Wine Terroirs: Zakuski and Vodka

Posted in Riomka, Wine Terroirs, vodka, zakuski on August 29, 2007 by accidentalrussophile

Bert at Wine Terroirs has another excellent Russocentric topic today – zakuski and vodka!

This story takes place in a small restaurant named рюмка (Riomka), on Trekhprudny pereulok, near mamonovskii and right under Tverskaya Boulevard in the heart of Moscow, south of the Mayakovskaya subway station.

Ah, yes – all the usual suspects are gathered at the scene of the crime. Vodka, zakuski, friends … and the unsuspecting Frenchman!

I am joking really, it sounds as though Bertrand Celce had a wonderful time (although I notice one of the photos is rather blurry – alcohol or art?) For all those interested in reading about his tasty zakuski experience, I suggest you hope over to Wine Terroirs for the article.

Of course, it isn’t as great as lemon-flavored samogon in Tokmok, but what is? Thankfully, Bert also has a nice little story about samogon.
