Worship at the throne of Teremok – the pancake or blini kings. Although it is strictly fast food, the blini are assembled as you order them and there is a wide variety including the Ilya Murometz, a popular concoction of boiled pork, mushrooms and cheese and the email (mushrooms in cream). They also do different porridge dishes, an awesome fish soup (ukha) and have beer on tap. There are many takeaway Teremok stands dotted around the city and a restaurant branch in Okhotny Ryad shopping centre opposite the Kremlin.
