Today’s Features:

Soups:

1 of 2: Indian Spiced Red Lentil $7

The flavour in this is outstanding!  Red lentils, onions, garlic, ginger, green chilies, coconut milk, tomatoes, and many aromatic spices (toasted cumin seeds, coriander, garam masala, fresh curry leaves, bay leaves, etc.) in this amazing soup!  Simple but so delicious!

(Vegan.  Gluten and dairy free).

2 of 2: Vegetarian Cabbage Roll $7

Back by popular demand! This soup is so hearty and VERY delicious!  With cabbage, tomatoes, onions, garlic, oregano, dill, rice, celery, carrots and vegetarian "ground beef" (it actually really works in this soup!)  Topped with a dollop of sour cream!

(Vegetarian.  Vegan without the sour cream.  Gluten free!)

Appetizer:

Tex-Mex Elotes in a Bowl! $9

This is SO GOOD!  Grilled corn kernels in a light sauce with mayo & sour cream, chipotles, cumin, chopped jalapenos, white onions & green bell peppers, finely chopped cilantro and lime juice!  It is served warm in a bowl topped with homemade queso fresco (crumbled white cheese).  It is big enough to split between 2 - there is a touch of heat but it’s offset by the sweetness of the corn!

(Vegetarian.  Gluten free! Contains dairy and egg [from the mayo]).

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:

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: Red Velvet Cake $10

Delicious and decadent (it’s also pretty to look at!) A homemade vanilla cake made with cocoa powder and coffee (dyed a lovely red - but not a lot of colouring!) with layers of homemade vanilla icing with chocolate chunks in it and chocolate ganache drizzled on top!  Big enough for 2 to share :)

(Contains gluten, eggs and dairy).  

2 of 2: Oat Dulce de Leche Cake! $8

A homemade tasty, moist cake made with oats, cinnamon, cloves, etc., topped with beautiful dulce de leche, toasted coconut and a chocolate ganache drizzle! Best served warm :)

(Contains gluten, eggs and dairy).
