WHERE TO EAT The best Pirog in the world (according to food experts)

"Stolle is all about pies, which is pretty clear from the spread of yummy-looking pastry concoctions that greet you as you walk in. Their many varieties of homemade pirog, from apricot to chocolate to cabbage and even rabbit (!) all go down a treat with a cup of coffee or two."

"15 places where you can eat 24/7 in downtown Moscow: Café Pushkin - Fancy yourself a Russian nobleman and try rasstegai pies!"

"Smoked Salmon Pirog - I expected that there would be layers of cream cheese, or even some sauce, at least five out of fifty for a pie - no, only crushed fish. Openwork, very tasty and without parmesan blizzard. Just a dream, not a dish!"

"Pirog with spinach - roll with centimeter layers of spinach, expressive, with perfect dough and a thin crust. Great!"

"Immediately you will find a cafe "Pirogovy Dvorik" that you want. It's a famous shop for Russian pie (Pirog). I ate breakfast with a lot of trains nearby, but I didn't care!"

"A cappucino and lemon pirog from Линдфорс (Lindfors), the wonderful pie-shop at the end of our block, have all managed to come together and keep me up with no wooziness at all well past ten-thirty local time."
