Oh the Harvest Festival is over. Time to relax and reflect. This year was extra special and nerve wrecking for me. I decided to bring "Flavours from home"- my home in Poland to Momo. Why? Why now? Last year I went for the first time to "Food...
I actually cannot believe that we are open 3 years. The most stressful, incredible and wonderful 3 years...
I promised to tell you what's going on behind the closed doors of our kitchen at Momo...
What are you doing? Where do you work? I'm a waitress. "Just a waitress? Are you looking for a real job? Is it 'just for now?'" http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2013/jun/20/waiter-enjoy-job-not-stupid?CMP=share_btn_fb I love being a waitress. I'm so lucky to be able to do what I enjoy every day, hopefully for the rest...

My food education will never end. That is the real beauty of food for me. There are so many options, ingredients, way of cooking, cultures, histories, climates, seasons, spices and flavours to discover. My childhood was complicated. The first 8 years of my life I spent...
I would like to tell you my story - my food education story. Growing up in communistic Poland was challenging and interesting. Food and goods were very limited. Eating well required lots of imagination and work. My grandmother Helena was definitely my biggest influence. She was born...
This year we are going even bigger and better with our Harvest Celebrations. From Friday 9th September - Sunday 11th September we offer our customers 'THE FOOD HEROS OF WATERFORD MENU'; Available from 5pm on Friday and Saturday and all day Sunday. This 4 course menu is inspired...
As far as good weeks go, last week was up there with the best. My head is full of inspiration. I cannot stop thinking about everything food related! Last Monday we went to the finals of 'The Irish Restaurant Awards' in Dublin. It was a very elegant even; strictly...
Last Thursday evening we went to 'Phil Grimes Pub.' This time not only for a pint or two. This time we bought food for 40+ people; a four course meal with an accompanying craft beer. Tom Ryan chose very carefully; 4 craft beers to go...

Last year, just after we opened Momo, one evening I sat down with a glass wine and got some food. A stranger came up and said: "It must be so great to own a restaurant. You can drink as much wine as you want and...
I wanted to write about my side and my view on rewards, awards and reviews for a long time. All so important for a restaurant owner. So close to my heart. Reviews; the heart stopping moment of the unknown. Every time, every single time, when I...
Christmas season is over. The New Year has just started. Time for reflection, planning, getting ready for what this year is going to bring. Christmas, when you are working in the restaurant industry is different. Most people don't really like it...
Superheros. Here at Momo we have 4 fruit and vegetable suppliers. You are probably wondering 'why 4? Is one not good enough?' The answer is no. For us, seasonal and local produce is a must. Our suppliers are small, independent and local. They are all full of passion. They all...
I want to share the stories about our suppliers and producers - the real people behind the beautiful produce. These people are full of passion, extremely hard working, dedicated, and wonderful. We are so incredibly lucky to have such wonderful superheroes on our doorstep in the...
Getting a little sentimental this morning. Tomorrow is our first anniversary since we officially opened the front door of Momo. This is how it all started. I dreamed about having our own family run restaurant for years. The idea was always changing and evolving for years. On...
I was thinking about writing this blog for months. I did blog before but in Polish, so get ready for my poor English, bad grammar and hopefully a little bit of fun. MY opinion on things...
We've just updated our menu to include lots of new vegetarian dishes. Most of these can be tailored for vegans too! The menu includes lots of the healthy options you'd expect, but also some hearty, filling dinners such as our risotto and black bean and...
