Moscow is... Places to visit. Part 1. TO EAT, 'Drova'

Another place to visit and to eat - the restaurant 'Drova' (means 'wood'). As cafe 'Mu-mu' it seems to be a moderate variant to pay, to eat at and to try the Russian cuisine.  Let's visit it!


The cafe  organized in the same way as 'Mu-mu' which seems to be comfortable enough. It is like a buffet, but not self-serviced, but 'the waiter's-service'.


Business lunch now is 200 rub, which is around 50 hkd, including soup, salad and main dish with potato, rice or steamed vegetables. All comes with tea.












Nice thing to try there - the menu of pancakes and vareniki. Vareniki is a type of 'dumpling', but with potato or berries with cottage cheese. Those who have seen 'Christmas Eve', the film made by the story of Nikholai Gogol, may remember the moment when the wizard in the village was eating vareniki just with his eyes (he made the vareniki jump first into sour cream and then to his mouth).

Hot pancakes with salmon - 230 rubles (56 hkd),
hot pancakes with red caviar - 280 rub (around 70 hkd),
vareniki with cherry - 200 rub (50 hkd),
vareniki with potato and mushrooms - 200 rub (50 hkd),

dumplings with salmon - 250 rub (around 60 hkd),
dumplings with 3 types of meat - 250 rub (around 60 hkd).

The bar menu is also full of variety, besides in Russia in the cafe and restaurants you may order some drinks as wine, alcoholic cocktails and even wiski.

But please better try some Russian national and popular drinks as cranberry mors (vitamin juice) or kvas.

Enjoy your meal!
Приятного аппетита!
