Get your taste buds ready for a unique fusion of Nepalese dumplings and Hawaiian poke bowls at Momo Bar in Dee Why.
Who would have thought that combining dumplings and poke bowls would be such a big hit? The co-owners of Momo Bar, Damien Dellala and Archana Dellala, were surprised that their experiment of combining two diverse cuisines captured the market so well in Manly that they are now having their second venue at Dee Why Grand.
The newly opened Momo Bar at Dee Why is four times bigger than the Manly shop. It was beautifully made by an architect who is also their current third business partner for this casual restaurant.
But aside from its size and interiors, Momo Bar at Dee Why now has an onsite kitchen, unlike the shop at Manly which operates on a rented kitchen above their actual shop. By having an onsite kitchen at Momo Bar Dee Why, production of dumplings is now made easier and more efficient.
Momos and Poke
Momo Bar is known for their mouthwatering steamed Momos (Nepalese dumplings) filled with herbs and spices, a traditional Himalayan delicacy in Nepal. The dumplings they serve vary from chicken, lamb, and pork. Gluten free and vegan options for dumplings such as organic lentil and mixed vegetables are also available.
Hawaiian poke options include Volcano, Tiki, and Aloha. Vegan bowls and build your own poke bowls from a selection of Japanese inspired base are also available.
Aside from Momo Bar’s dumplings and healthy poke bowls, they also serve delicious veggie juices, with a range of ingredients to choose from. Organic coffee and tea are also listed on their menu.

Breakfast momos’ fillings include salmon, mixed berries, potato and egg, and mushroom. These dumplings are served with a dollop of natural yogurt to enhance more the flavours of the dumplings.
