Toronto PopUp and Pera present:“Zakuski”Roman Kliotzkin, aka Pera, is a creative young chef, aspiring to introduce modern Russian cuisine to the Toronto food scene. Born in Kaliningrad, Russia, he has travelled and eaten all over the world - food is his passion, and he cannot stop cooking and thinking of new and exciting dishes. Zakuski are delicious Russian small plates, typically eaten with a lot of vodka and the dinner will stay true to their spirit.After spending months finding the best local sources for meat, wild mushrooms, vegetables and even foraged herbs, we are extremely excited to put it all together into a 5 course dinner. If you have attended a Toronto PopUp experience before, you know what we're all about: creating a stage upon which local food talent can be showcased. A place where new and experienced chefs get to try different things without the restraints of an operational restaurant. If this is your first one, be ready for a fresh take on dining, connect with like-minded food lovers and support Toronto’s next generation of culinary artistry. To the minds of most people, Russian and Eastern European food is all beets, potatoes, and cabbage - but there are a ton of undiscovered dishes and preparation methods which we would like to introduce with a modern flare.Roman is inspired by the bustling Toronto food scene and how a completely new restaurant or cafe is always a block away, opening space for cultural diversity and innovation. His first pop-up kitchen event was a sold out hit at Belljar Café – and now he is going bigger and with more creative ambition this time around, partnering up with Toronto PopUp, for an evening featuring a passionate new chef’s take on Russian and Eastern European dishes.The Monarch Tavern has been the home to all Toronto PopUp dinners, offering a full cash bar with a great variety of craft beers, classic and new cocktails, wines, bottle service and a huge list of spirits and whiskeys and of course, VODKA! Expect to make new friends at large communal tables, share the experience with everyone around you, and through social media. Roman is excited to personally meet and thank every guest while giving some extra insight on the menu after dinner.The menu is nut-free but please note that we cannot 100% guarantee there will be no cross-contamination in the kitchen, in case of severe and life-threatening allergies. Please advise us of any concerns when you purchase your tickets, and let us know if you have friends purchasing tickets separately so that we can be sure to place you together, as seats will be pre-assigned to ensure the evening runs smoothly.
