Soup:

Caribbean Squash Puree! $8

Butternut squash, celery, carrots, sweet potatoes, coconut oil, coconut milk, scotch bonnets, onions, ginger, garlic, fresh thyme, allspice and oregano in this lovely pureed soup! A touch of heat, but not crazy hot. Warming and healthy!

(Vegan. Gluten and dairy free).

Appetizer:

Caribbean Loaded Tostones! $14

So good! Tostones are plantains (they look like bananas, but have a more starchy taste/texture like a potato) that are squished down and fried until crunchy. Two of them are topped with a mash of sweet potatoes with onions, garlic, grilled corn, chipotle & ancho powder, cumin, and ground pepitas (pumpkin seeds). They are then drizzled with a delicious homemade avocado mayo (cilantro, lime juice, avocadoes, sour cream, etc). Great for 2 people to share! Lots of steps went into making this!

(Vegetarian. Contains mayo and dairy. Gluten-free, but the plantains are fried in a communal basket, so it’s not suitable for people with celiac disease).

Leftovers Deal:

Home Fries! $7

We have a few potatoes left from Sunday! They are seasoned, grilled 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!

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:

Caribbean Jerk Chicken Wrap! $25

A lot of work went into making this delicious (and big) meal!  The chicken thighs were marinated in a homemade jerk sauce (green onions, garlic, scotch bonnets, allspice, thyme, paprika, cumin, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, fresh oregano, burnt sugar, lime juice, orange juice, etc.) - they are then chopped up and wrapped in a giant tortilla with lettuce, pickled red onions & cucumbers and a homemade spiced mayo made with pureed mango.  Served with rice and pinto beans made with coconut milk, green bell peppers, fresh thyme and allspice. SOOOO good!  It has a noticeable heat, but it’s not oppressive :) Always a very popular special!

(Gluten-free without the wrap!  Dairy free!)

Dessert:

Coconut-Raspberry Apricot Cake! $10

OH. MY. One of Jenn’s favourites! A vanilla cake base made with a bit of coconut milk layered with homemade apricot jam & raspberry jam and with a Swiss butter cream icing! Toasted coconut is on the outside! Big enough for 2!

(Contains gluten, eggs and dairy).
