Since the spring 2009 Kalku Varti restaurant has been given a brand new look, in which Nordic light-beige colours prevail. An ornamental charm has been created by means of Latvian ethnographic pattern, derived from a lace coverlet needle-pointed in 1895 in Bebrene parish. Columns in the restaurant resemble supports of a house porch, while chandeliers are reminiscent of a modern variation of Latvian puzuri (compositions made from straws). The entire interior, including furniture and decorative elements, has been produced in Latvia.
However, what would an interior be with no appropriate menu? Special attention has been paid to this in Kalku Varti — the Chef has created an intriguing offer — contemporary Latvian cuisine. The menu is based on local products: treasures from Latvian forests and produce from local farmers and organic farms. Depending on the season, the menu includes, for example, watercress sauce and broad beans beloved by Latvians. Have you ever tasted rowanberry ice-cream and sea-buckthorn jelly?
