Momochas, a dumpling with a coriander/tomato dipping sauce, have achieved local cult status, but the menu presents excellent Nepalese food across the board. Two daily tarkari (stews) specials are always good, but try the kadi (onion dumplings), the spicy tuk-pa, or the buff, too. Very vegetarian- and vegan-friendly. Bathrooms are not wheelchair accessible. $4-$19.

6 whole food hangouts in Madison: Where eating healthy is a pleasure
While there continues to be plenty of confusion when the subject of diet and healthy eating comes up, I would argue that most everyone can agree on a few principles. First, that the food we eat, whether meat, grain or vegetable, should be actual food. That is, as unprocessed as possible and without chemical additives. Second, that we should be eating a variety of vegetables and fruit every day. And third, that we should be moderate with our portion size.

Himal Chuli owner vies for national award
Almost 40 years ago, Himal Chuli owner Krishna Pradhan left Nepal to work as a half-time lecturer at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His family stayed behind as he pursued his Ph.D. and saved a nest egg with the intention of returning to Nepal to "live happily ever after," says Pradhan. He never did make it back to Nepal to live, but he and his family are making good on the happily-ever-after part.
