Possibly the best Himalayan dumplings in London at House of Momo

Every country will have some sort of dumpling in their cuisine.
The Nepalese have dumplings called momo usuall filled with chicken which looks similar to Shanghai Xiao Long Baos.
I have had my fair share of Nepalese dumplings which revolve around steamed or pan fried dumplings served with hot sauce.
At House of Momo they serve a good variety of dumplings and there was one particular one that comes in curry sauce.
First you choose the dumpling, then how it is cooked and then if you want it with curry sauce.
I went for the cheese and veg dumplings, steamed then fried served in curry sauce with some extra Thukpa noodles.
On paying the guy with cash, I was given the wrong change.
While I was waiting for my food, I could hear noodles and rice being cooked which sounded like the stir fries in the Chinese takeaways but with much more effort as it was louder.
When the dumplings came, they did not disappoint. 
I tried the dumplings first and inside, it was filled with delicious melted gooey cheese tasting like cheddar.
The curry sauce that it was in was light which really worked as it did not steal the show from the dumplings and it was not spicy.
The thukpa noodles on the other hand were disappointing and the broth was nothing like urban yak.
Went back again for the chilli noodles and requested it without the sauce as it would be too spicy.
It was really nice of them to accomodate the request and served the sauce separate.
