Carnival Caribbean Cabana is one of the newest dining options offered to the Comox Valley, and is the only option that is inspired solely on Caribbean cuisine.
Carnival Caribbean Cabana specializes in preparing food in an authentic Caribbean style. Their blends of sauces and spices guarantee a unique dining experience.
Their menu offerings include Jamaican Patties, Johnny Cakes, Curry with Rice and Peas, Curried Goat or Chicken Roti, Fried Plantain, Wain’s famous Jerk Chicken Wings or Ribs, Sweet Potato Fries with Jerk Mayo, made in house Ginger Beer, Jamaican Sodas (we have Ting!) and so much more
If you asked Wain Jarvis, owner of Carnival Caribbean Cabana for one word that would describe the Caribbean Cuisine that he brings to our valley, it would be “flavors”.
While aroma, texture and visual presentation are important in any cuisine, it is the flavors that are the hallmark of Caribbean cooking. It is this rich blend of both familiar and exotic spices blended with heavy overtones of fresh tropical fruits and unusual vegetables that make it really distinct and habit forming!
Food served in the Caribbean islands have been influenced by cultures all over the world. Wain is the product of this mixing: his father is Jamaican and his mother is Guyanese. He learned his cooking style from both of them.
Whether you are new to this cuisine or a longtime fan, you’ll find a treat when you visit Wain’s converted bus at the top of Mission Hill. They know you’ll come away satisfied and a bit richer for the experience.
Carnival also believes in giving back. During the month of May, $1.00 from every order of Johnny Cakes sold at the Cabana went to support Conga III – A group of women who ride to support the fight against breast cancer. Conga III raised more than $12,000 in 2009 and hope to exceed that in 2010. Carnival also donated the food trays for the “Haiti in my Heart” Silent Auction held at Crown Isle Resort on April 09.
