Tucked away in one of the smaller formal halls of the hotel, the Janus restaurant makes a room with soaring ceilings and huge marble pillars feel small and intimate by employing casual tableware and flower arrangements and contrasting the grand Stalinist interior with understated upholestry. The menu mixes Russian and international cuisine with ease. If you want something Russian, there's no better place to start than with the Russian snack plate of pickles, salads and a shot of vodka.
