On a previous visit I found my mutton curry delicious and my previous review was 5 star, but today I feel I need to update based on my more recent experience. On that previous visit my wife didn't enjoy as much as me and so we hadn't returned. But today, with my wife away, I wanted to see for myself so popped down to the restaurant to order.
This was takeaway but hot still once I got home, but even allowing for that the food was decidedly average.
Momo 10 in quantity were wrapped and cooked well, but very tiny, not much filling. The sauce was a simple tomato paste with little spice or flavour.
Moving onto my Chow mein was a small serving in one of those American style cardboard tubs. This was not packed in like they could and I feel penalised takeaway even though same price as eat in. The meat was limited in quantity and what was there seemed twice-cooked and quite "dry and toasty".
This might have been okay if the meat had taken up some of the flavours but unfortunately there wasn't much flavour to take up. I had asked for the noodles to to be extra spicy, and the lady even warned me that the noodles were already quite hot, but I felt okay with that. What was served had what I would say was literally zero spice. Actually there was so little flavour that I do wonder if between the front desk and the kitchen "extra spice" got translated into "no spice". Even tipping my momo sauce into the noodles couldn't help because that sauce was so light.
Recollecting that previous visit, I think my wife had Chow mein and Momo and because she wasn't a fan we hadn't returned. Now, having tried myself I think I understand she might have even been downplaying how...

Read moreAlthough I rated the food 3 stars the Fried Mutton Momo and Jhol Momo was very tasty, I found the curried soup a bit spicy so I couldn’t drink it however tasted very good with the 10 pieces of pork Momos.
For Mains I shared the Thaikali Khana Mutton Platter with my sister. The mutton curry was delicious with the Bhatura fluffy fried cumin bread. The cauli aloo (potato and cauliflower curry) was tasty and the daal is mild in flavour.
There was a particular dish that spoilt my meal as it was not to our liking which was the beans with bamboo shoots, its flavour profile was something we were not accustomed to. The other side dishes were ok. The buttered rice was quite dry.
We ordered a festive sweet dessert called Khuwa Yomari which had a milky solid filling with Chai flavours, unfortunately so not to our liking either.
Their Nepalese tea and coffee was yummy and would order that again.
They do have high chairs which my brother in law had to bring up himself from downstairs. Seemed short staffed during lunchtime, however when we asked questions about the menu the waitress...
