INSANE FOOD....WITH ATTITUDE!!!
**now open Sundays 11-5 until the end of August
If you’re crazy about great food, then the new Mad Chef Café, in downtown Courtenay, will make you absolutely insane!
Owner Kevin Munroe, the Mad Chef himself, wants to shake up the Comox Valley’s dining scene, and the Mad Chef Café’s eclectic menu and feisty attitude is already off to a good start.
“It’s insane food with attitude,” says Munroe, a red seal chef who’s worked the kitchens of Valley hot spots like Atlas Café, the Kingfisher Resort and the Pier Bistro. “It’s not your ordinary menu. It’s not Italian, it’s not Mexican, it’s just awesome food with no pretension.” The Mad Chef has even prepared a special menu for the young’uns, and every kid gets a special chef’s hat to colour and wear at home.

“We believe in fun dining,” says co-owner Shelley Bouchard. “There’s nothing worse than going out to a restaurant where you just don’t feel comfortable, where you have to watch how you sit and which fork you use. This isn’t that kind of place. It’s a place where you can relax, be yourself and just enjoy great food with great friends.”
Other ways the Mad Chef Café is shaking things up is through free downtown delivery and a slightly eccentric “Mad Chef Wear” clothing line. Chef Munroe’s unique line of “clothing with attitude,” available exclusively at the Mad Chef Café, features such memorable captions as “Tofu Ninjas Kick Ass.” The graphic depicts three SpongeBob-esque tofu nuggets kicking, punching and hurling carrot nunchuks at a defenseless donkey.
Let the insanity begin!
