Da’an District, Taipei City｜Russian Castle Restaurant

I recently visited the Russian Castle and I must say it was an amazing experience. The décor was beautiful, it was very authentic Russian style The menu was diverse, and I was impressed by the authenticity of the dishes. I ordered the borscht soup and pelmeni, which were both prepared to perfection. The flavors were bold and savory, and I could tell that the ingredients were fresh and of high quality. Kvas was so tasty🔥

Some flavors in the restaurants are very unique. If you are looking for a new place to chat and enjoy some foreign cuisine, this is definitely the place to consider. We got the sour cream chicken and roasted apple chicken. I’d recommend getting the roasted apple chicken more for its new flavors, especially if you’re someone who enjoy sweet-and-salty combos. Even though the sour cream chicken wasn’t bad, it wasn’t too out-of-the-ordinary, so wouldn’t recommend going with it as your first time here. The desserts here are really delicious. Their sour cream pancakes are really delicious - eat it when it arrives so the filling stays cold enough! It contrasts well with the exterior pancake. The apple blinis is quite refreshing, so also recommend ordering this! Its crepe is quite hot and melts the ice cream really fast, so do also eat this when it arrives! Overall this is a restaurant with unique flavors, and even though the portions aren’t enormous, it’s still filling and I’d recommend to anyone who wants to try something new.
