Momo Cafe - pork dumplings

I'm not a fan of pan-Asian restaurants but Momo was friendly and quirky. The laksa was yummy…read morealthough could have used slightly more kick and could have benefitted from a better bowl. Definitely a likeable local joint.

I just stumbled into this place on my last day in town. I wish I'd discovered it sooner... I…read morewould've gone back multiple times! This little mom 'n' pop restaurant serves Japanese (sushi and sashimi), Chinese (dumplings), and Malaysian cuisine (Laksa, etc.). I asked and the chef is apparently ethnically Chinese, but grew up partly in Japan and spent 15 years in the restaurant industry there. My server (the chef's sister-in-law and I'm guessing also a/the proprietor) spoke fluent Mandarin, and when I revealed that I spoke Mandarin as well, she immediately recommended the pork dumplings. (At first she had simply said that everything was good.) The pork dumplings were indeed good. Very similar to what I enjoyed in northern China. Just be aware, that while advertised as plain dumplings, they came out pan-fried on the bottom, like pot-stickers. I tried the salmon & tuna sashimi, which was very fresh, soft, and delicious. Finally, I tried the laksa with udon noodles. They warned me that it would be a little bit spicy. I said a little spicy to medium spicy is ok... It came out with almost no heat. I finished the whole bowl and my lips barely tingled. I'm from southern California, so maybe I'm used to spicier things and their spice levels have been adjusted for the local palate. I'd say this was the only somewhat disappointing dish I tried, but it was still good. Maybe next time I'd just ask for it hotter or with hot sauce on the side. And I got the goji berry tea, which was served with rock sugar. I didn't ask if other sweetener options were available, but if you require others you might want to come prepared. They do have some vegetarian options. I was tempted by one of their salads, but that will have to wait until my next visit. As other commenters have mentioned, the decor is kitschy and cozy, and I might even add entertaining. There was a knit art installation filling the entire main window. The proprietor was delightful. Eavesdropped kitchen banter was happy, adding to the cozy atmosphere. If I lived in Staines, I would come here all the time. [By the way, you might think the place is named after the book 'Momo' by Michael Ende (author of The Neverending Story), of which there are copies in several languages on one of their bookshelves. But I asked and it's not. It's just a word that's easy to remember and pronounce and has positive or neutral meanings in several Asian languages.]

I go here at least once a week with my friends and my only complaint is that I wish it was open later (closes at 5pm) so we could enjoy their food even more!!!

Great café in a quaint village. The staff was really friendly and food was delicious! They know how…read moreto do a classic English breakfast so we were not disappointed with our first meal in England this trip. The menu has a ton of options and you can pick and choose your combinations for breakfast which was awesome! Great prices but cash only. My boyfriend and I were meeting my sister here after we took a red eye landing at Heathrow. We were on our way to Dorset and so it was a great meeting spot to get picked up and get a little brekkie in after the flight. The early Saturday morning crowd had a local vibe but it started to fill up more on Saturday morning.
