It’s real hard to make a fun and upbeat Polish pop culture reference. Lemme see, can I bring up Roman Polanski? Ugh, no. How about a movie? Wait, no everyone dies in all of them and not in a fun Weekend at Bernies way. So, imma take the “Discover Your Roots,” approach to this post. Why let all the Irish Americans have all the fun? Mama’s side of the family gave us square faces and lack of pigmentation coupled with a sense of nihilism that speaks to our Polish heritage. Take a trip down the Vistula without having to leave Melbourne because you can’t leave Australia. #travelrestrictions A mere 10 minute drive from your house is this site’s winner for best restaurant name Borsch Vodka, and Tears. Their description is much more clever than anything I could make up so here:
Borsch, Vodka and Tears is a Melbourne institution currently celebrating 20 years at the colourful end of Chapel Street. Styled after a Kraków cellar bar, Borsch is a romantic Bohemian enclave, the home of the Green Faery, an ode to a hazy and debauched bygone world. We specialise in Polish vodka, vodka-centric interpretations of classic and modern cocktails, authentic wormwood absinthe, Eastern European beers, contemporary Polish dishes and late night fun times.
