STARTER:    Meat Doughnuts

These savory meat-filled doughnuts are somewhere between fluffy doughnuts, fried buns, and traditional Eastern European belyashi. Soft yeast dough surrounds a juicy meat filling, creating a crispy golden outside and tender center. They are perfect as a snack, lunch, or party food. The filling idea is adapted from a traditional meat doughnut recipe.

SOUP:    Schi (Cabbage Soup)

Schi is a centuries-old Russian soup, beloved for its simple ingredients and flavor that deepens over time. Traditionally enjoyed over several days, it gets tastier as the flavors meld. With Hungarian paprika, this version adds a modern twist to a classic comfort food.

MAIN COURSE:    Meat Patties

You can use any meat for these patties. I prefer a mixture of beef, pork and veal in a 1:1:1 ratio.

DESSERT:    Sponge Cake with Creamy Mascarpone Frosting

A tender hot‑milk sponge, soaked with fragrant coffee and layered with airy mascarpone cream, this cake brings together the softness of a classic sponge and the cozy charm of tiramisu. Each thin layer melts into the next, creating a light, balanced dessert that feels both simple and quietly indulgent.

NEW RECIPE

   Lavender Syrup

Lavender syrup has long been made in Provence, France, where fields of fragrant lavender bloom every summer. This homemade version uses freshly harvested culinary lavender blossoms to create a delicate floral syrup that pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, lemonade, sparkling water, cocktails, and desserts. The flavor is subtle and elegant—never overpowering—when steeped for the proper amount of time.
