Momo exceeded every expectation
I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Momo made with real commitment to buckwheat and technique. The subtly numbing from timur result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.
Newari cuisine of the Kathmandu Valley is a distinct and sophisticated subcategory. The a Sherpa kitchen in the mountains was exactly right for this kind of eating. butter tea was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
