Lido !!!!: Don´t miss Latvian food !!!

by josecarlos

Lido is a chain of restaurants in many parts of Latvia. There are plenty of them in Riga and they normally serve Latvian traditional food at moderate/cheap prices.You can choose from a big variety of dishes, and full your plate with meat, fish, chicken, soup, have a beer and dessert for about 5 pounds all. If you're short of money you can survive with that the whole day. It's a lot of food !!!

Pork and smoked fish

by mariquita

Latvian cuisine does not boast a great variety. Pork, potatoes and smoked fish were the most usual dishes we were served. Fortunately, there were a lot of other restaurants in Riga where we could have a rest from all that exhausting food.

Saldskabmaize (sweet-sour rye bread)

by vairab

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....

by dwin80

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

Tower is the restaurant very well known by the inhabitants of Riga and it's guests. Opened in 1993 it deserves true love of its clients because of unique cuisine, combined national scandinavian recipes with most famous international meals. Practical design, cozy atmosphere together with perfect quality of food will fit any demands of our customers. Everything is designed to give pleasureful time weather having a fancy dinner or a business lunchV.I.P. room, which is situated on the second floor of '' The House of Tower''. Being separated from the other halls of our restaurant and casino it gives You a great opportunity to spend some time with Your friends, date or even business partners in a most classic and elegant atmosphere.

by polinia

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.
