Beijing "Lao Mo": Beijing's top Russian restaurant, experience authentic Russian cuisine

#Register for March Hotel Sleep Tester 2025 #BeijingTravel #Beijingfood #Russian Cuisine I suddenly wanted to go to Beijing to eat Western food. I suddenly found a recommended restaurant named "Russian Restaurant" on the official website of the Beijing Tourism Bureau. When I went near the restaurant, I saw the Soviet architecture named Beijing Exhibition Hall: giant stone pillars, with Russian spiers, were already easily reminiscent of Russian architecture from the 1950s. When you see "Moscow Restaurant 1954" at the door of the restaurant, you know you haven't gone to the wrong place. Old Beijingers will call this restaurant "Lao Mo" because it is opposite the newly opened "Little Mo", but the old restaurant seems to be superior in terms of style experience. The wait took about 30 minutes to get a seat: this was the first most authentic Russian restaurant built under the supervision of the Soviet government at the time after the founding of the country in 1949. It offers high-end authentic Russian cuisine throughout the menu, from large dishes in Russian cuisine, from caviar, salmon Bainik, to other classic dishes. Borscht is a must-try: perhaps too much more influenced than Hong Kong’s borscht, so exactly to call it back as beetroot soup, full of a light vegetable sweetness, is great as an appetizer. Also ordered a meat soup: this is worth ordering, because it is hard to imagine fresh beef dishes at the beginning and end of the dish, it turns out that the soup really tastes like beef. Then ordered the oven fish and can of stewed beef with white rice Cans of stewed fine beef with white rice is a dish that almost every table will be ordered: simply sour beef, but the soul is the potatoes inside, because it is really soft, and eat the sweetness of potatoes, with white rice to neutralize the rich flavor is excellent. In addition, the drink list includes a drink called black grate, which is actually a soft drink fermented from dark bread: this is really worth drinking, because it is very rare, the most important thing is to add ice is much more comfortable 👍🏻 There is a group of Russians playing ethnic music throughout the venue, which is great for those who have never been to Russia but are full of fantasies here. 💰Average consumption per person: about 200 RMB per person
