"Stolle is a popular chain of pie bakeries with branches in Russia, London and New York. Stolle’s “pirogi” are known for their beautiful decorative crusts and a variety of meat, fish, vegetable, cheese or fruit fillings. If eating at the restaurant (which serves an affordable selection of Russian dishes), skip straight to the sweet or savoury pie selection. Wash it down with tea served in traditional crystal drinking glasses, or a cold kvas — a refreshing fizzy drink made from fermented rye bread, with a light taste of molasses. While you’re at it, sign up for one of Stolle’s baking classes." - Daria Kyrilova
