We stopped suddenly on our way to Dupont Circle. We sat by the window and sat watching people. The place was Russian but fun. Saturday lunchtime was empty so we sat immediately and the service was efficient. I had a watermelon basil lemon juice. It’s okay, watermelon is more than lemon juice. My sister and I split Russian pie appitizer. They were very good, eggs were my least favorite, meat and mushrooms were my favorite. I chose Russian beef willow as my main course. It was served with small pickle kimchi (delicious) and quinoa (I thought it was disgusting, my sister liked it, but added a lot of salt and pepper). The Russian style was amazing. All in all, it was a great choice. I was glad we stopped!
