BORSCHT IS EVERY MANS DREAM

The achingly hip exterior kept me away for a full week. Yet after so many glowing reviews from locals about their borscht I swallowed my pride and hit my stride down the 5 blocks from home.

It was sunny so I decided to park my posterior outside, a plan that turned to mud when the concrete truck pulled up and started its noise-concert. I headed in, just as my soup arrived.

It was perfect. Perhaps the only negative was the amount of fat on the meat but that seems to get bonus points in these parts.
