Mc-LLo´s restaurant is a Mcleod Ganj institution. Situated above the bus station, it provides high-quality Indian, Chinese and European cuisine in comparatively salubrious surroundings. During one busy lunchtime, sitting on the ground floor next to the stairwell, my chair is regularly kicked by people heading up. On the wall above is a large signed portrait of Pierce Brosnan sitting in front of a pizza. After about 10 minutes, another space becomes available and I am very keen to move. The waiter comes over surprised at our shift in tables. I have apparently just moved out of Mr Brosnan´s favourite place he reliably informs me.
The Dalai Lama attracts a lot of media attention wherever he goes and has done much to make Buddhism “fashionable” in The West. Richard Geer is another regular HHDL fan and visitor to Mcleod Ganj. Must get an autograph for my mum! Madonna, Annie Lennox, Philip Glass, Jet Li and Goldie Hawn have also made the trip to Mcleod Ganj.
