Soup:

Mexican Pumpkin & Squash! $8

Pumpkin, butternut squash, carrots, celery, onions, garlic all pureed with cumin, chipotle, cinnamon, coconut oil, etc. A lovely orange soup perfect for this fall weather! Topped with a few house-pickled jalapenos, a dollop of sour cream and toasted pepitas! The only real heat is from the jalapenos!

(Vegan without the sour cream. Contains a bit of soy - which has traces of gluten - but otherwise there is no flour in the soup).

Appetizer:

Mexican Potato & Cheese Croquettes! $13

SOOO GOOD! Mashed potatoes, cheddar & mozzarella cheese, green onions, garlic powder, cumin, chilies, lime, etc., formed into croquettes and rolled up in a flour-egg-and-bread-crumb coating and fried until crunchy (and the cheese gets gooey!) Two come in an order and are served with a homemade smoky spiced Mexican tomato sauce to dip (ancho, chipotle, garlic, onions, garlic, carrots, tomatoes). YUM!

(Contains gluten, eggs and dairy. Vegetarian).

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:

SOLD OUT UNTIL TOMORROW! SORRY :( FISH TACOS!!! $26

You have been patiently waiting for these wonderfully delicious tacos, and now we have them! A generous portion of haddock seasoned with cumin, coriander, paprika, oregano, cayenne, etc., grilled up until dark, chopped up and served in two soft-shelled flour tortillas with a crisp and tasty cabbage-carrot-red onion slaw (made with a lime-cumin mayo dressing.) Served with a side of “green rice” (rice cooked with cilantro, parsley, green onions, jalapenos, etc.). Always a huge hit!

(Dairy free. Gluten free with one large GF tortilla [+$1] instead of 2 smaller ones)

Desserts:

1 of 2: Raspberry Coconut Cake! $10

A vanilla-coconut milk case layered with a homemade raspberry sauce, and homemade Swiss butter cream.  With toasted coconut on the outside!  Big enough for 2.

(Contains gluten, dairy and eggs).

2 of 2: Return of the Tres Leches Cake! $10

OH. MY. WORD.  This is heavennnnnnly!  A vanilla sponge cake soaked in condensed milk, evaporated milk, and cream (the texture is sooo good - kind of like tiramisu).  It is topped with a thick layer of homemade whipped cream mixed with dulce de leche (caramel!)  Big enough for 2!

(Contains gluten, dairy and eggs).
