What?! You left that awesome magenta-colored cold beet soup off? That’s one of my favorite things to eat anywhere in the world! (N.B., you might have included it but I missed it because I don’t remember what it’s called.)

Chłodnik! You're right — favourite of mine. AFAIK a real Polish chłodnik isn’t made with beetroot though, but I'm damned if I remember what it *is* made with. Something white.

As I think I tweeted to you, the Polish word for pavement is chodnik, so at one dinner I inadvertently requested placement as my starter.
