What can be said about this institution for Ukrainian food that hasn\u2019t been said before? In business for more than 70 years, it\u2019s been a beacon of deliciousness for New Yorkers at nearly every hour of the day and for nearly every occasion. And the recipes remain as classic and satisfying as ever. But wait, did we mention \u2026 reservations? You can now book in advance to dive into housemade pierogi, plump and stuffed with all manner of fillings, as well as crisp latkes. And you should also consider holubsti (cabbage stuffed with ground pork, rice, sauerkraut, and mushrooms) and the bigos, a warming bowl of stew composed of kielbasa, roasted pork, sauerkraut, and onions, served with a side of mashed potatoes. Oh, and who doesn\u2019t love all-day breakfast? The Veselka GCT, a fried egg sandwich with sausage, sharp cheddar, and baby arugula on a challah roll is divine, and the Ukrainian breakfast burrito hits the spot with its combination of potato pancakes, kielbasa, melted cheddar, scrambled eggs, and Ukrainian dressing. Save room for some medovyk (honey cake). P.S. There\u2019s a newer location of Veselka in Williamsburg that has the same menu of crowd-pleasing hits.<\/p>\n
