Dorogomilovsky Rynok
Outdoor / Flea / Green Markets, Krasnaya Presnya
Fodor's Review:
This large covered hall is beyond the outdoor Veshchevoy Rynok (literally, "Market of Things," which is certainly an apt name). Inside are rows of vendors hawking homemade cheese and milk products, honey, flowers, and produce of all kinds. Against one wall are sellers of pickled goods, an understandably popular form of food preparation in this land of long winters; you may want to sample some of their cabbage and carrot slaws, salted cucumbers, or spiced eggplant or garlic. Tasting is free, but it's unlikely that you'll leave here without buying something. Remember to bargain. In another corner are tables of freshly cut meat, plucked chickens, and fish. The squeamish may want to avert their eyes from the whole suckling pigs and the occasional hare or goat, beheaded and proudly strung up for inspection.
