Kalinka Restaurant - Montreal
UPDATE SAT 18-NOV-2006: The restaurant is now closed, defunct, kaputz, as in no longer. :-(
I have no idea what happened to the owners, or why they closed up, if
they relocated, moved back to Russia, or what. A Mexican-Argentian
restaurant has taken its place. *sigh* There goes the only affordable
and best bowl of borscht in town.
Best borscht this side of the atlantic!
Small but cozy Russian restaurant on rue St. Marc - above St.
Catherine St.
My favorite Russian restaurant; for absolutely the BEST borscht in town - perfect for a chill November or wintery day! And if the
borscht doesn`t warm you up, try a shot of stolichnaya!
Na zdorove, baby!
LOCATION: 1409 St Marc

It looks good, but what is Borscht?
Artista (79 months ago | reply)
Borscht is a russian soup made with beets and is usually served with sour cream.

Not JUST beets ;-)
This restaurant makes the BEST borscht in town! Made with fresh beets, yes - but also added is fresh shredded cabbage, onions, potatoes, polish sausage, and seasonings.
Served with a generous dollop of rich sour cream and sprinkled with fresh dill, with a side dish of dark caraway rye bread..
Delicious comrade!
I highly recommend it on a cold, blustery wintery day!!
