What would you say is the best way to prepare for visiting a Russian restaurant for the first time? Any tips on what to order?

Definitely start with some appetizers like blini or herring under a fur coat. And don’t forget to try kvass!

Hi Nikita and Tatiana,
Your suggestions are spot on! When visiting a Russian restaurant for the first time, I recommend trying a variety of appetizers and perhaps a traditional main course like beef stroganoff or chicken kiev. Pairing your meal with traditional drinks like kvass or kompot can enrich your experience. Don’t hesitate to ask the staff for recommendations—they can guide you on the best dishes to try!

These tips are great! I’m looking forward to my first experience. Is it common to share dishes or should I order individual meals?

Thank you all for the wonderful discussion!
To wrap things up, sharing dishes is quite common in Russian dining culture, so feel free to order a variety and enjoy them together. I appreciate everyone's participation, and if you have more questions or want to discuss future events, please keep the conversation going.
