Charali isn't much of a town, it is a crossroads town of the Chandragadhi-Ilam route on the Mahendra Highway, just 8 km from Kakarbhitta, the Indian border crossing. Mandro serves good food in clean surroundings, catering both for locals as well as Nepali travellers. Foreigners are far and few between here, but their menu is also given in English text. If you for some reason aren't able to make it to Kakarbhitta for the night, condsider staying and eating here. As many travellers are hill people, you will also find good hill food, tea, beer etc. You won't be at loss. I have eaten here many times before setting out for Ilam, never disappointed.
They can assist you with ticketing, jeep reservation, hotel bookings etc. also, their travel agency next door.
Their facilities are vastly upgraded over the years, and now cater for a larger influx of travellers. Still, you do not get the bus crowds here, because it is located a bit up the road from the East-West Highway.
Favorite Dish: Momos are a hit as always, and Mandro is known for them.

If you lost your flight or came too early, or have business to do in Chandraghardi/Bhadrapur, then the Hotel Friendship Restaurant and Bar is the best place in the town of Chandragadhi. They cook up decent meals for a reasonable price. Ask what is easy and fast before you order, otherwise they may have to go out and catch fish and fowl for you and start with the live raw material. They do decent mutton and chicken curries, and the beer and soft drinks are cold. Better eat a full meal here if you have the time rather than at the snacks eateries at the Bhadrapur airport.
Favorite Dish: Good chicken daal bhat. Good noodle dishes.

Jhapa, the southeasternmost district of Nepal

Jhapa is in some ways the most exotic place in Nepal. Three countries meet up here; on two sides of Jhapa is India, and a narrow corridor of India separates Nepal and Bangladesh, and Bhutan isn't far...
