So happy to have found Pickapeppa in Whitehorse. Noticed the colourful sign, read a friend’s review and finally found it open. Got the jerk chicken meal with salad and rice, such generous portions plus a delicious homemade ginger beer. We had to try the Rotis too, so brought some home for today’s lunch (chickpea, eggplant and jerk chicken). Can’t wait!!!! I highly recommend Pickapepper....
I came in looking for a quick dinner and really enjoyed the goat curry and a mango smoothie. The service was fast and friendly and the atmosphere was comfortable. I would definitely eat here again and would like to try more items on the menu
Just tried the Jerk Chicken Roti and the Curried Chicken Roti, it was very good. “Roti” was soft and full of flavour. The curried chicken reminded me of a nice home cooked meal. The homemade Sorel drink had just the right kick with a hint of lime and the homemade pineapple ginger beer had just the right bite. The hours for this restaurant are a bit odd, The interior is warm and welcoming. I tried coming to this restaurant multiple times because I heard such amazing reviews. I’m glad I drove by today and saw the open sign lit up, It was absolutely worth the wait. Went again today and enjoyed the Roti with curried goat, a delicious mango smoothie and a beef patty. Absolutely happy.
Very tasty, and the custom spicy sauce we got was on point. Had the jerk chicken roti, and it was quite tasty. The jerk chicken salad might be a good option too. I'd go back to try the ox tail and goat for sure, I'd bet it would be very tasty and made authentic!
Very Amazing jerk chicken and oxtail. Love how tender the meats are, also love how they add roasted plantains. love how they add this salad mix with every meal (even if u get urs with rice), very nice mix of vege and fruits, nice mix of flavors.
Some of be best food in the Yukon! Their jerk chicken and curries are amazing. Lots of gluten free options. I am celiac and they seem knowledgeable and provide gluten free information about their menu when asked.
Started with the mango smoothie which was very refreshing especially in this summer season! For the main entree we ordered the spicy fish which hit the spot! The salad and fish was fresh and the rice is full of flavor and heavenly!! The beef curry was also good and very tender. We had the honor to meet the Master Chef Andrea and she makes everything with so much affection which shines through the wonderful flavors she is bringing to everyone. They also have a fun table that showcases the visitors from all over the world- so when you stop by make sure to bring currency from your hometown to continue this fun tradition! A must try when visiting Whitehorse!
Favourite spot in Whitehorse, curry goat was wicked!!! Felt like an island vibe in the middle of the Yukon
