Bogusha's Restaurant and Deli: pierogi in Portland

Bogusha's is a small restaurant and deli with an intimate and warm atmosphere. The owner, Bogusha is usually there greeting, serving or cooking. A tremendous amount of inventory is packed into a small space. You will find dried canned frozen and fresh foods. There are imported cosmetics, magazines , seasonal greeting cards and interesting sweets and bakery goods.

Favorite Dish: It is tough to choose a favorite dish. Some of my favorites include the home made, potato pancakes, pierogies and the stroganoff with kasha. All the home made soups are great! Chicken is very good but the white Barszcz is just too wonderful. There are also generic sandwiches if you happen to have someone with no sense of adventure in your party.
