Eating Potatoes in Vilnius🥔

🔆【Etno Dvaras】 🔆A popular Lithuanian chain restaurant with multiple locations—just walk in to the nearest one! 🔆I visited around 4 PM (to escape a hailstorm) and it was already packed. 🔆 Most customers ordered in English, so like me, they were probably tourists (or fellow hail refugees). 🥔 Potato Dumplings (Meat-Stuffed) 🥬Cepelinai—I skipped the sour cream, so the plain potato parts got a bit heavy. 🥬The texture was perfect: fluffy yet chewy. Way better than British potatoes! 🥔 Potato Sausage 🥬If choosing one, pick this! The sausage is savory, meaty, and way more flavorful. 🍄 Mushroom Soup 🥬Tasted just like the famous Icelandic version—a nostalgic Nordic flavor bomb. 💶 Pro Tip: One potato dish per person is plenty. 🥬Two is overkill (but crazy cheap—my €29 feast could’ve been under €20). 🍹【Lokys】 🍹Booked ahead (Google warned of 30-minute waits). 🍹By 5:30 PM, it was full—though outdoor seating helped. 🦌 Lokys House Regale (Wild Game Platter) 🍹Featured wild boar 🐗, beaver 🦫, venison 🫎, and sausage. 🍹Venison & boar: Tasted like pork (if not for the server’s explanation). 🥟Beaver: Shockingly tender—like beef! 🥟Sausage: Salty, but the red wine dip saved it. 🥟Verdict: A meat overload without standout flavors. 🦞 Crayfish Soup 🥟Skip it—the broth reeked of fishiness. 🙅🏻‍♀️ #LocalEats #Lithuania #VilniusFood
