Two comfort vocabularies share one Princess Street menu at Hakka Himalaya : House of MO:MO, and the dumpling in the name gets to act as both anchor and overture. The colon in the second half is the giveaway: the dumpling is not a section of the menu but a house-identity declaration. Steamed Mo:Mo is the Himalayan baseline; Jhol Mo:Mo is the same dumpling under a thin, chili-bright broth; the Chef's Trio Mo:Mo: Platter and the Half & Half Mo:Mo: Platter let a table read the kitchen across formats before committing to a single plate. The Kingston address opened in 2025 as a Nepalese-cuisine kitchen that also runs the Hakka-Indo-Chinese line, which means the appetizer board can move from Laphing and Chatpate into Chicken Lollipop without crossing a stylistic seam.
The momo program is the structural piece, and the dumplings are made fresh in-house — which is what lets the format variety read as one dough getting full expression rather than a printed list padded out. Steamed, jhol, sadeko, pan-fried, malai, fried, and half-and-half builds treat the house dumpling as a working program rather than a single appetizer slot, and the trio platter is engineered for the kind of group order where nobody wants to pick just one. Past dumplings the menu opens into the meal-set lane — Thakali Khana Set as the most complete Nepalese plate, with Dhido Set and Nepali Khaja Set carrying the same complete-meal weight for diners who want the visit to feel structured rather than scattered. Laphing, Chatpate, and Thukpa keep the Himalayan street-food register visible alongside the sets, and Nepali Authentic Chowmein and Nepali Authentic Fried Rice cover the noodle-and-rice middle of a table.

How to eat at Hakka Himalaya : House of MO:MO
1
Make Steamed Mo:Mo the Baseline
Order Steamed Mo:Mo first if you want the clearest read on the kitchen before choosing a sauced or fried variation. It keeps the dumpling format direct, then lets Jhol Mo:Mo, Sadeko Mo:Mo, or Chef's Trio Mo:Mo: Platter become the second move instead of the starting guess.
2
Use Thakali Khana Set for the Full Nepalese Arc
Thakali Khana Set is the best bridge from snack-style ordering into a full Nepalese meal. It gives the visit more shape than a table of appetizers, especially when paired with Laphing or Chatpate for the street-food side of the menu.
3
Turn Chicken Lollipop Into the Hakka Handshake
Chicken Lollipop is the right first Hakka-side order because it is compact, crisp, and easy to share. After that, move into Szechuan Chicken, Chili Chicken, or Tangra Masala Chicken if the table wants the sauced-main version of the same bold direction.
4
Build a Lunch Around Combo B
Lunch Combo B - Chowmein is the clean value move when the visit is more practical than exploratory. Add Masala Tea Cup or Mango Lassi if you want the meal to feel complete without turning a quick downtown lunch into a larger dinner order.
5
Plan a Group Mo:Mo Spread Around Platters
For a small group, use Chef's Trio Mo:Mo: Platter or Half & Half Mo:Mo: Platter as the shared center, then add one meal set and one Hakka main. That gives the table dumplings, Nepalese depth, and sauced comfort without ordering randomly across the very broad menu.
