If it's a real Russian atmosphere you're after, it's a real Russian atmosphere you'll get at Mari Vanna. Attention to detail in the interior - black-and-white photos from the past, a samovar and shiny polished crystal glasses in a grandmother's cupboard - adds to the retro Soviet look. When it comes to food, the secret ingredient is love. The caring Mari Vanna puts a lot of soul into the culinary treats she makes, as if cooking for her own grandchildren. The bulk of the menu consists of nourishing dishes for those who feel nostalgic about homemade food. There is, of course, borsch and all the other hearty Russian soups, as well as pelmeni, sausages, beef stroganoff and virtually every traditional Russian food you can imagine!
