A street food star in Delhi, Momos does not need to be introduced to Delhiites or those residing in the NCR region of India. Momos are tasty dumplings made with vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. These have become the latest “fancy” of residents of Delhi and the NCR. I don’t know exactly when Delhi accepted these humble Tibetan dumplings and apparently made it their favorite snack.
