The Reef

So I went to The Reef the other day for dinner with my friends after a hike up Stawamus Chief. Upon ordering our food, the waiter brought us complimentary Johnny Cakes which were sooo soooo good!

This is how they look:

After asking our friendly waiter about the item, he offered us some more Johnny Cakes :).

For the main, I ordered the Trini Roti with the Ital (vegan) filling with a side of coleslaw, which was served promptly.

Trini Roti:


 The filling is basically a chickpea and potato curry and the roti is kind of like a soft tortilla. I found the dish to be very filling but it wasn't anything special. I felt that the roti did not go well with the filling. My friends who ordered different versions of the Mo-Ca Burger, really enjoyed their meal. I also tried my friend's side -spicy, crispy Plaintain Chips - tasty.

Although I didn't like my main dish, I will definitely return to try out different items on their menu - my eye is on the Mo-Ca Burger with the tofu patty. This restaurant is definitely vegetarian-friendly. They offer vegetarians a variety of options. I've already been back to order a dozen Johnny Cakes for take-out for my family, and they loved it.
