Newa Pasa

A short walk from Oji Station, Newa Pasa presents an intriguing menu that extends well beyond standard curry and naan. Anchored by the aromatic spice profiles of Nepalese cooking, the restaurant maintains a comfortable, welcoming vibe where curry spaghetti topped with melted cheese, pad thai, and crisp fried snacks share table space with classic subcontinental dishes.

For a hearty meal, building around a curry combination is the natural starting point. The kitchen caters to varied tastes, offering creamy butter chicken, vibrant spinach-based curries, and rich mutton masala where the sweetness of slowly cooked onions takes centre stage. The choice of staple is just as versatile: alongside huge, freshly baked plain naan, you can opt for nutty black sesame naan, indulgent cheese naan, or fragrant jeera rice lightly tossed with cumin seeds.

Evenings are well suited to lingering over small plates with a drink. Grilled dishes like juicy seekh kebabs and charcoal-cooked mutton sekuwa, steamed momo dumplings, and chana chatpate—a tangy, crunchy chickpea snack—all carry an addictive spicy kick. Paired with a refreshing glass of Nepal Ice beer, a Nepalese rum and soda, or a sweet lassi cocktail, they make for an enjoyable spread.

Located up the stairs on the 2nd floor, the dining room is filled with table seating suited for quick solo dinners as well as group meals where dishes are shared across the table. Whether stopping in for a casual lunch capped off with a warm cup of chiya tea or catching up over diverse plates in the evening, it provides an easy, welcoming retreat tailored to the day's mood.
