A special 7-course dinner at @veselkanyc

Veselka
Veselka :: Beceлкa
on 2nd Ave at East 9th Street is a family-owned Ukrainian “soul food” diner, which has been in business since 1954. Last night, we were honored to be invited to a special 7-course dinner at @veselkanyc prepared by Chef Ievgen Klopotenko of Ukraine @klopotenko and Chef Dima Martseniuk of Veselka @chefdimamartseniuk to increase awareness of traditional Ukrainian food that many people may not be familiar with. The menu included delicious hot borscht with sour cream & buckwheat bread and filet mignon topped with herring. We also had some more unusual dishes including edible painting, roasted parsnip with sour cream & berries, as well as honey bees, propolis and sorrel as well as millet & gooseneck with apples and parsley. An amazing vodka infused with cherries was paired with our meal. We finished with a stunning apple dessert .
