Momos migrated from Tibet and became Nepal’s national comfort food — steamed, fried, or swimming in jhol soup.
What to order
Try kothe (pan-fried bottoms), open-top molmo, and buff (water buffalo) fillings for authentic spice.
Neighborhoods
Explore Patan alleys for family kitchens; Thamel has reliable late-night steamers — always ask for freshly made batches.
