"Fairmount's Nepali Momo House is one of the best places to eat momos or anything in town. And when you're there, you're going to want the Himalayan shrimp chili momo. These baby-shrimp stuffed momos come in a tomato sauce that blends peppery ghost chilis, Szechuan peppercorns, and honey to balance out all of the heat. After reading that, you’ll think, well, that’s a lot of spice. But have no fear; the spice level is more likely to have you grabbing for a mango lassi than an extinguisher." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"Philly has fewer places to get momo than Dollar Dog nights, but this isn’t our favorite place by default. It’s because these crisp-edged, doughy pouches are packed with the perfect combination of flavor and spice. The Spring Garden corner spot has a few tables for ordering the Himalayan veggie chili “hotter than hot,” while the rest is counter space for ordering takeout. It has a massive lineup of momo—we’re talking over 30—including fantastic vegetarian options. The must haves are the tandoori (either shrimp or chicken), which are smoky and delicious. Whether you walk-in for a casual dinner with friends or take a few to go, you’ll be muttering "momo" in your sleep by tomorrow." - candis mclean

"Philly has fewer places to get momo than Dollar Dog nights, but this isn’t our favorite place by default. It’s because these crisp-edged, doughy pouches are packed with the perfect combination of flavor and spice. The Spring Garden corner spot has six large tables for ordering the Himalayan veggie chili “hotter than hot,” while the rest is counter space for ordering takeout. It has a massive lineup of momo—we’re talking over 30—including fantastic vegetarian options. The must haves are the tandoori (either shrimp or chicken), which are smoky and delicious.
