A great event for food lovers is coming up next weekend. The Russian Holiday Boutique at the Holy Virgin Protection Church in Nyack. If you’ve been to Nyack, you’ve seen that beautiful golden dome. Now the promises of what’s inside are not just intricate carvings and paintings inside the church — they are also delicious borscht, dumplings and pies.
