"The deli and grocery outpost of Kachka, selling items like frozen dumplings and their famous horseradish vodka, which will now be distilled in-house." - Paolo Bicchieri
"For something Slavic, Kachka’s small market and deli is certainly the go-to move for countless Portlanders. Kachka packs quite a bit into such a tiny space: Here, Portlanders can find Russian cured meats, cheeses, house-made pickles, house-baked breads and pastries, and a wide assortment of preserved fish and roe. The best one-and-done picnic option is likely the Ruskie Zakuski Experience, which comes with everything from herring under a fur coat to salat Olivier — online orders for the package are requested 24 hours in advance, but picnickers can also call in to inquire about same-day orders." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"During the strike, Portland public school teachers can get 50 percent off the lunch menu at Kachka's upstairs deli and market, Kachka Lavka." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Chef Bonnie Morales has developed a reputation for her thoughtful approach to the cuisines of the former Soviet Republics. Her deli and market, Kachka Lavka, will feature fun dumplings and salads at Pickathon." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Kachka’s daytime cafe leans light and towards deli dishes — diners first head upstairs to Lavka’s compact market space to place orders before grabbing a seat in the main restaurant. Live your fancy toast life with an open-faced buterbrod topped with beet horseradish-cured salmon or sink your teeth into a fluffy piroshki stuffed with fillings like egg and scallion, potato and dill, Latvian bacon, or vatrushka with quince butter." - Janey Wong
