Experience MLYN's authentic Banosh — a traditional Hutsul dish from the Carpathian Mountains of Ukraine. This rich, creamy cornmeal porridge is slow-cooked to velvety perfection and served with savoury toppings. A rare and authentic Ukrainian delicacy available at our Corydon Avenue restaurant in Winnipeg.

Banosh is a treasured dish from the Hutsul people of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains — a rich, creamy cornmeal porridge traditionally cooked slowly in sour cream until it reaches a luscious, velvety consistency. At MLYN Ukrainian Restaurant, we bring this rare and authentic dish to Winnipeg, preparing it with the same care and reverence for tradition that has defined Hutsul cooking for generations.
Our Banosh is served with traditional accompaniments that complement the rich, creamy cornmeal base. It is a dish that few restaurants outside of Ukraine offer, making MLYN one of the rare places in Winnipeg — and indeed in Canada — where you can experience this authentic Carpathian delicacy. For lovers of Ukrainian cuisine looking to explore beyond the classics, our Banosh is an unforgettable experience.
