Borscht!

[threeplusfire]

Well. I said potato leek soup, but I may actually break down and make borscht. The full two day event of making stock from beef bones and short ribs, roasting beets, buttering vegetables and melding it together sort of thing. It's lots of labor but it is just so good.

I had a cup of some warm, red borscht at dinner. Then cabbage stuffed with pork topped with sausage and a piece of crispy bacon. Mmmm. Plus paprika laden sauerkraut. Then black forest cake! It was a birthday dinner for a friend and it was lovely.

That sounds so damn good, I'm practically drooling.

Your posts make me soooooo hungry.

...ok, I'm always hungry now but usually I don't want to eat.

This makes me WANT!

I am always talking about food! The place we ate at is called European Bistro and they serve this wonderful Eastern European food.

I randomly want pierogis now...

And those cabbage things I could never pronounce.

I don't know why there aren't any decent Eastern European places nearby. We have everything else!
