Momos are a type of dumpling originating from Tibet, Nepal, Sikkim and Bhutan. They are very similar to Chinese dumplings, both baozi and jiaozi. Momos were said to have been introduced to India and Nepal by Tibetans living in exile. Although the origins of momos may differ depending on the source you read, the current global popularity of these dumplings are undeniable.
Momos are a popular street food in cities like Delhi and Kathmandu and have even made their way to Toronto. The dumplings are made from a simple dough of flour and water and have several different fillings and textures. Some are steamed, boiled, deep-fried, smothered in sauces or eaten with various dips. There are also several vegetarian and vegan options for the non-meat eaters out there but whatever variety you choose, all momos are extremely flavourful.
With every momo dish, you can taste and see the mixture of different spices and cooking techniques that have resulted from melded influences from numerous cultures that can be found in the Himalayas and adjacent regions.
Toronto is home to several restaurants that serve momos. There is a cluster of Tibetan restaurants in Parkdale's Little Tibet neighbourhood on Queen West, as well as other shops scattered throughout Toronto's various neighbourhoods. We have compiled the best places in the city to try momos and majority of these spots are offering takeout. Be sure to reference this guide when you find yourself craving momos or simply want to try a new dish!
