Delicious and almost free: where to grab a cheap snack at the RUSSIA EXPO
Hearty
belyashi for 30 rubles, pyshki donuts for 15 rubles and berry drinks for 5. If
you think that such prices are somewhere in the past, then the menu at the
Novo-Prostokvashino farm will definitely change your mind.
The City
Farm has been operating at VDNH for several years already. It was transformed
specially for the RUSSIA EXPO and now this space is called Novo-Prostokvashino.
The exposition "Eat Our Own" here is presented by the Ministry of
Agriculture, and therefore special attention is paid to food products.
At the
local street food court guests can try belyashi pastry with chicken or beef and
pork for 30 rubles, and for a dessert take pyshki with blueberry jam for 15
rubles or donuts for 10 rubles. The drinks include Ivan-chai tea and delicious
berry drinks for 5 rubles.
Besides, in Novo-Prostokvashino you can walk around the beautiful territory, go fishing and interact with animals, as well as take quests from the Ministry of Agriculture.
Guests of the International RUSSIA EXPO certainly won't stay hungry. In addition to a separate food hall "House of Russian Cuisine" almost every pavilion has a café where you can have a snack. Also, in Pavilion No. 51 daily tastings of dishes and drinks made from domestic products are held. A degustation will cost 150 rubles, but you need to sign up in advance: you can do it at the pavilion itself.
Professor, Honorary Research Fellow at the Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) in Bangladesh Mustafizur Rahman will be another international participant of the Open Dialogue.
On 28 August, the National Centre RUSSIA launched enrolment in the "Young Tour Guides School of Russia".
On 27 August, the National Centre RUSSIA hosted a panel discussion organised by the EISR titled "Knowledge about the Country’s Achievements: To Whom and How Should It Be Properly Communicated?".
