Sweet, fried plantains that are perfectly cooked, offering a delightful balance to the savory chicken.

All-Day Lunch Special
A fantastic value, this special includes the flavorful Pili Pili chicken with your choice of two sides, offering generous portions.
"Go for the all-day lunch special with two sides, but make one of them plantains. You'll thank me later."
Maëlys McArdle
Rice
A well-cooked side, often Caribbean-style with a mild flavor and a pleasant texture from corn and peas.
"The side of rice was great and not dry, the side of plantains was fried to perfection and the chicken was super flavourful!"
Tiffany Trinh
Tilapia
A delicious fish option, grilled and seasoned, providing a great alternative to the chicken.
"And the tilapia is so good!"
