Writing this caption in the spring of 2022 (!!!) and I still really miss Odessa. These days I have to walk an extra 2 avenues to Veselka if I want some Eastern European diner comfort food.
Had a double-entre late night victory feast from Odessa. A cheeseburger with onions & swiss and an entire container of penne vodka because WHY NOT? (Also, I think the chef added way too much actual vodka because I actually got DRUNK eating this pasta and I don't think that's supposed to happen??)
