"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."

"The entire menu at Stolle is excellent, but the pirozhki (savoury pies) are irresistible."

"The best pirozhki come from Stolle."

"The puff pastry-like crusts are beautifully decorated in floral patterns almost too pretty to cut into. Almost. Where to get it: Stolle Cafe."

"For lunch, I highly recommend Stolle. Here you can eat all sorts of kulebyaka: a rectangular pie filled with either sweet or salty ingredients. If you find choosing is difficult, simply order a few pieces."

"Returning to the city centre, we call in at Stolle, the best pirog (pie) shop in town. From savoury chicken and succulent salmon to sweet redcurrant and apple, the mouthwatering creations of this St Petersburg institution are a good advert for Russia’s sometimes-maligned cuisine."

on Pirog

"It is large, solid, nourishing. By eating a pirog, you forget the gastritis, the regimes or ungrateful love."

"As you can see from recipe, seledka pod shuboi is hearty meal, so first try a small piece, otherwise you will be full before desert (and we have very delicious sweets in Russia!). Best Place to Eat: café Stolle, Bolshaya Sadovaya, 3, str.1, Moscow, Russia."

on Shuba

"Stolle made pies that were out of this world. So, so good. Yet, I forgot to take a picture. I guess I was just too busy eating. As for desserts, they make sweet piroshki filled with fruit and of course the ever-popular poppy seed filling."

on Pirozhki

"This chain specialises in Ukrainian pies (Pirog). Pie is a very complex affair in Ukraine with a variety of vegetarian, meat, fish and fruit centres. Pie is a meal in itself. The fillings combine vegetables and meat and flavours."
