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!) :)

Soups:
1 of 2: North African Roasted Root Vegetable Puree! $8
Carrots, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, celery, onions, garlic, cumin, coriander powder, cinnamon and chili flakes are all blended in this flavourful soup. So tasty - not hot, just flavourful!
(Vegan. Gluten and dairy free).
2 of 2: Corn Chowder! $8
This is always a hit, so we bring it back often - with onions, garlic, bell peppers, corn, cumin, jalapenos (but it's not too spicy!) potatoes, butter, cream and some cilantro! Amazing - it is bursting with love, and is one of Jenn's favourites.
(Vegetarian. Contains dairy. Gluten free!)
Appetizer:
Mediterranean Spinach and Feta Pocket! $12
A generous-sized homemade buttery pie crust folded over like a Jamaican patty that is stuffed with a delicious filling and baked until brown. The filling has spinach, feta cheese, leeks, ground pistachios, onions, garlic, dill, nutmeg, black pepper, chili flakes and lemon zest! AMAZING! Definitely big enough for 2 to share.
(Vegetarian. Contains gluten and dairy).
Leftovers Deal:
Home Fries! $7
We have some potatoes left from Sunday! Our home fries are seasoned up, grilled 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 “Shawarma” Plate! $26 (Veg: $24)
Okay, this is next-level, and is a lovely fusion dish! A giant homemade naan bread is topped with the following (you can attempt to fold it and eat it, but we recommend a knife and fork!): juicy chopped marinated chicken thighs (yogurt, ginger, garlic, onions, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, paprika, thyme, cardamom, allspice, cayenne, etc.), Dev’s delicious homemade hummus (chick peas, olive oil, tahini, garlic, lemon juice), shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes and cucumbers, sweetened red onions (cooked with pomegranate molasses, sumac and balsamic vinegar), and homemade toum (a super garlicky garlic sauce!) It is huge, very filling and all homemade! The vegetarian version is done with marinated cauliflower instead of the chicken - just as good!
(Contains gluten, sesame and dairy. Vegetarian with the cauliflower version).
Desserts:
1 of 2: Mango-Pineapple Sponge Cake! $10
Trifle-style, this is a lovely homemade sponge cake layered with crushed pineapple and mango chunks and homemade whipped cream and some condensed milk! It has a graham bottom! Simple, but tropical and delicious!
(Contains gluten, eggs and dairy).
2 of 2: Banana Walnut Cake! $10
A tasty banana cake made with cinnamon, ginger powder, walnuts and cardamom. It is layered with homemade butter cream icing! Big enough for 2.
(Contains gluten, eggs, walnuts and dairy!)
