The Carrot Cake Company

Hey there all! Long time no chat!!
It’s been a crazy whirlwind year, since we got out of the restaurant business. We have definitely missed seeing all your faces, and sharing all your stories, but we can now see you face to face again, down at Crossroads Market in Calgary! You can find us in between Old Munich, and PB and J YYC. The stall we are operating out of is called Fresh in the City, and we offer a huge selection of ready made sandwiches and salads, along with our carrot cake! We are currently baking 7 days a week here, to try and keep up with your insatiable demands for our carrot cakes, but there are just not enough hours in each day! Since opening at the market, and largely by requests, we have added to our carrot cake varieties, to now include our original with walnuts, OG with walnuts and raisins, and OG with just raisins. Currently we are only selling our 10 oz pieces, however, in the not too distant future, we will offer 1/4 pan, (9x13), 1/2 pan, (18x13), and multi-layered 9” round cakes to order! They will be available any way you like your carrot cake!
We look forward to seeing you at Crossroads Market Ltd. Friday-Sunday 9am-5pm.
See you soon!

Well folks, a lot has happened in the last 24 hours, including the sale of the restaurant. We will no longer be involved in the front end business, effective immediately. We have enjoyed meeting each and every one of you over the last 3 years, and hopefully that feeling is mutual! This page will be changing its name to “The Carrot Cake Company”, and we hope you will all stick around and follow our progression in expanding that venture. We would like to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your patronage over the last 3 years, and are sorry for the little time we have had to say goodbye.
We will update you when we know more about the new owners, and their plans for Country Cousins.
Thank you again,
❤️The Rempels

Asian Salad
Egg Rolls (vegetarian) (limited numbers)

If you haven’t tried our brisket, you have been missing out! One of my biggest problems with barbeque places, is that most of them have an extremely inconsistent brisket. One day it’s the greatest brisket you ever had, and the next day you might as well have eaten the bottom of your shoe… we pride ourselves on giving you a consistent product every time you have one of our sandwiches, or have it beside your eggs for breakfast. FYI- Our brisket sandwiches are the most popular item on the menu, and have consistently been in the top 3 since we opened. All I can say is, do yourself a favour and come try our brisket!

This Saturday from 4-7, let Susie transport you to Belize, no passport required! Our resident Belizean Susie, is cooking up her favourite things from home, so get here early, as we filled up fast last week!

From the bottom of our hearts, Thanks to everyone that came out this evening for our Menno Buffet! Thank also to those that shared our post, and those that passed it on to friends and family.
Here’s what was eaten from 4-7…..

400 cottage cheese Perogies
300 potato cheddar Perogies
25 pounds of Farmer Sausage
67 Cabbage rolls
5 pounds of fried purple cabbage
5 pounds fried onions
2 gallons of Smaunt Fat
5 gallons of Borscht

We literally have not served that many people in a single service, since January/February 2020. It has given us hope for the future, in what has been a fairly bleak past few years.

Thanks again, we appreciate each and every one of you,
❤️ The Rempel’s
