Back in the USSR!

Tom and I had dinner at Spotykach last night. Spotykach is a soviet-style restaurant that is popular with tourists and Ukrainians alike. It was our "cheat day," so we were allowed to eat whatever we wanted (within reason). We we greeted with the typical shot of vodka and bit of salo (pig fat). Tom ordered the Chicken Kyiv and I had vereniky. We tried to make some healthy choices and opted for borcht without sour cream. The restaurant is kitschy and a good stop for visiting relatives, I would image.
