Okroshka at the Restaurant "Mindal"In the East, a simple secret has long been known: it is not the walls of houses or the shade of plane trees that help you endure the heat, but fresh greens on the table. Aromatic herbs, cucumbers, fermented dairy products — everything that gives a feeling of coolness even before the first sip.In the East, a simple secret has long been known: it is not the walls of houses or the shade of plane trees that help you endure the heat, but fresh greens on the table. Aromatic herbs, cucumbers, fermented dairy products — everything that gives a feeling of coolness even before the first sip. This summer, Chef Fuad Aliyev of Alexander Rappoport's restaurant "Mindal" turns to the traditions of South Azerbaijani cuisine and offers two of the best ways to greet a hot day — okroshka with kefir or with kvass. The first is soft, creamy, built around kefir, fresh herbs, and beef tongue. The second is more distinctive, with the recognizable bread-like freshness of kvass. Both feature radishes, cucumbers, egg, young potatoes, and that unmistakable taste of summer that needs no explanation. The okroshkas are served with creamy horseradish and mustard — for those who like to add a little character to the coolness. All that remains is to choose a table on the terrace, leave the rush behind, and dedicate an hour to pure enjoyment: Okroshka with kefir — 650 RUB Okroshka with kvass — 650 RUB To reserve a table, please call: +7 (495) 730-50-19 Address: Kievsky Railway Station Square, 2 (1st floor)
