Boon by Moldova (CLOSED)

Boon by Moldova is a fairly large restaurant in Sunnyside. On the Sunday I visited at some point later in the evening there was live Moldovan singing on the dancefloor. The humble mămăligă might be the most representative dish of Moldova. They’re balls of polenta which sounds unexciting-- in fact, all of the food sounds quite simple but the presentation and execution of all of the food is very refined and sets Boon apart from typical Eastern European restaurants. Also excellent; beef meatballs called pârjoale “Moldova” and the sour soup called ciorbă.
