Bochka

Bochka Review

One of Moscow's numerous round-the-clock restaurants, Bochka, opposite the Mezhdunarodnaya hotel, is a dependable place for good Russian food, even if the prices are somewhat high. It attracts its fair share of New Russians, businesspeople, and the after-rave set. If you're brave, turn up on Friday, when a giant spit is assembled for the roasting of wild game, including bulls and goats. If that doesn't appeal, the salads are all well worth a try, although the kholodets, a portion of meat served wobbling in its own jelly, may inspire doubt.
