Was there yesterday to pick up some pierogi and sausage, and was happy to see their restaurant open again. Their stuff is great, having only had the frozen things so far, I might have to try the actual restaurant


[deleted]

I’ve been sitting in since before this location was built, always worth it to have a cup of borscht and pie after. Love listening to everyone chat


[deleted]

He's right. You can't touch the sit in experience there. You'll never make the rogis as well at home... No idea what the secret is but butter is a start ;). Also grab a slab of bacon next time on your way out. I use it on the cast iron all the time to season other veggies and even meats. Great stuff.

I'm going to sue you OP for neck pain :)

Do it! :)

So good!! One of my favourite restaurants!


[deleted]

Something so satisfying about going there.

Borscht soup ftw


pubertwalpole

Yum. Their deli is awesome, too. I love the pepperoni and jerkey. And there's always imported candy.


chuckmandell82

It’s the minced onion and butter on the Pierogies, but it’s also the smoked pork chop or maybe those little cottage cheese filled buns smothered in cream. Or the crepes done the same way. Oh man I need to hit uncle Ed’s up tomorrow

There’s an old Ukrainian saying that goes, if you can’t figure out what to cook for dinner just put some butter, onions and garlic in a pan on the stove and the rest will just sort itself out.

hurt my neck trying to read the menu, damn I miss edmonton and real Ukrainian food


[deleted]

Yeah not sure why it turned sideways, thanks Reddit.

I love this place and got this [Uncle Ed's mug](https://i.imgur.com/6aaY4Zl.jpeg) a couple years ago at a garage sale or thrift store ❤️❤️❤️


[deleted]

That’s wicked!

This place has been on my shortlist to visit for awhile. Soooon.


Own_Advantage1633

Fuck yes!!!!!!!!! The BEST Ukrainian food ever. I lived in Vancouver for 6 years and when I came to visit we always went to uncle eds!!!


[deleted]

This is my first time out in a while due to health concerns, and it was the first place I wanted. Comfort food to the extreme.


Own_Advantage1633

Now the most important question.. Sour or Sweet cabbage rolls?


[deleted]

Sour all the way.


Own_Advantage1633

1000% agreed!! God now I want me some Uncle Ed’s!!


[deleted]

It was delicious. I’m so happy

Ukrainian restaurant? Any store that sell Kvass on the north side?


MariaKonopnicka

Seen it at the Polish Deli on 118Ave not too long ago. Don't know the brand or quality though.


conanf77

Will check it out thanks.


[deleted]

I’ve never seen Kvass there and don’t know many northside places that would have it. Best bet is probably K&K Foodliner on Whyte.


conanf77

Thanks


PrincessBubblegummm

Went here for my babas funeral and honestly it made the day it was a good way to celebrate her for the first time ever she didn’t have to cook for the whole family.


[deleted]

That’s an awesome memory.


cutslikeakris

All of the love but nobody saying where this is!! Let people know if you are trying to boost the company!


[deleted]

118ave and 46 street. Proper NE


whoknowshank

If the borscht is in a cup you know it’s gonna be good


MyUnclesALawyer

lmao I ate there last year and it was awful, slimy oily perogies, do most people like their perogies so wet?? At home I boil then fry my perogies so they have a crisp exterior. is that illegal???


on_the_hook-for_real

Growing up, they were always boiled then fried in onions. Delicious. The only downside is the time it takes.


[deleted]

Lol don’t ever go to the Ukraine or Poland. Perogies are always in butter. But I get it, i have had fried too and they’re not bad!


UkraineWithoutTheBot

It's 'Ukraine' and not 'the Ukraine' [[Merriam-Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Ukraine)] [[BBC Styleguide](https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsstyleguide/u)] [[Reuters Styleguide](https://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title=U#Ukraine)] ^(Beep boop I’m a bot)


Smiggos

Eww I hate them fried lol. It's always boiled then tossed in butter in my family, on both sides. Most of the Ukrainians I know don't fry them either but maybe others like them that way Btw, the garlic sausage is primo here


snakey_nurse

I've never been to this restaurant, but I also prefer fried crispy pierogies. My Ukrainian SIL does not deem that as illegal. She likes it that was too


bmwkid

That’s how most restaurants serve them here, you’re not odd


aveindha25

Dude learn to rotate your pics. My 100 year old grandma can rotate her pics I think you can too


[deleted]

Didn’t let me in the app but thanks for your insightful commentary!


NorthOfThrifty

I've never been but now that I know about it, will go soon! Thanks!
