Mains:

1 of 2: Persian Chicken in a Walnut-Pomegranate Sauce (Fesenjoun!) $26

Okay, this is just next-level delicious! Wow! It’s our first time making it :). Chicken breast pieces cooked in an aromatic sauce (not spicy at all) with ground walnuts, pomegranate molasses, cinnamon sticks, onions, turmeric, brown sugar, black pepper and tomato paste. It is REALLLLLY tasty! Served with a simple but delicious rice pilaf (basmati rice, real saffron, butter, onions, garlic), and with a fresh garnish of cucumbers and red onions with lemon juice. Topped with parsley and pomegranate arils, this is truly amazing and unlike anything else you’ll try!

(Contains walnuts. Gluten free! Contains butter).

2 of 2: 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).
