The chef could easily be working in a big city restaurant. As vegans, my wife and I limited our choices, but there is no need for omnivores to worry. I had the chana masala rice bowl. I was expecting small portions and so-so sauce. Instead the lunch was difficult to finish (but I did and mopped up the sauce with the last piece of naan). The dish had sweet potato and carrots with the chickpeas and the sauce was full of flavour yet light and clean. Unexpectedly, it came with salad vegetables and the presentation was enticing. My wife had the falafel wrap and it was too much for her to finish--much as she wanted to. She raved about it as well as the salad, particularly the dressing. The service was friendly and helpful and the price was reasonable. If you're anywhere near Nelson or Castlegar, this is the restaurant to find.

I fall into the latter camp and did not enjoy the coffee here. The breakfast sandwich was messy, hearty, and good. They were out of croissants by mid-to-late morning, so I had it on a cheddar scone. Lovely outdoor area with numerous cozy nooks to perch among the plants and birds, and also quite a bit of seating inside. Obviously a very popular spot amongst the locals.
