When in Russia, do as the Russians do…
Blinis and borscht - probably not the first things that spring to mind when considering an ethnic dining experience in Hong Kong. Secret is the food at Ivan The Kozak – an unassuming Russian/Ukrainian restaurant below the escalator on Cochrane Street - is surprisingly authentic and great value for money. Dressed in all the pomp of a countryside Dacha, the colourful restaurant serves down-home dishes such as Ukrainian-style Borscht, Beef Stroganoff, Chicken Kiev and Kolbasa sausages. Pleasantly prepared by native Eastern European chefs, the hearty fare is best accompanied by live folk music and over 20 varieties of imported vodka. With its quirky decorations, old-style cutlery and hand-painted murals, you’ll feel like you’re back in mother Russia in no time!
For just $150, you get a three-course set dinner comprising soup, main and dessert, washed down with the cocktail of your choice. But the fun doesn’t end there - after sundown, the bejewelled restaurant turns into a buoyant watering hole bursting with character, and characters. We recommend you don a fur coat and step into their sub-zero snowroom for a true education in swigging vodka. With six shots for $100, you can partake in the Ural’s #1 pastime and save a few precious Roubles at the same time.
