Eat Out

MOMO SOKO

-

BEST FOR Asian street food with a modern twist. FOOD Winner of the Asian-inspired category in Gauteng at the 2018 Best Everyday Eateries. Expect to find nothing less than perfect mapo tofu, which is braised in Szechuan pepper sauce and is headily aromatic and spicy. Fiery green beans are slathered in ginger, chilli and garlic and perfectly al dente; or try the twice-cooked baby beef ribs in barbecue sauce. Matterhorn soko, lamb with green basil-mint drizzle, toasted sesame seeds and spring onions is a must. Move onto fluffy baos, stuffed to the rim with various fillings. The baohaus bao is a favourite, with teriyaki beef, hoisin, Japanese mayo and pickled onions. Or try the exotic Kung Pow bao with spicy Korean beef, kimchi, sesame, gochujang, mayo and spring onions. DRINKS Whet your appetite with coconut water, yuzu gingerbeer or Turkish delight lemonade. SERVICE Friendly. AMBIENCE The décor creates an Asian street festival feeling. (JP)
