Caviar for breakfast? “That’s the Russian treat we grew up with,” says Victoria Kamenny, owner of the new Russian grocery store Matryoshka. Named for the Russian nesting doll, Kamenny and her business partner Irina Voroybyeva conceived Matryoshka as a place for the local community to have access to the cuisine and ingredients of their native country — Russian-style salads, cabbage rolls and pastries are sold, along with “a lot of caviar.” “The closest (Russian) store was in the Detroit area. If you wanted your favorite kielbasa or cheese it was too long of a drive,” Kamenny, a former hairdresser, says. “We’re really busy and really tired, but it’s a happy tiredness!”
Open Monday 11am-6pm, Tuesday thru Friday 10am-8pm, Saturday 9am-6pm, and closed Sunday.
