Today we’re ready to offer you a rich variety of tastes and textures. To enjoy your food adventure please be hungry before the tour!
For the main course we’ll have palatable dishes from Uzbekistan (which was a part of the USSR) and Dagestan (region of Russia) such as pilaf and chudu (pie) with meat/cheese/greens and herbal tea.
Then we’ll proceed with traditional home-made Russian appetizers: pickled tomatoes, cucumbers, garlic, sauerkraut and you’ll get a secret Russian receipt to cure even the worst hangover ever.
If you’re brave enough and have no food restrictions you cannot skip lard. Your guide will explain to you the benefits of including this product into Russian diet. Now we’re ready to try red caviar, an absolute must while you’re in Moscow. If we’re lucky enough there’s chance to taste even black one!
Now comes the dessert time! Wow, what a bounty! Delicious Russian eco honey, farmer cheese, jams with original flavours, seasonal fruits, sweet pies and ancient Russian drink — Kvas (guess the main ingredient!). Yummy? Yes, and even more than that.

Ms. Jocelyn H. from New Zealand travelled on 24 Aug 2018:
The Eat Like a Russian tour surpassed our expectations. We were introduced to lots of different local foods and had opportunities for lots of tastings. Our guide was a perfect mix of knowledgeable, interested, interesting, personable and professional – she really added to the experience we had. We definitely didn’t need dinner after we had finished the tour – we were well sated.
