Varenik&Pelmen Photo Gallery — A Visual Feast of Eastern European Dumplings
Welcome to the Varenik&Pelmen gallery, where you can see our beautiful dumplings, vibrant market stalls, and the people who make it all happen. From golden pelmeni glistening with butter to colourful trays of vareniki and the bustling energy of London food markets, our gallery captures the spirit of what Varenik&Pelmen is all about.
Our Food
Pelmeni — Handcrafted Meat Dumplings
Our pelmeni are a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. Plump, perfectly formed, and served with traditional accompaniments like sour cream, melted butter, and fresh dill, they look as good as they taste. From classic pork and beef to aromatic turkey and bold lamb and beef, each variety has its own visual character.
Vareniki — Colourful Sweet and Savoury Dumplings
Vareniki are among the most photogenic items on our menu. Savoury potato and cabbage vareniki are golden and comforting, while sweet cherry and strawberry vareniki burst with vibrant colour. Topped with sour cream, fried onions, or powdered sugar, they are a delight to photograph and to eat.
Bliny — Elegant Eastern European Pancakes
Our thin, delicate bliny are beautifully presented — rolled with their fillings and arranged to showcase the variety of ingredients. From the green of spinach and feta to the golden warmth of mushrooms and onion, bliny bring colour and elegance to any plate.
Syrniky — Golden Cottage Cheese Fritters
Syrniky are irresistibly photogenic — golden, round, and perfectly fried, served with gleaming honey, colourful jam, or a pristine dollop of white sour cream. Their simple beauty captures the essence of Eastern European comfort food.
Our Market Stalls
The Varenik&Pelmen Experience
Our gallery showcases the vibrant atmosphere of our market stalls — the colourful food displays, the engaged customers, and the energy of London’s food market scene. Each market brings its own character, and our stall brings warmth and colour to every venue.
