Eating Out
Edit ThisThe news images that portray Moscow as a place with nowhere to eat are far from being true. Moscow is being taken over by a new overwhelming wave of franchises, pizza bars, bar & grills, pasta restaurants, Irish pubs...However, if you want to taste genuine Russian cuisine there are plenty of fine places to indulge yourself.

Restaurant Prince Bagration
Edit ThisThis Georgian resturant offers a vast repast of traditional meats. Start with some smoked Georgian cheese. It's shaped like shoestrings and is quite elastic, but has an intense smokey flavor that provokes an apetite of Georgian proportions. Meat is the specialty. If you don't eat it, go elsewhere. Charming Georgian singers may be heard in the downstairs portion of the resturant on most evenings. Somewhat expensive if you take your time and order proper courses. If only I could tell you how to get there...locate it if you can. Worth the more..
