It wrapped some sort of tofu and our group agreed that this was a favorite.

Nepalese / Bhutan / Tibetan momo options are so abundant in Jackson Heights that sometimes it's…read morehard to know where to start. An easy choice and convenient to the train station is A&G Himalayan Fresh Food (which recently changed things up by *also* calling itself "Gang Chen Bodkyi Momo"), a cart that sits in a quiet part (aka dead zone) of the busiest intersection in all of Jackson Heights at 73rd & Queens Blvd. If it wasn't already obvious, momos are the item to get. On this cart they're labeled as "dumplings" but they have both veggie and meat versions. For a $5, one will get 8 of their steamed dumplings which usually come piping hot, all lined up in a styrofoam container and steaming into the air. Most of the time, the momos are plump, juicy, and go well with any of the condiments in the window. Be careful though, like Chinese soup dumplings, they can easily burn the roof of anyone's mouth or tongue from their pockets of hot soup. They also serve what they call bread, but it's more of a stuffed flatbread. At $8 for a large, it's easily the most expensive thing on the menu but for things like their potato curry ($3) it works well as a vehicle for soaking up the broth / juice. This also works well for any momo spillage as well and its condiments. There is also water / tea availble for a $1 each. There are also frozen momos available at $50 a sack and frozen quantities of bread as well. Surprisingly delivery is an option, just call 917-362-8082 or 212-920-0881 and be prepared to speak very slowly.

I stopped by this food cart several years ago as part of a yelp Momo crawl event, and recently I…read morehad a chance to try out their sweet bread named "Bally". I believe this is a unleavened bread, as it was dense, weighty, and also a little crumbly texture-wise. This was pretty much confirmed when cutting a slice, as the profile showed an interior nearly devoid of air pocket crevices. The above comments aren't necessarily negatives but just observations. Despite the moniker the bread's sweetness level was tame, and the sweetness I tasted was not an unduly artificial taste, but more comparable to a honey flavor. It was a nice flavor though. Overall this was a pretty ordinary bread, IMO leaving it to be eaten as a side dish or (if eaten by itself) to be treated with additions like butter or some sort of fruit spread to impart more flavor.

Nepali Momo Cafe has some solid momos but to be completely honest they're not the best that I've…read morehad (that will always be the momos from Lhasa Snack Cafe for me). Their jhol Mama's are not bad though and definitely hit the spot on a cold, rainy day albeit they're way chewier than they should be to me. However, there are just many better options. In my honest opinion hence I gave them three stars versus four stars. Jackson Heights has no dearth of Momo's and various other cuisines so I would recommend other places versus this one.

Picked up some steamed beef momos to go, food took 15 minutes to be ready, fresh and piping hot. The staff is very friendly and invited me to take a seat downstairs while waiting for the food to be prepped. They give a couple sauces, an orange and a green one, both tasty, the green one is spicier. The flavor of the beef has a bit of curry, there were a few pieces of chewier parts in the filling, though for the price the quality for the serving size can't be beat. I'm planning to diversify and try a few different items next time! Cash only, bathroom is available.

Granted, I have not been to Nepal or Tibet so my experience with Himalayan food is limited to what I can get here in NYC, but Jackson Heights has no shortage of this cuisine, and all I can say is as far as momos on their own go, unaccompanied by anything but a flavorful hot sauce and a subtly tart, cooling yogurt sauce, this is the best. Plain and simple. I had the beef and everything was delicious. I have not had beef cooked the way it was cooked here before. The mixture, the texture, the unique flavor of the juices all wrapped up in a tasty package, it's a perfect lunch. And 8 for $8. Quite the deal in this economy.

I'm thrilled to report that the chive momos are still stellar, especially when paired with the incredible dry chili oil afforded to each table. Keep in mind these Tibetan style momos are for momo purists. If you're looking for varieties in the form of chili momos or sandeko momos, I'd recommend some of the excellent Nepalese options in the area like Mo:mo Crave or Kasthamandap. But for pure chili oil and chive momo bliss, this is your spot.

I had momo before around Jackson heights and the smell was not there. Was a turn off to be honest. Also The place looked kinda dirty in my opinion and I didn't trust the sauce they gave out based on my gut feeling after having explosive diarrhea years ago from eating samosas with dipping sauce at an Indian spot that looked similar. Also read a review of someone saying they gave expired meat. The flavor was good though but definitely nowhere near the ones I had in the past. The momo I had in the past were very juicy and rounder and tasted very rich. These just tasted like Chinese dumplings at any take out spot.

At the recommendation of the server, we had the pan fried, which is a combo of steamed/fried. We had the chicken, the beef, and the veggie. All were super savory and delish. Well seasoned and flavorful. Service was kind and attentive. Prices reasonable. We got 24 momos (eight per serving) for around 45 dollars. They also offer fried noodles, thenthuk, laphing, tofu, veggies, pork, stir-fry, and a number of other Tibetan offerings.

With most of the restaurants in the area looking similar or the other ones being closed at this time we decided to give this a shot. We ordered fried rice, chicken momo's and vegetable momos.

I probably would not visit this restaurant again as there are a lot of restaurants nearby for me to try.

However, I wanted to have something I'd never had before. The thali is a served on a round metal plate and comes with a bunch of little portions of various items. The one here consisted of: dal (a lentil stew), achaar (pickles), khursani (fresh chili peppers), nibua (lime), saag (mustard greens), a couple slices of cucumber, some curried potatoes, a yogurt chutney, stewed beans, and the chicken. In the midlde is a generous portion of bhat (rice). It was nice to sample a few different things, but anyone who has eaten South Asian food before will find it all familiar. The food is completely fresh either. The seating area is on the second floor, but I could still heard them downstairs microwaving all the various things for me. Perhaps the momos are better here?
