Country ambience, solid Ukrainian grub
Considering the large Ukrainian population in Toronto, there is a surprising lack of standout Ukrainian restaurants. Barrel House Korchma easily vaulted to the top spot when it opened last year. The ambience and cookery certainly merits this.
The food
What I like about Barrel House Korchma is that it goes beyond the common Eastern European fare of cabbage rolls, vareniki (dumplings), and sausages. But if you are looking for those, Barrel House Korchma does them well.
