Restaurants like Dzhey Hind, Darbars, Khajurao, Devi Cafe, Jagannath are some of the most popular Indian cuisine restaurants in the city.

“The Indian cuisine is very popular not only in Moscow but also in other cities of Russia. The spicy Indian food is very popular among all age groups of Russians,” Rameshwar Singh, President of Disha – a Russian-Indian friendship society in Moscow, told PTI.

“We attract people of all nationalities. Although we serve both Indian and Chinese food, the Indian food is the most popular among all the dishes.

Most of the items in our  menu can be served mild or spicy to suit the different taste buds of our multi-national clientele,” said an official of Devi Cafe restaurant.

“People in Russia like Indian cuisine. Around 60-70 per cent of guests, who come to our restaurant are Russians. Only 25-30 per cent are foreigners and Indians,” said a staff of another Indian restaurant.

According to various restaurant officials, the ambience of the joints too is created in a way that the customers get a feel of India.

While some of the eateries have a feel of fine dining, some provide an atmosphere of the Indian-style ‘dhaba’.

Most of the restaurants have bright interiors to go down well with the theme of India, which is usually symbolised with vibrant colours.

“I have been to Indian restaurants on quite a few occasions. Although the food is bit spicy, the taste is really good, especially of the fish and tandoori items. I generally visit with my family,” said Dmitri, a Russian who is a regular at Indian restaurants.

The most popular dishes in non-veg items are Mutton Hyderabadi (boneless pieces of lamb with green chatni cooked in Hyderabadi style), Mutton Jalfrezi (boneless pieces of lamb cooked in onion-cashew nut gravy with saffron), Murg Masala (chicken pieces cooked with onion-tomato gravy and served with boiled eggs).
