It's the one at the back in the Calgary Farmers Market food court that usually has the longest queue.. He also sells some really good blintzes and latkes.

You can eat-in or take out. They'll even re-use your styrofoam containers if you bring them back, next time you purchase there. It did good by me, considering it's the only place I've tried borscht.

Wed Sep 16 22:59:42 -0700 2009 5035945 26054 Jasz 2 5071122 I agree with maplesugar that homemade is best but to luckyphil, I found the borscht at Heritage Bakery on 37th.St. a very watered down version. Good borscht is a dark bright pink with lots of beets and other veggies and a nice sweetness, savory balance. Try the Russian deli by 14th.St. and 17th.Ave. S.W. Its a bit better . Sorry I grew up with homemade and haven't had many good restaurant borschts. I am going to try that Nicks at the farmers market. Sounds good!
