The cuisine draws on Russian classics — fish, game, grains and fermented foods — reinterpreting each dish. Peremena serves forshmak and pickles, pies and blini, pelmeni and vareniki. Main courses include Pozharsky cutlets and slow-cooked beef ribs. Soups include borscht and salmon and pike perch ukha. Caviar always comes with blini. Breakfast features draniki and syrniki.
