About Us
A seventeen year old Chicago landmark restaurant has not stopped impressing locals and international tourists alike. Located in the heart of Chicago's artistic district, Russian Tea Time reinvented nostalgic cuisine of the former Soviet Union. Its extensive, elaborate and very descriptive menu features excellent vegetarian fare, along with wild game, poultry and specialty meat dishes. A mix of "hearty" and "comfort" Russian, Slavic and Jewish classics is well complemented by upscale dishes of Imperial Russian Courts. Chef-Owner Klara Muchnik, originally from Uzbekistan, has successfully managed to infuse Central Asian flavors into the menu. Unforgettable are Tashkent Carrot Salad with coriander and garlic vinaigrette as is Mung Bean and Vegetable Stew.
