To understand the Russian mentality, you need to see how such a big country has changed over the years. The best way to track these changes is to visit the local central market. Our food will tell you lots of stories about different cultures that created one united Russian nationality. Oh, the food! What would be better to explore in another country? You will have a chance to learn about the culinary traditions and to taste an authentic home-cooked meal. Have you ever heard the words “salo” or “kvas”? Your guide will explain everything.

Don’t eat too much at the market, because you’re also having dinner in a local home! This is a unique opportunity to help families support their kids and to learn more about the everyday life of normal citizens. It is our charity project that helps those who really need it. The host will share with you traditional recipes and may even teach you something.

We’re sure that this St. Petersburg food tour will be your best memory from your journey to Russia!
