More information on HoteLux
Time stands still. The queues are long, the service is overworked and unfriendly but the vodka makes up for it all. In the HoteLux, the experience of having dinner in pre-perestroika Russia is as authentic as it can get. The incredient connecting all the dishes, from the Schaschlyk Tartastan to the Baltic Life plaice, is alcohol, in form of vodka. Vodka is the essence of the HoteLux. You have it before dinner, during dinner and after dinner. Actually entering the dinning section might take a while, you'll have to pass (and probably wait at) the bar. That time can be used to show solidarity with other members of the proletariat. Join them in collectively praising the 30 or so different vodka brands. Before getting too far into that part of the evening one should lay the right foundation for the dishes - no light, fat free cooking here. You can start with a Kievsky Bortsch made of beetroot, beef, bacon and vegetables. Bucharins favorite dish is a nice leg of duck, filled with sauerkraut and honey, served in an apple-ginger sauce. If you are able to eat more after that, try the Tambovski surpriz. It's not force yourself out of the red velvet seating after a three course dinner, but the bar waits, so it's off to work we go(Also see Bars)
