"Like the taco momos at Momo Crave, the dishes at While in Kathmandu in Ridgewood are, for the most part, fusion-y. You’ll find fish and chips with masala fries, and jerk-style chicken choila. But we also like the jhol momos served in a thick broth, or a khaja set, with puffed rice, grilled eggs, and chicken prepared a few different ways. The cash-only spot is a neighborhood staple where most things cost less than $25, so keep it in mind for a very chill, highly satisfying meal. And if it’s nice out, eat in the backyard." - willa moore, sonal shah, bryan kim
