The East Village knows Europe, all right: from German (Zum
Schneider) to Ukranian (Veselka) to Russian (Odessa )—hell, it’s even got an E.U. Now
arriving at Gate 3: homey Serbian joint Kafana. Hearty apps (feta-filled phyllo
pastries) and mains (lamb-and-spinach stews) are but distractions to the main
draw: a spectacularly pork-intensive menu that makes David Chang and Mario
Batali looks like flextarians. Think pork chop, smoked pork loin, schnitzel
with ham, and bacon-rolled-whatnots (prunes, chicken liver). Our arteries just got clogged writing that.
