Soup:

Thai Red Curry Coconut & Vegetable! $8

We had enough ingredients to make one more small batch for today (we will have a new soup tomorrow!) Coconut milk, red curry paste, garlic, galangal, broccoli, tofu, lime leaves, mushrooms, bell peppers, fresh basil and rice in this delicious soup! It is always popular! A perfect blend of sweet and spicy (but not crazy hot).

(Vegan. Dairy free! Contains soy which has traces of gluten).

Appetizer:

Red Lentil Fritters with Hummus! $13

These are amazing! Raw red lentils were soaked and then pulsed up with onions, garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, coriander and chili flakes. You get four of them fried up like falafels, and served with a homemade roasted carrot hummus, which is so tasty! It’s made with tahini, carrots (which give it a sweetness), cumin, coriander seeds, chilies, etc. Good for two to share!

(Vegan. Gluten and dairy free, although it is fried in a communal fryer! Contains sesame).

Leftovers Deal:

Home Fries! $7

Our potatoes are seasoned, grilled up until crunchy and drizzled with our house spiced mayo! Add fried eggs for $1.50 each.

(Vegetarian. Gluten and 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!

Fuze Iced Tea $3

Perrier or Lemon & Blood Orange San Pellegrino $3.50

Main:

Middle Eastern Fusion Beef Kebab Plate! $26

Ground beef seasoned with minced onions, garlic, cilantro & parsley and aromatic spices like cardamom, fennel, paprika and many whole spices that were toasted up and ground with a mortar and pestle- cumin seeds, coriander seeds, caraway seeds and dried chilies. It is grilled up, and served on top of a delicious red pepper, tomato & feta sauce (sweetened with pomegranate molasses). It comes with a rice pilaf (rice made with onions, garlic, brown lentils, butter, spices), and a little salad made with lettuce, cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes, an herb and lemon vinaigrette and homemade naan “croutons” on top!

(Gluten-free without the naan chips on the salad. Contains dairy).

Desserts:

1 of 2: Return of the Apple Pie Roti! $11 - Limited Amount!- Jenn will take it off the website when it’s gone :)

Big enough for 2-4 to share!  Homemade dough that is rolled out and fried (like a Beaver Tail!), and dipped in a bit of cinnamon sugar.  It is topped with an apple pie filling (apples, brown sugar, walnuts, etc.) and whipped cream cheese.  Yum!

(Contains gluten, dairy and walnuts.  Egg free).

2 of 2: Double Chocolate “Blackout” Cake! $10

Layers of homemade chocolate cake with layers of homemade chocolate pudding in the middle and a whipped chocolate icing. Made with just a bit of coffee, this cake will check ALL the boxes! Big enough for 2!
