Default Russian Tea Time

I have a friend visiting from NY and we decided to go to the Russian Tea Time for Lunch. I have not been there for a while, when we got there, at 12:00 fortunately we found a seat at the back, it was quite crowded already. Please do not except to get a big space while eating. I noticed the people sat next to us are having some red soup, I remembered that was my favorite, we found it on the menu: Hot Ukrainian Borscht. It has cabbage and tomato and potatos. very delicious, since I do not feel well these days with my throat, this is such a treat for me.

I have ordered
Classic Stuffed Cabbage Golubts

Two cabbage rolls stuffed with a traditional filling ‑ chopped beef and chicken, carrots, sautéed onions, touch of nutmeg and rice in tomato sauce. Served with kasha, carrot salad and sour cream…16.95

and my friend has ordered:

Chicken Kebob Shashlik

In Uzbekistan, there is a custom of special ritual-like preparation of marinades and cooking particularly with shashliks and rice pilaf. This tradition is continued with these white meat Kabobs. They are marinated then grilled to perfection. Served on a bed of rice, fresh onions, tomato sauce and tossed greens… 17.95

We both had a hearty and delicious lunch, the price is a little high, $27 each with tip and everything, no drinks. But it worth it.

Please visit Welcome to Russian Tea Time for more details.

Default Russia Tea Time Chicago

We've been there a couple times with little kids during the day, and although the place is crowded and there's little place to park a big stroller (or insert a high chair in the aisle), the staff was wonderful! I would not hesitate to take kids back there again except for the tight space.
