RESERVATION PROTOCOL
The best way to make a reservation is to call 519-832-9121 any time after 1:30PM on Wednesdays to Saturdays (and you can call after 8:30AM on Sundays). If you wish to pre-order your food when you make your reservation, go for it! Walk-ins will only be accepted if it's a slow night for take-out, (take-out is about 80% of our business, thus reservations are strongly recommended!) :)

Saturday June 6th (4:00-8:00)
For a take-out order or reservation, call 519-832-9121 any time after 1:30! The regular menu is available, plus the features below! We still have plenty of openings - give us a call! :) Please note that today is our last day open before a one-week holiday! We have good stock to start, but as the day goes on we will be running out of some items. Jenn will add sold-out items right here as the night progresses. :)
We are now taking reservations for dine-in and take-out for Father’s Day on Sunday June 21! We are doing our breakfast menu from 9:00-12:30. Even if you don’t know what you want yet, you can call to pre-book a time spot for take-out and call back with the order itself that morning!
Soup:
Polish Potato and Dill Pickle! $8
This soup is SOOOOO tasty (and no, it’s not super pickle-y or sour!) It is so creamy, with potatoes, carrots, celery, sour cream, fresh dill, paprika, bay leaves, butter, chopped pickled cucumbers and vegetable stock - the flavour is awesome! (Jenn normally skips the side pickle on her plate, but enjoyed this soup a lot!)
(Vegetarian. Contains gluten and dairy).
Appetizer:
Return of the Homemade Ground Beef & Cheese Empanada! $14
A flaky, buttery homemade dough stuffed with a filling of seasoned ground beef (cooked with onions, corn, green peppers, kidney beans, garlic, ancho & chipotle powder, allspice, oregano, paprika, cumin, etc.) that is baked until brown! It's huge, very filling and can easily be split between two or even three people!
(Contains gluten and dairy [and corn in the beef version]).
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:
Return of the Hungarian Chicken Paprikash! $26
We bring this back often since we get many requests for it (Dev's Eastern European cooking is ridiculously good!) Chicken breast, bell peppers, onions, garlic, paprika, dill, caraway, tomato paste, sour cream and chicken stock cooked in this glorious stew. It is served over homemade spatezle (little boiled flour dumplings made with a hint of nutmeg and black pepper) and topped with a dollop of sour cream. Packed full of flavour, and very filling!
(Contains dairy and gluten).
Desserts:
1 of 2: Hungarian Triple Chocolate Cake $10
A homemade chocolate sponge cake layered with a whipped chocolate ganache and topped with regular chocolate ganache. Basically, it’s three kinds of chocolate in one cake, and that can never be a bad thing! Big enough for 2!
(Contains eggs, gluten and dairy).
2 of 2: Coconut Raspberry Cake! $10
A homemade quadruple-layered vanilla cake with a homemade raspberry custard in between, a buttercream icing and toasted coconut on the outside! Big enough for 2!
(Contains gluten, egg and dairy).
