After Hours

You may not have seen this restaurant before, and there’s a reason for that: The “ghost kitchen” concept does not have its own storefront, but operates from within Cadman’s Montreal Bagels. After the restaurant’s regular hours, the pop-up restaurant takes over the kitchen to offer a different menu.

The food is a mix of richly topped home-style cooking, Mexican specialties, and Punjabi-style Indian dishes; incidentally, all prepared Halal. “We feature elevated comfort food like tacos, sandwiches, mac and cheese with different kinds of toppings,” owner and head chef Alysha Sharma says, “Your heart feels happy after you eat it.“

She started the business at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, out of a desire to share her passion for cooking and favourite recipes with others.

“My favourite part about Vanier is the community we’ve built here. I have so many regular customers living in the area, and they’re just some of the kindest people you’ll meet.“
