To me Nepali cuisine is mostly Indian with some Chinese influence here and there. Mo:Mos are reminiscent of potstickers and in fact look like the potstickers my mum used to make but instead of vinegar and ginger they are served up with a spicy yogurt sauce. The food tends on the mild side and flavours are not as intense as true Indian cuisine. I've been to Himalayan twice and both times the food was great. The Dal-Bhat, a traditional Nepali plate is an excellent value and a great way of trying Nepali food; the main (Cottage cheese for non-meat version or a choice of lamb or chicken) is served with Dal (Lentil Soup), Bhat (Saffron Rice), Saag (Spinach in creamy sauce), Flat Bread (Buttered) and a traditional Nepali Side, pickled carrot and cabbage and Nepali style tomato sauce. Included is Tea or Coffee and Mango Rice Pudding. All this for $23. This time around I started with pork mo-mos. The wrapper of the mo-mos were a perfect texture. The filling could have had more flavour, it was basically pork with curry and was a bit too dense for my liking. The sauce needed jazzing up and the mo-mo and sauce came together well once I had a spicier version of the sauce brought to me. I had the Himalayan for my main which is roasted lamb or shrimp in a creamy tomato, red wine and cashew nut based sauce. This is served with naan and saffron rice and a traditional Nepali side. I chose lamb and the pieces of lamb were soft but could have been a little more tender. This is a mild dish but can be spiced up by telling your server you want it hot. The flavour of the tomato sauce was good but I couldn't determine what spices were used. It was very creamy from the cashews and not dairy. Saffron rice is perfectly cooked and the naan nice and fresh. Sanjay is a model of efficient and great service. He should start a school for servers; he's totally aware of what is happening in his restaurant and remembers detail. As soon as he found out that I loved spicy food, offered to make sure that my main dish was spiced up. The ambience is elegant and soothing. The parking lot is small as the location is a strip mall with 5-6 businesses all sharing the lot. Reservations are definitely recommended as it is a small place.
