//The line

Owner Dawa Sherpa told Forbes contributor Nina Roberts that Kanchanjunga, a small red-walled family café, normally produces about 900 momos on an ordinary day — a volume that reflects steady, near-constant demand rather than an occasional rush. That daily output figure comes directly from the owner, not a marketing estimate.

For the annual Momo Crawl, Sherpa said the restaurant prepared 600 additional momos on top of its regular daily batch to keep up with the crawl's foot traffic, per the same Forbes report. That surge production suggests waits and sell-through pressure are heaviest on Momo Crawl day rather than a typical weekday.
