Russian Vodka Room No.1

Russian Vodka Room No. 1 is the first place in St. Petersburg to present Russian cuisine from different historical periods. Here, you can try pre-Petrine dishes such as oven-cooked buckwheat porridge with chicken hearts and porcini mushrooms, and dishes of the merchant and aristocratic classes such as pike perch rissole with mashed potato, as well as Soviet cuisine such as chicken Kiev or Russian salad. The restaurant’s premises comprise two spacious rooms with a capacity of 160. The neighboring rooms house the Museum of Russian Vodka, which presents fascinating exhibits dating back to the appearance of vodka culture in Russia and running right through to the present day. The restaurant also has a “rumochnaya” (a “standing-room-only” cafe) decorated in the 20th-century style where you can sample a variety of vodkas with traditional Russian “zakuski” snacks. Business lunch menu from midday to 4 p.m.
Autumn special offer: Nizhny Novgorod saffron milk cap with onion, sour cream and flavored butter; traditional Russian Okroshka prepared from refreshening kvas with tongue and homemade cold baked pork.
