Did Eleanor mean kishkes? Nyet. Kasha Varnishkes is, simply, kasha with bowtie pasta. Not a fan of the kishkes. I was as a child but then all bets were off once I found out what it was. ![]() I went to Sava's today. I ordered the combo platter as mentioned above. It was awesome. She's still feeling out the neighborhood so she's just cooking the basics and in limited amounts. Very sweet woman. I told her that I came in because of a post on the board and she was happily surprised. I left with a quart of the Ukrainian borscht. I will definitely be a regular customer.

Ooh! Can't wait to try it. I've missed Tania's.
Do they have kasha varnishkes? I've been craving it for a couple of weeks.

Stopped by tonight. Delicious and very filling. I think she's just getting going and still trying to get organized, but I think it's a great addition to the neighborhood. Gosh, what a change from Soul Flavors just down the block - twice the food for (less than?) half the price.
Quote: Does she have a menu or price list posted? She used to pick a price out of the air. Yes, there was a little menu of prices both outside the door and on the wall inside. Most of the food ran about $5-7, if I remember right. I had a big combination platter - kraut, kielbasa, stuffed cabbage and 3 pirogies for $7.50. (That was the most expensive thing on the menu, I think. Livin' large.) They also had a cooler with some foods packed to go. I.e., you could stop in and pick up a little container of stuffed cabbage and then have an easy-to-reheat dinner when you get home. There were also daily specials. Today was potato dumplings. And it looked like they kept refilling the trays with different foods. I really wanted to try everything. Eventually.

I really like potato and onion pierogis and wasn"t really happy with Sava's old place -- they were oily and microwaved rather than fresh boiled -- I really hope they do a better job now that they are downtown -- I hope they also carry more vegetarian kinds of pierogis -- mushroom, spinach, sweet potato, etc -- I also hope they have a few vegetarian soups -- I called their old number and wanted to order some take out but it just rings...

I went there on Thursday and loved the homemade food. Better than Tania's was on any day.

This deserves a post of it's own. Sava's - Polish Cafeteria has opened in what was formerly Stanleys on Grove St.
346 Grove Street Jersey City, NJ 07302 201-451-1901 They have a variety of hearty, delicious, Polish home cooked food, in serving trays, hot and ready to eat. It's cafeteria style , so no waiter to tip. I just ate there and I recommend it.
