Ema datsi or chili cheese is the national dish (and best known Bhutanese dish to foreigners). Chili cheese is a side dish in most Bhutanese meals while momo, a dumpling dish less known outside Bhutan has a strong presence in the country as a staple dish. The dumpling dish is widely popular and momo joints are everywhere in Bhutan (in the same way chicken rice is ubiquitous in Singapore).
