Menu
Everything on this menu is gluten free. Zi Spice is a 100% dedicated gluten-free kitchen — no gluten enters the building, so there is no cross-contamination risk anywhere in our process. We bake our own bread, make our own chai, syrups, yogurt and chocolates, and our eggs come from our own hens.
