"If the city of Irkutsk is on your itinerary, Rassolnik is a homey, friendly restaurant serving traditional fare sourced from local farms. The restaurant takes its name from a barley, beef and pickle soup that it serves in a bread bowl — a warm, hearty respite from winter."

"Rassolnik (Irkutsk): we spent less than two days in Irkutsk, and came here twice. The food is incredibly good, and they use really high quality ingredients. Our favourites were the Rassolnik (Russian traditional soup), the duck, and most dishes from their ‘farm menu’."
