Description

Tenzing Momo is a shop in the Economy Market building at Seattle's Pike Place Market. Ellie White of KOMO-TV and Seattle Refined has described the shop as a "Tibetan apothecary".[1] [2] Lonely Planet says, "Doing a good impersonation of one of the magic shops in Diagon Alley from the Harry Potter books, Tenzing Momo is an old-school natural apothecary with shelves of mysterious glass bottles filled with herbs and tinctures to treat any ailment."[3] [4] According to Seattle Refined, the business stocks approximately 300 herbs (Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Western) and 300 essential oils.[5] In addition to dried herbs, the store carries spices, mixers,[6] incense,[7] bath products, tarot cards, and all-natural remedies.[8]

The Seattle Times has described the shop as "the West Coast's oldest, largest herbal apothecary".[9] The newspaper's Connie McDougall wrote, "Who can resist a shop with the translated name of 'divine dumpling'? Tenzing, a Tibetan title, means illustrious or divine, and momo is a yak-filled dumpling, so says manager Erik Smith... Tenzing Momo also claims to have the largest selection in town of essential oils as well as vast rows of medicinal herbs."[10]

Reception

Connie McDougall of The Seattle Times called the shop "exotic as they come ... both practical and profound". In 2008, Maggie Dutton of Seattle Weekly wrote:
