If you have asthma, the air could affect you. Having a food allergy would be hard here because you can never be too sure. It would depend on what you are allergic to. - Aug 2022


Don't come. Or resign yourself to never going out to eat. Nepali's don't understand allergies at all. I thought it would be ok if I explained my son's allergy in Nepali and had a card in Nepali, nope! - Aug 2019
