Authentic. 

That’s the word I would use to describe the food and experience at Konga Cafe.  Konga is located at 204 Ave H North and it is worth a visit. 

Konga serves Caribbean food and serves it well.  

Their beverages looked incredible although I didn't partake. If you visit rum appears to be their speciality.  Their menu had a bunch of options I had my eye on the Goat Curry however it wasn’t available.  The waitress informed me that there was Oxtail if I was looking for something a little ‘special’.  I gave her a funny look and she started telling me about it and I heard the word authentic and I was sold.  

When the plate was set down in front of me it wasn’t the prettiest presentation of a plate but hot damn was it delicious.  It was served in such a way that you would expect it to be served to you in the Caribbean.  

I dug right in and it was fall off the bone amazing.  The meat was succulent and the spicing was spot on.  The potatoes in the background were a perfect compliment to the oxtail and were helpful in soaking up some of the incredible juices on the plate. 

Too spice up the plate if that’s something you’re interested in (which it should be because it’s Caribbean food) they have an amazing selection of different hot sauces available to you.  

I highly recommend you visit Konga but please do not judge the place by your first impressions when you walk in.  Judge it by the amazing wait staff and the incredible food.
