Noah's ark (Noyev Kovcheg)

9 Maly Ivanovsky Pereulok Cuisines: European, Arabic

About

The staff at Noah's Ark take responsibility for your pleasure during the several hours required for a meal here. Each course is discussed with the waiter before the order is made; and each must be accompanied by the appropriate spirit -- preferably Armenian brandy (which they call konyak). Nestled in one of the steep, zigzag lanes of the Ukrainian Quarter, the restaurant can be hard to find; however, it's worth the exploration of this quiet and oft-ignored neighborhood in Moscow's historic center. The atmosphere gets pretentious on weekend nights, as rich Armenian and Russian executives try to outdo each other by ordering the most expensive items on the menu. The meza, or appetizers, incorporate the spices and fruits of the Caucasus Mountain region, with an emphasis on cilantro, apricots, and pomegranates. The dolma, grape leaves stuffed with lamb and rice, are succulent. The plain roast lamb is better than the cubed version.
