|
Jamaica Plain's newest restaurant is Momo Masala, now serving up Nepali and Indian food, adding another food option to Hyde Square. As its name advertises, the restaurant features momos, which are a type of steamed dumpling in Tibetan and Nepali cuisine, and on the streets of Kathmandu. Momos are served steamed, fried, or soupor chili (chili is steamed and cooked with onion, tomato and green pepper, according to the restaurant's menu). There are eight different types of momos on the menu including a hariwali momo masala, which includes chopped spinach; and a tandoori momo, which includes Himalayan spices and masala. Along with momos, the menu is varied with lots of options for vegan and vegetarians (cauliflower, eggplant, potatoes, chickpeas, tofu, paneer) and non-vegetarian (shrimp, goat, chicken, lamb) with tikka saag, rogan josh, vindaloo, curry, and korma varieties.
