I wish I visited this place sooner. Momo has been popular in Toronto for quite some time, esp around the Parkdale area, but I did not have a chance to try it until recently, as my work and home are on the east side. But I recently had my first experience with Momo in Toronto and loved it!
Then I found Momo Mantra near my home in Durham! Actually, there are a few Momo places in the Durham region - but this place sounded very authentic based on several online reviews of their food and their business styles, etc. Excited to find it here!
I ordered "Mixed Momos" which had 4 Chicken Momos, 4 Veggie, and 2 Sha-Bhaglep (Tibetan-style beef patties). It is perfect for a person like me who is new to the momo world - a little bit of different items!
I love their food. The momos are juicy, and delicious with a nice spicy kick! The wrapper has a nice and chewy homemade texture. I esp liked the chicken momo!
Sha-Bhaglep was mind-blowing. I got a burst of rich and intensively flavored meat and broth into every bite of it.
No frill decor but no problem for me as I choose foods based more on taste than the decor. Also, the service was great and pleasant!
Will come back very soon for sure!!!! read more
