At Spicewalla, we believe cooking is community—a way to connect, share, and make memories. So we’ve crafted a menu that’s as fun to make as it is to eat 🍽
Nothing says “I love you” like a home-cooked meal ❤️
Whether you're celebrating with your soulmate, your besties, or just treating yourself (because self-love is the best love), food is the ultimate love language. This Valentine’s & Galentine’s Day, skip the crowded restaurants and overpriced prix-fixe menus—light some candles, cue up the Chef’s Table soundtrack, and let’s get cooking!
Think: oysters with a no-fuss mignonette, a swoon-worthy roasted chicken, and decadent desserts that’ll have you (or your date) reaching for seconds. Whether you’re flexing your kitchen skills or just here for the chocolate, these recipes bring the heat in all the right ways.
So grab your favourite apron (or borrow one from your most chef-y friend), pour a glass of something festive, and get ready to impress. Because the best way to anyone’s heart? Through their taste buds 💘
STARTER
Oysters with Mignonette
We teamed up with our buds over at Island Creek Oysters to create the first-ever Mignonette Blend. What is mignonette you ask? A condiment served with fresh oysters made with a combination of vinegar, minced shallot and pepper.
No more finely mincing shallots by hand, just add this blend to your favourite vinegar and voila! Instant mignonette to go with freshly shucked Oysters. This blend is the perfect balance of pepper and shallot with a touch of beer powder to fully transport you to the beautiful Duxbury Bay slurping down fresh oysters without a care in the world!
Throw in some crushed pink peppercorns for Valentine's Day vibes!
VEGGIES
Winter Green Salad with Garlic Lemon Vinaigrette
Meet your new go-to: Garlic Lemon Vinaigrette! 🧄🍋
Made with fresh lemon juice, a touch of honey, and a kick of our Garlic Lover’s Collection blends—Honey Garlic, Garlic & Herb, or French Herbed Dijon—this zesty dressing is the ultimate way to level up your special dinner.
Shake it up in minutes, massage it into some washed & chopped kale, and thank us later.
