First time trying Momo — completely converted
I had never tried Momo before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The simply seasoned and clean taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. timur Sichuan pepper is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before.
The a Sherpa kitchen in the mountains setting added something to the experience — this kind of food makes sense in that environment. dal bhat power for 24 hours is a trekking mantra reflecting how central the dish is to Nepali daily life. My server recommended tongba millet beer alongside and it was exactly right. I've been telling everyone to try Momo. Outstanding first encounter.
