Coming in hot …

HARISSA ROASTED CARROT SOUP — silky, a little smoky, a little spicy, topped with crispy golden halloumi croutons, a yogurt swirl + fresh herbs

The halloumi croutons might be the best part 😋

On now while it lasts!

We made this curried lentil soup and then apparently couldn’t leave it alone 🥴

Crispy pani puri stuffed with roasted chickpeas + roasted lentils + cilantro, finished with tamarind and a cool yogurt swirl!

A little crunchy, a little tangy, a little messy … very into it!

Still technically summer, but apparently we have all collectively decided it’s soup season!

And obviously we are starting with the heavy hitter —

PEANUT SWEET POTATO SOUP - Creamy • peanutty • a little spicy • topped with a raw coconut • peanut • cilantro • thai chili gremolata & a coconut swirl

She’s back. And yes, she’s still the favourite

We are hiring!

We are looking for a full-time Café Team Member to join us at Riverdale Perk Cafe

We are a busy neighbourhood café, and are looking for someone who is friendly, dependable, works well with others, and can keep things moving when the pace picks up. This is a hands-on, varied role where you will work across the café — connecting with customers, making great coffee, preparing food, and supporting the kitchen.
What we are looking for:

* Full-time availability
* Weekend availability
* Comfortable working in a busy café and kitchen environment
* Reliable, hardworking and able to multitask
* A positive attitude and strong team mentality
* Someone looking for a long-term position
* Café or kitchen experience is always a bonus, but the right attitude is just as important

We are a small team that works hard, supports one another, and takes a lot of pride in creating great food, great coffee, and a welcoming experience for our customers. We are looking for someone who wants to be part of that and grow with us.

Sound like you? We would love to hear from you.

When life gives you potatoes — make potato soup

Silky & simple … definitely not boring though!

That green herb oil… fresh, bright, herby, and honestly I’d drizzle it on everything if I could 😋

And the crispy leeks?
Ah yes … very much yes!
