New Momo Place in Town : Mitho Momo



Okay, so here’s the catch. I was thinking I’d write about the best places for momo in Kathmandu, I was almost set on writing it too, making a list, looking up places and everything. And then, I thought, “Do I really want to create a list of momo places and take the risk of not including places I might not know but are very popular?” Obviously, people prefer different tastes, and more when it comes to momos: the national favorite. Because let’s face it, we could have momos for breakfast, lunch and dinner, if only we could. We’d never get sick of momos; who are we kidding? So, instead of making a list of the best momo places; I’m pretty sure you’ve tried most of them anyway momo maniacs, why not introduce people to a new momo place?

Mitho Momo has recently opened in Naya Bazar street right beside Sasa Banquet. And the name mitho justifies it. Within only a few months of its opening, it has managed to attract flocks of people from all around. They are only adding to their menu and the prices are so reasonable, you won’t even have to burn a hole in your pocket. The place is no fancy momo plate, no. I’d say it’s a perfect blend of local, but not really. It has all the local flavors with a nice, clean place. The flavors are simple, but oh, do they hit the spot! The achar here will keep you wanting for more.
They have four varieties when it comes to momos: Veg momo

Chicken momo
Buff momo

Pork momo
And this is not all there is to mitho momo. They recently added buff keema noodles and milkshakes.

If you’re willing to try something new, go for the keema hotdog. Sounds interesting, right? 
It’s a great place to go for lunch breaks, or catch up with your friends.
The good news is people are liking mitho momo so much, they are expanding. They have an outlet in Pokhara and are opening one in Baluwatar too.
Go ahead, the place is definitely worth a visit. Tell me how it went for you!

    it's all fake..they steal the name and popularity. the real mitho momo is located at banasthali kharibot, where people eat blindly because of its taste ,hygiene and popularity..so before writing pls know the fact...jail nepal.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

The Leaving vs The Left Behind

  I still remember,  I was standing near the entrance looking out at the garden. I was at my best friend’s home and she had gone to get her ever famous chips chilly for me. I was to leave for Bangalore again, in a couple of days. While I waited, I looked out at the garden and this thought came into my head. “Who is it harder for? The one leaving or the ones left behind?” Is it going to be harder for me in a new place readjusting and exploring, or my best friend here, who will me miss me? Is it harder for a person to settle in a completely new place with a completely new lifestyle and have to find new people or for a person to see the same old places, the same old alleys and reminiscent the good times they had with their friend who are not around at the moment? It was a random thought that filled my mind a couple of minutes and then I got over it. Some time after resettling here in Bangalore, my best friend sent me a reel. The reel was about 2 close friends who used to lived ...

Most Asked Question

  Coming back home after one year has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me the past month. Getting to see everyone again, embracing family and friends, working on an office desk again, walking through same old alleys and of course, devouring delicious food that I so dearly missed. I am actually almost through the food list that I have been saving. But the people have been asking me the same question a lot: do you like it here in Nepal or in Bangalore? And the answer has always been the same for me: I like it wherever I am. Kathmandu is home, it is warm, and it is where family is. Bangalore is a different vibe and freedom and excitement. Kathmandu is a different fun and Bangalore is different fun, which is why I live in the moment and enjoy where I am. My mother always tells me: “ La wani tha nya wani ma” in Nepal Bhasa meaning “ the fish must go where the water goes”. The meaning while very basic is also very deep. If the fish does not flow with the water, it cannot survive. I...
