    Great place just in the heart of the Old Town. Very humble , looking rather like a "milk bar" in Poland but the dishes are worth visiting it.

    A wide variety of pielmieni -cooked and baked- stuffed with meat, potatoes, spinach, mushrooms and so on. It's self-service so you just take a bowl and fill it with pielmieni, add melted butter and sour cream, maybe some salads and go to the scales. The price is about 3,50 lats per kilo.

    I dined at a Restaurant called Rendezvous in the centre of Riga town square, where many coffee shops and the service and prices were agreeable, roughly 20% less than the U.K.
    good atmosphere and pleasant suroundings also good strategic positioning for the shops and art galleries.

    Fillet Steak with Bernise sauce.

  • There are many good restaurants in Riga, mostly they are situated in or near Old Town. But as for me I prefer restaurant LIDO. You have to visit the biggest wooden building-restaurant in Europe (it is situated on Krasta street). As for me I like beer which is made there. The prices are ussually lower then in Europe.
    Unique friendly atmosphere. Girls in national clothes and plenty of space.

    Beef with blood. But you can find almost everything in the restaurant's kitchen

    Saldskabmaize (sweet-sour rye bread)

    Saldskabmaize (sweet-sour rye bread)

    Ingredients: 4 kg finely ground rye flour, 2 litre water, 2 tablespoons caraway seeds, 4 slices rye bread or 50 gr yeast.

    (The dough can be made with the whey of farm or regular cheese. Nowadays, sometimes a few teaspoons of sugar, lemon or orange rinds are added to the dough).

    Start the work in the evening. Sift the flour, pour half of it into the dough trough and add boiling water. Mix thoroughly. When the dough has cooled to lukewarm, add crumbled rye bread or mix in soaked, mashed slices of rye bread. Mix the dough well, sprinkle it with flour, cover the trough and leave it in a warm place to turn sour. The next morning beat the dough thoroughly with a wooden stirrer, add caraway seeds and add 1/3 of the remaining flour. When the dough has completely risen, knead in the remaining flour. The dough is ready when it no longer stick to the hands. Sprinkle the dough with flour, cover it, leave it to rise. Heat the oven. When the oven is heated and the dough has risen, its surface cracked, form the loaves. In comparison to rye bread you should make smaller, longer, narrower, loaves. Smooth the surface, smear it with beer, whey, or water. The bread bakes for approximately one hour. Take the baked loaves out and smear them with water, in your palm, then cover them with a clean cloth.

  • Being in Riga it's a must to visit its new Lido restaurant.
    It's located on a big road ( unfortunately I don't know its name, but it was opened in the beginning of 2000.)
    It was also a nice small taverna in Sigulda near Sigulda castle.
    Lido is unigue with its traditional furniture, food and entertainment.
    Taverna in Sigulda can take you a couple of centuries back.
    You wouldn't regret about this trip to the past.

    I love potato dishes they cook a lot in Latvia. And black peas baked in a pot accompanied with a liguid yogurt called keffir. That's very special.
