LOCATED in the heart of Myrtleford, Café Chulo serves modern Australian and Nepalese fusion style food.

Run by Nepalese husband and wife duo, Ram Chandra Poudel and Puja Bhandari Poudel, the café is family oriented and community focused.

With a busy breakfast and lunch crowd, the café has recently started opening for dinners on Friday and Saturday nights.

Owner Ram Chandra said they started opening for Nepalese dinner following suggestions from their regular customers.

“Our regular customers know we are Nepalese and many of them have visited Nepal and missed the cuisine,” he said.

“So, we thought we could bring a taste of Nepal to Myrtleford.

“No one else in the area is doing a similar thing so this is filling a gap in the market for the community.

"I would encourage everyone to try our menu, it's great for people who are familiar with Nepalese food or who have visited Nepal, as well as people who haven't tried its before and are looking to experience something new."

On top of their dinner specials, Café Chulo also offers a range of Australian and Nepalese breakfast and lunch meals, along with a daily curry, divine cakes and locally roasted coffee.

Family is a key aspect of Ram Chandra and Puja's business model, with a sister and sister-in-law also being part of the team.

Café Chulo is open from Wednesday to Sunday for breakfast and lunch from 8:30am to 2:30pm and Fridays and Saturdays from 5pm to 8:30 for dinner.
