Nepali cooking in Jackson Heights — momos, sekuwa, and a menu that goes well past the Indian-restaurant version
Nepali Bhanchha Ghar is one of the anchors of Jackson Heights' Nepali and Himalayan restaurant scene, which is the largest in the country. The momos — steamed or fried, filled with buffalo — are the entry point, but the menu goes considerably deeper: sekuwa, the grilled marinated meat, and the Thakali thali, a full plate of rice, lentils, curry, and pickles that shows the range of the cooking. Spicing is not moderated. The room is plain and the prices are low. It is the best kind of immigrant-neighborhood restaurant: cooking for the community first, and open to everyone else.
