Royal Hunt
The bounty of Murmansk's immense surrounding forests are grilled up at this hunting lodge style restaurant. Supplied by local hunters, the kitchens uses whatever is in season—deer, bear, salmon, moose, wild boar, and elk—and prepares them according to traditional Russian recipes. Local berries, like sea buckthorn, also find their way into many sauces and juices. Many of the animals on the menu also exist as trophies decorating the room, fitting relatively naturally into the wooden interior, which also displays old maps, hanging fruit, colored glass, and shelves of white porcelain. Service is well regarded and accompanying live music is common.
