Klafira

This is very much a re-discovering of an old favorite. Used to love it, then not so much, then loved it again, then not and so on. Here it is - went today and love it again.

Always enjoyed the interior. Thick tapestry curtains and table-cloths mixed with hand-painted walls. The artist was no Michelangelo, but good enough. Aaany-how, it makes me feel comfortable to be there. The staff is always dressed in a traditional Russian folklore type of garments and it is probably an over-kill, but hey...

So it was lunch and I decided to have something that has been known as one of the most efficient hangover cures for decades -seljanka. I did not have an actual hangover. I just wanted to see if they can still do it. That is - to prepare a soup that has its roots deep in a what can we make out of left-overs tradition. Definetely up there with Pasta e fagioli and Paella.

...and it was good. Real good. There are just so many places that offer this dish and way too often it is just horrific. Not at Klafira. A definite thumbs up. I followed with a Salmon Tartare just to stay on a healthy side. I don't even know why. It came with some capers, cherry tomatoes, couple of salad leaves and some olives. Salmon was fresh and so was everything accompanying it.

So I love it again.
