Life after momos is the search for the perfect momo,
By
This review is from: Food in Tibetan Life (Hardcover)
This book spends some time describing Tibet culture and orienting one towards Tibet cuisine. Scattered throughout the book are delightful line drawings. Rinjing Dorje, an ethno-musicologist, folktale collector, author, bartender etc.... learned to cook from his mother and in a Buddhist monastery. He not only learned to cook well, he learned how to teach others to cook well. Momos, a Tibetan meat filled dumpling, is just the start.You will find this volume delightful whether your interest is Tibetan culture or food.
