"Unlike the other restaurants on this map, Trident isn’t Nepali or Tibetan; it’s a bookstore and cafe serving a sizable American diner-style menu. But vegetarian momos have been periodically offered since way back in 1992, introduced by employee Tsering Wangdi, who became known as the “Momo Man.” They returned to the menu in 2021 when another Tibetan chef joined the kitchen staff. The restaurant’s new “Momo Gal” is using Wangdi’s original recipe. When available, Trident’s momos are served steamed or fried with soy sauce and peanut sauce." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
