Kendo UI Grid - MVC - Looping collection of entity (view model) on ClientRowTemplate

Is it possible to create a clientrowtemplate with an entity model that includes a complex type of list to display some fields? I've created a server side rowtemplate but when I switch ajax on datasource, it doesn't work. I think it's expected. But how to create a complex template to display collections with ajax as a custom row template on MVC?

For clean code, seperate the delegate to any other code block. Notice the ToString() at the end of the code to get result as string, not as HelperResult.

@{
    Func<Grid<MyModel>, string> clientRowTemplate = @<div class="order-info">
        <div class="order-info-items cell">
        # if (data.OrderItemList) { #
            # for (var i in data.OrderItemList) { #
                # if (data.OrderItemList[i].ID) { #
                    <img src="#= data.OrderItemList[i].ImageUrl #" alt="#= data.OrderItemList[i].ItemName #" width="100" height="100" />
                # } #
            # } #
        # } #
        </div>
    </div>.ToString();
}

Then pass it as parameter to ClientRowTemplate method:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)
    .Name("grd")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        /*columns*/
    })
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .Read(read => read.Action("Orders_Read", "Home"))
    )
    .ClientRowTemplate(clientRowTemplate)

Hope it helps.
