Have you ever experienced the atmosphere of something that has been forgotten for ages and then rose from the ashes again?
If you have already read an article about the Russian Vodka Museum, you just have to open the door and go to the next hall. If not, walk down the picturesque Konnogvardeysky Boulevard (check my article), stop near house number 4, the entrance to the restaurant Russian Vodka Room no.1.
Do you want to know more about the original Russian cuisine? You are at the right place! Russian Vodka Room no.1 will take you back to the 19th century like a time machine, when the decline of the Russian Empire was getting closer, but the locals still liked to eat caviar, pancakes, pelmeni, and drink homemade beverages…
Nowadays, this spot is the best one for those who like to combine their gourmet and cultural experiences. Fish from Russian lakes and seas, meat from Russian farmers, even vegetarians would find suitable dishes. There’s also homemade alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks following recipes of those forgotten times. They make me think of St. Petersburg’s city legends…
It’s a suitable place for a romantic evening, as well as for family dinners and business lunches. Once the King of Iceland visited this place while walking around the city center of magnificent St. Petersburg. But that is another story and shall be told another time.
