Rejoice Café - Tamarac

An absolute gem of a place, not only for the wonderful owners (identify you to find more friendly people), but for some incredibly tasty and diverse food choices. One example that is very obvious is the empanadas. I think there were at least 20 varieties and in our group of five we tried 10 of them and there was not a loser in the bunch. My daughter got the American Breakfast, I had the Philadelphia and Sweet Corn. We also tried the Argentine and some others and we loved them all, both in the café and later heated up. My hubby got the salmon on toast and it was huge and delicious. Someone else got a regular scrambled eggs and toast breakfast and said it was perfect. My father got the quiche and said it was outstanding, but I want to talk to you about soup. I love soup, no matter the weather and I’m constantly frustrated at the lack of variety available, not to mention the quality when it is available. There were 12 different types of soup. TWELVE! There were four that looked great to me and Ozzi (the owner) suggested the chorizo with chickpeas and lentils and it was so delicious. The coffees and teas were great, and of course we had to try two pieces of the cake which were delicious. Lastly, I was so touched when they brought out an alfajor for my husband who was celebrating his birthday and who grew up in Argentina, it was such a lovely gesture. It is such a blessing to see a couple who love the Lord and want to honor him with everything they do thrive in this way. I wish we lived close by so we could go all the time, but we will definitely be returning the next time we visit family in the area!
