A new Belarusian cuisine restaurant, "Palyushki," featuring dishes based on the legendary Alena Branislavauna's recipes, has opened in Minsk
Alena Branislavauna is the creator of the popular eatery "Palyushki" in Turaŭ, known for dishes she cooks exclusively in an oven. She passed on her culinary secrets to Yury Saroka, the brand chef of the new restaurant, so now authentic ancestral dishes can be tasted in the historical center of Minsk — Rakau Miestaka.
The main concept of Minsk's "Palyushki" is based on exploring roots and their modern interpretation. Even in the interior, the creators aimed to reinterpret a rural house. The walls here are made in the wattle and daub technique. The oven in the center of the room is painted with crimson poppies, blue cornflowers, and daisies — as if covered with an embroidered towel. Of course, there is a lot of wood, as well as other details that allude to traditional crafts. The team calls all this "neofolk."
As for guest service, they want to make every visitor feel "at home," among family members.
For those who didn't know, palyushki are small, "one-bite" buns made from yeast dough, traditionally baked in Polesie. Their presence was mandatory at weddings and christenings, but they were also eaten as a standalone dish or an addition to soups every day.
In the new cafe, palyushki are served with borscht, as well as part of the signature bread basket.
All dishes according to Alena Branislavauna's recipe are marked with a special symbol-logo in the form of a hospitable woman. These include, for example, potato sausage with cracklings and cottage cheese (32 rubles), Polesie dumplings (23 rubles), zhur on oat sourdough (28 rubles), vereshchaka on beet kvass with thick pancakes or draniki (49 rubles), as well as traditional oven-baked babka (29 rubles).
Those with a sweet tooth will not be left without desserts: from Alena Branislavauna's menu — thick pancakes with homemade pear jam and plombir ice cream. Also offered are rum babka with redcurrant mousse, medovik (honey cake), and ice cream. The latter is served with pine cone jam.
The cafe is located at Viciebskaya Street, 7 and operates from 12 PM to 11 PM. On Fridays and Saturdays, opening hours are extended until 1:00 AM.
It should be noted that this is not the first new place featuring Belarusian cuisine recently — Belarus is currently experiencing a real boom in restaurants serving traditional dishes.
