"One of our favorite restaurant pop-ups of 2021, Dacha 46, is raising money to turn their project into a catering and events business (and lease a commercial-grade kitchen). Consider supporting Dacha 46 this weekend via Kickstarter if you’re able. An added perk: if you show the donation receipt at Ursula in Crown Heights, you’ll get a free burrito." - Hannah Albertine
"Dacha 46 began as a pop-up from chefs Jess and Trina Quinn, centering around Latvian and Ukrainian food. When Justice and Lindsley met Jess and Trina, they immediately hit it off. “We felt warmed by their friendliness (and a piece of cake they graciously brought us),” Lindsley explains. “We feel so lucky to be in community with these two, and love to see queers repping food from immigrant communities, especially in Brooklyn. Oftentimes, pop-ups (and many restaurants) feel unequal in the proficiency of their savory and sweet programs, but Dacha 46 is different. Their savory pelmenis and sweet cakes delight in equal measure.”" - Sam Stone 1
"One of our favorite pop-up projects of the year, Dacha 46, will be serving their Eastern European food at Ursula in Crown Heights on Friday, August 13th. Stop by from 4-8pm for chicken and celery root skewers, sweet corn cherry plombir cake, and khachapuri pelmeni filled with four different cheeses and topped with salmon roe. Keep an eye out for more pop-ups from Ursula and Dacha in the future." - Hannah Albertine
"If your ideal park picnic involves plump pork pelmeni, hazelnut-mocha kievsky, and piroshki filled with American breakfast staples like eggs, potatoes, and bacon, head to Dacha 46’s pop-up in Prospect Heights. Their weekend-only “Banya Brunch” pop-up is currently serving a rotating menu of eastern European dishes from the former MeMe’s Diner space on Washington Avenue. They typically save a few orders for walk-ins, but you’re better off preordering ahead of time through their website." - Nikko Duren, Matt Tervooren
"Very good news for people who have been following Brooklyn pop-ups: Eastern European project, Dacha 46, is taking over the former space of Meme’s Diner in Prospect Heights - starting with a new Sunday brunch series. The first Banya Brunch is on Sunday, April 18th from 10am-3pm. You can place your order online ahead of time for dishes like breakfast piroshki, pork-stuffed pelmeni, and a sweet dough pastry with cheese and sour cherries in the middle. It’s all available for takeout-only, and they’ll hold a limited amount of dishes for walk-ups." - Hannah Albertine
