About The momos

A quick walk from Hornsby station lands you at a table laden with steaming platters of handmade dumplings and spiced Himalayan comfort. The draw here is the pressure cooker momos—tender-skinned pockets plunged into rich, spicy gravy that delivers pure warmth. Regulars drop in early for a classic morning spread of puffed puri with chana and hot tea, while evening tables fill up over shareable buff momo platters and cold Nepalese beers. Wok-tossed chicken chow mein brings smoky char to the table alongside plates of charred sekuwa. Pour a bowl of house achar, grab a fresh masala chai, and settle in.

  • Pressure Cooker Momos: Dumplings served in rich, spiced gravy alongside traditional steamed, chili, and fried varieties.
  • Breakfast and Lunch Spread: Mornings feature puri and chana with hot tea, transitioning to chai and lunch specials midday.
  • Group Platters and Cold Beers: Shareable platters, fiery sekuwa, and bottled Nepalese beers make an easy setup for casual get-togethers near the station.
