Discover MLYN's authentic Salo — a cornerstone of Ukrainian culinary heritage. This traditional cured pork fatback is prepared in the time-honoured Ukrainian way and served as a cherished appetizer. Experience a true taste of Ukraine at our Corydon Avenue restaurant in Winnipeg.
Salo holds a special place in Ukrainian culture — it is more than just food, it is a symbol of Ukrainian identity and tradition. This cured pork fatback has been a staple of Ukrainian cuisine for centuries, enjoyed as an appetizer, a snack, or alongside bread and garlic. At MLYN Ukrainian Restaurant, we prepare our Salo using traditional curing methods that preserve the authentic flavour and texture.
Our Salo is served in the classic Ukrainian style, often accompanied by rye bread, garlic, and mustard. For those new to Ukrainian cuisine, Salo offers a unique and memorable introduction to the richness of Eastern European food traditions. For Ukrainian newcomers in Winnipeg, it is a comforting reminder of home. MLYN is one of the few restaurants in the city where you can enjoy properly prepared, authentic Salo.
