Went here following a recommendation and was curious to see how a upscale/proper Momo place compares to our street stalls of Momo. Specially since this is Siliguri where I have grown up having awesome Momo's just from Street Food stalls.
The recommendation was for Cheese Prawn Momo which were not available for us. We had Chicken Momo (they only had chicken and Veggies) and quite liked it. It comes 8 in a plate and costs around 130 rupees. The Momo's are of respectable size. Though they don't give the soup we used to have. They are pretty tasty, but not any different than my favorite local street Momo shop.
This place is inside City Center (Siliguri) on the basement floor. The decor is nice. I had a seat in the upper balcony . Though I guess the shop isn't old you already can see some of the wallpapers getting torned off here. Not their fault though. I don't trust CC's...
Read moreThe chicken momos are amazing.. like literally mouth watering and you would go back again n again to have them The ambience is great They prepare the momos after you order so they are absolutely fresh.
The 2 star is for the lady at counter who charges anything she wants. We have been eating chicken momos from momo hub whenever we visit city centre and the charges are Rs 120 per plate
On the day of Eid, the lady increased it to Rs 150 per plate for no reason, they don’t accept cards or upi (personal reasons to save tax may be) and then there is just a blank white paper with the numbers written which seems to be.a bill which in case you forget to take, she won’t ask you the second time to take it!! You can always ask for extra money if you’re in need but DONT...
Read moreI'll be honest. This place isn't cheap. But, if you love momos like me then you should definitely give it a try. Do not confuse this place with a street side momo stall. The ambience is lovely although not the best. But for it's size, I'd say they have done a good job setting it up. Coming back to the 'Momo', they are delicious and juicy. For 200 bucks a plate (price may change) it is on the pricier side, but it's still a better option...
