I have been writing my reviews for over 2 years now. I asked for your help in reviewing restaurants and adding new ones to my blog. There are, however, a few questions that I have not asked you yet:
Is there anything that I can do, in your opinion, to improve my reviews and help you in choosing a restaurant or a store to visit?
Is there any information that you would find helpful that I could add?
Do you like the way my website is organized? Could you suggest any improvements?
Do you have any information needs related to Russian food that are not yet fulfilled?
Please leave your feedback in comments to this post, or send me an email. Your help will be greatly appreciated and will help me to serve you better.
Not too long ago I was notified of a new internet Russian food store russianfooddirect.com
It has a great selection of all the necessities and more. The prices are reasonable, shipping is almost free or very discounted across the US. The categorization is great, it even features kosher and diet selections.
Another great Russian food store in Manhattan. Named after a TV-famous store, this one carries a broad selection of foods, drinks, herbs, and souvenirs. This store also delivers and caters around NY area.
Piroshky Bakery was recommended to me by a person who used to go to the same school as I did back in Russia. She currently lives in Seattle and says that Piroshky Bakery is her favorite food place. It has calming atmosphere and home-made tasting delights, it seems like the owners put their souls into this place. Piroshky Bakery has great reviews and a well-designed website: http://www.piroshkybakery.com/
… or Plov Uzbekskij. I found this great listing on Russian Yellow Pages about an Uzbek cook who makes and delivers real plov around Encino area in California. There are a few types of food he makes including Samarkand, Fergan, and Holiday plov, mashkichiri, samsa, and salad. He has reasonable prices per pound and free delivery. Unfortunately, he doesn’t deliver in my area but if anyone checks it out, please let me know how the experience was.
