What the creator captured
Only Scrans visited the Ukrainian Sunflower Cafe in Lichfield to experience authentic, homemade comfort food crafted by refugees who fled the war. Jono was particularly moved by the heartwarming story of how the local community welcomed the owners and how their traditional pelmeni and potato pancakes provide a 'piece of home' in England. He concluded that the smoky solyanka and fresh dumplings offered unadulterated comfort, even helping him overcome his long-standing dislike of mushrooms.
