RESERVATION PROTOCOL

Soup:

Caribbean Squash, Callaloo and Banana Puree! $8

This is sooo unique! Jenn loved it - it’s addicting! If you are open to trying something new, try this amazing pureed soup! Buttercup squash, sweet potatoes, coconut oil, habaneros, curry powder, thyme, callaloo (highly nutritious taro leaves!), and two ripe bananas were added to give it an authentic tropical taste! A pleasing blend of heat, savoury and just a touch of sweet.

(Vegan. Gluten and dairy free).

Appetizer:

Loaded Tostones! (Toe-stone-ays) $10

The flavour and texture of these are great! Tostones are plantains (they have a starchy flavour and texture like French fries) that are peeled, squished down, and fried until crunchy. Ours are topped with a homemade slaw (green cabbage, shredded carrots, red onions, pinto beans, grilled corn, cilantro and a lime-cumin mayo). You get two in an order served open-faced - good for 2 people to share!

(Gluten free, although they are fried in a communal fryer. Vegetarian. Dairy free).

Drinks:

Chai $4.00

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

Coffee! $3.50

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

Fuze Iced Tea $3

Perrier or Lemon & Blood Orange San Pellegrino $3.50

Main:

Jamaican Chicken and Vegetable Curry! $26 (Veg Only: $23)

This is so delicious, and filling! Caribbean flavours can’t be beat: onions, celery, garlic, habaneros, Jamaican curry powder, allspice, thyme, piegon peas, chicken breast pieces, green peas, potatoes, carrots, green bell peppers, cubanelle peppers, green onions, cilantro and coconut milk & oil are all cooked in this aromatic curry. With just the right amount of heat, it is packed full of flavour and is a very generous portion! Served with steamed rice and a small fried roti (like our doubles bread!)

(Gluten and dairy free without the bread - $24. Vegan/vegetarian without the chicken). 

Desserts:

1 of 2: Lemon Poppyseed Cake! $10

A classic! Four layers of the homemade cake with real lemon zest, butter and poppy seeds. With a homemade butter cream lemon curd icing! Big enough for 2.

(Contains gluten, dairy and eggs).

2 of 2: Classic Carrot Cake! $10

From an older cookbook, this slab-style carrot cake has cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, walnuts and cloves! Topped with cream cheese icing made with brown butter, it is delicious! Big enough for 2!
