WHAT WE TASTED

Beef Tongue Sandwich

This Beef Tongue Sandwich is one of those dishes that surprises you with how refined and balanced it is.

Built on a thick slice of hearty, toasted sourdough, the star of the show is the smoked beef tongue — tender, rich, and deeply flavorful without being overwhelming. It’s layered with a creamy, herbaceous green sauce that adds a fresh and tangy lift, perfectly complementing the smokiness of the meat. Hidden underneath the leafy greens, you’ll find local mushrooms and finely shredded vegetables (likely beetroot or cabbage), adding both earthy depth and a slight sweetness.

On the side, a small selection of pickled vegetables brings a bright, acidic contrast that cuts through the richness and resets your palate between bites.

This isn’t your average sandwich — it’s complex, elegant, and full of thoughtful textures. A real treat for anyone who appreciates bold flavors and great technique.

Honey Cake

This Honey Cake is nothing short of a showstopper — both visually and in flavor.

Built on the classic Eastern European layered honey cake tradition, this version takes a contemporary, almost sculptural approach. The cake itself is light yet rich, with subtle caramelized notes from the honey and a perfectly crumbly texture. On top, delicate dollops of tonka bean mousse bring a velvety, floral creaminess — sweet with hints of vanilla, almond, and spice.

Then comes the real intrigue: black honey — dark, earthy, slightly bitter — and kombucha gel, which adds a surprising tang and brightness that cuts through the sweetness beautifully. The garnish of crispy golden wheat evokes natural elegance and gives just the right amount of crunch.

It’s a dessert that feels grounded in tradition but executed with modern precision. Every element adds something, and nothing feels overdone. A seriously memorable bite.

Derun

This Derun is a creative and elevated take on the classic Ukrainian potato pancake — rustic at heart, but plated with real finesse.

The base is a thick, crisp-edged potato pancake, golden brown and hearty, yet light enough to let the toppings shine. Laid on top is a beautifully balanced mix of flavors: house-smoked salmon, silky and savory with just the right touch of smoke, and a smooth, mildly spicy kimchi cream or purée that adds tang and umami without overpowering the dish.

Fresh, vibrant greens and herbs crown the derun, adding crunch and brightness. The mix of textures — crunchy, creamy, tender — is spot-on. Every bite gives you something different: comfort from the potato, punch from the kimchi, richness from the salmon, and freshness from the salad.

It’s the kind of dish that feels both familiar and completely new. Thoughtful, satisfying, and full of personality.
