Any time I was in the neighborhood with extra time on my hands, I\u2019d head over to see if the promise had been fulfilled, only to hear the sound of my crest falling. But not long ago as I was rushing past between pre-lunch (which had run late) and lunch-lunch (which was about to commence), wouldn\u2019t you know it, the kitchen was truly in full swing. \u201cHow long would it take to get an order of Jhol Mo:mo to go?\u201d I panted. \u201cTen minutes,\u201d came the reply.<\/p>\n<p>So totally worth the wait. Even after a microwave reheat later at home, they were excellent. Herby and spicy with a unique flavor profile, they were unlike some of the standard regulation versions I\u2019ve had in the neighborhood. Obviously, I\u2019m keen to return with more time and a tableful of pals to run the menu \u2013 which currently is more like a long, undifferentiated list of the usual suspects: choila, sekuwa, sandheko, thukpa, thenthuk and lots more begging to be tasted.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1440\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11119\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JJVZ0805-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe inner workings.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Excellent momo from a new Nepali restaurant. <a href=\"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/?p=11120\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3336,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[59,6],"tags":[71],"class_list":["post-11120","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-instagram","category-restaurants-food-courts","tag-nepali"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11120","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3336"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11120"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11120\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11125,"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11120\/revisions\/11125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11120"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11120"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ethnojunkie.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11120"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
