at The Gurkhas Restaurant, we both were pretty excited to try something so new to us! The Gurkhas was founded by Shrabaneswor Rai, who is Nepal born and is also the co founder of a few different restaurants in Islington. The head chef, himself, and his father-in-law were all inspired by the heritage of the Himalayas to create their menu.

Catit PIXI Smart Meal Feeder is able to feed on a timer

If you follow me on social media, you will know that Dann and I are a big fans of day trips and weekends away. Though we do have a lovely pet sitter who does check on and feed our pets whenever we are away for large amounts of time, there are times when we are just away for the evening, getting home super late. Pancake is not a huge fan of being fed late and does get very grumpy when his special, wet food dinner is delayed, so we decided to try out the Catit PIXI Smart Meal Feeder. We do have dry food out for grazing, generally, but feed all three of our cats wet food at the same time each day.
