I haven't tried the momo here, and I'm a little afraid to after trying the chow mein which I…read moreunfortunately can't recommend. It was a bit bland. It would be a good choice for kids who are picky eaters though and just want some noodles. I've seen the momo and it looks great. People seem to like it a lot too, so I'll order that next time I'm willing to try something new. I've always loved momo, just haven't had it from this particular cart and the last several times I tried a new food cart, it didn't go very well.. But the staff are super nice so I want to support their business if possible. Just a heads up if you have a sensitive stomach or are sensitive to fat content - if you get their chai tea with coconut milk, they don't use the kind meant for drinking like you get from a cafe (the kind of coconut milk in a carton). They use canned coconut milk, like you use for cooking, curries, etc., This does make for a creamier and more coconutty drink, but it overwhelmed the chai flavour and gave me a stomach ache most likely due to the high fat content. I'm just not used to drinking 24g fat in one sitting (believe me if I could, I would!). If I'd known they were using canned coconut milk for the dairy alternative, I don't think I would have ordered it. I'm sure the regular chai tea with dairy milk is delicious though, as what I could get out of the spice flavour seemed tasty. I'll update my review next time.

Tender, melt in your mouth with yummy BBQ sauce + it's in a Banh mi so you get the crispy texture of the fresh baked bread and pickled veggies = perfection! I appreciate fusion food when it's done right! The BBQ pork was also yummy. This one was a more traditional Banh mi flavor and we brought our own hoisin sauce to complement the flavors. What I really like about this place is they have more than just Banh mi. They have momo!! These are Nepali dumplings which are either steamed or pan fried and you can get them loaded with spicy chili sauce and peppers and onions or with other sauces. We got the spicy ones as an add on to the Banh mi. They gave me a small container of spicier sauce that was delicious when used sparingly. Hubby got spring rolls and a soda for a small ad on combo price. Those were freshly fried to perfection and tasty as well. We thought we'd have leftovers but everything was so tasty we ate most of it while talking with the owner who is a really nice guy. Writing this has me craving a return trip!

The banh mis, however, weren't our favorite. I opted for the braised pork belly and my husband had the lemongrass chicken.
