This place is now called Momo's Canteen and the food is delicious! The prawn laksa is authentic and the chicken curry is very flavourful. Definitely made my tummy very happy. Love it! Wish it wasn't such a trek to get to though.
Fantastic no nonsense food ! Went in pretty unplanned and uncharted and am very pleased I did. My friend and I both had a bowl of the Malaysian Chicken curry with brown rice, which had just the right amount of heat and spices - I don't like food too spicy or hot despite being Indian.
All that and under £5 :)
This was simply perfect, especially with temperatures outside being about 6 degrees at lunchtime brrrr... Highly recommended 👍🏼
There are a number of independent little eating places around the Barbican area in addition to the usual Pret A Mangers, EATs and Subways. Momo’wich is a small modern cafe in Carthusian Street that sells South East Asian street food and aims to deliver ‘authentic Malaysian and Thai flavours.’ You will find amongst other things, Malaysian beef rendang,Thai green chicken curry, soup noodles including curry laksa, steamed sandwich buns, chicken satay and Vietnamese summer rolls on the menu. I’ve noticed bánh mi making an appearance as a special. Vegetarians can order butternut squash Thai red curry, tofu soup noodles, vegetarian spring rolls, tofu summer rolls and vegetarian steamed sandwich buns.
