Updates :)

We will be taking our one-week spring break soon! We will be closed from Wednesday May 1- Sunday May 5 :) We are also now taking reservations for Mother’s Day brunch on Sunday May 12th. Feel free to reserve a table or take-out order for then! Our regular breakfast/kid’s menu and chai/coffee will be available that day, as well as a feature: Greek Spanakopita $22: A generous amount of spinach, feta, leeks, nutmeg, pistachios, black pepper, etc., in between layers of buttery phyllo pastry, topped with sesame seeds and baked until brown. It is served with homemade tzatziki (yogurt, olive oil, grated cucumbers, garlic, etc.) our home fries and a fresh fruit salad! (Vegetarian. Contains gluten, sesame and dairy).

Soup:

Corn Chowder! $7

This is always a hit, so we bring it back often - with onions, garlic, bell peppers, corn, cumin, jalapenos (but it's not too spicy!) potatoes, butter, cream and some cilantro!  Amazing - it truly is bursting with love, and is one of Jenn's favourites.

(Vegetarian.  Contains dairy.  Gluten free)

Drinks:

Chai $3.50

Our famous hot milky caffeinated sweet tea made with cardamom and ginger. :)

Coffee! $3

We have partnered with Rabbit Dash/Dizzy Bird here in town to serve you a cup of their delicious "Saffron Blend" - a medium-dark roast with nutty, syrupy hazelnut notes, and a bright aftertaste!

Cold Drinks:

Ginger Ale, A&W Root Beer, Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite $3

Nestea Iced Tea $3

Perrier or Lemon, Grapefruit & Blood Orange San Pellegrino $3.50

Main:

Chicken or Cauliflower Salbutes (Similar to Tacos!) $24/$21

This is soooooo tasty - oh my (and a generous portion)!  From Belize and the Yucatan peninsula, the tortillas are homemade (made with masa harina cornflour and regular flour with a cast iron tortilla press!) - you get two of them deep-fried until crunchy and filled like tacos with seasoned shredded chicken with onions & bell peppers OR roasted cauliflower & corn (chipotle, ancho, cumin, onion & garlic powder, paprika), a fresh lightly pickled salad (shredded cabbage, hot peppers, cilantro and red onions), and a fresh avocado crema drizzle (sour cream, lime juice)! It is served with homemade rice and beans (coconut oil & milk, kidney beans, chilies, allspice).  If you love fresh flavours, look no further!

(Contains dairy. Advise us if you need gluten-free, and we can make some tortillas with just the cornflour! Vegetarian with the cauliflower version).

Desserts:

1 of 2: Chocolate Cake of Dreams $10

A rich dark cocoa chocolate cake (made with coffee) layered with a homemade German vanilla butter cream (it is made with a custard!) and topped with a chocolate ganache!  Delicious!

(Contains gluten, eggs and dairy).

2 of 2: Spiced Carrot Cake $10

Delicious! A homemade carrot cake with crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, walnuts, cinnamon, ginger and allspice - it is layered with homemade cream cheese icing! Big enough for 2!

(Contains gluten, walnuts, dairy, and eggs).
