A good place to begin
Momo is the dish that makes the Nepalese side of the menu feel easy to try.
At The Old School House, momo is one of the clearest starting points if you want to try something different without overthinking the order. It works just as well over drinks as it does at the start of a longer meal.
What to pair it with
Momo works best as the start of a wider table, not as a side note.
Once the table starts with momo, it becomes easier to move into the wider Nepalese kitchen, the pub classics, or a more mixed order that suits everyone around the table.
Book ahead
Book the table next if the momo sounds like the right first order.
Then you can come back to the menu and decide the rest of the order without rushing.
Busier evenings and Sundays are easiest to plan when you book ahead. Prefer to speak first? Give the pub a ring.
