That my friends is a deconstructed cabbage roll. Looks gross but tastes oh so good! This is one of the many authentic dishes you'll find at the Russian Tea House. You've already seen pictures of what the place looks like inside, now you get to see what they serve! Trust me, i'm not very adventurous when it comes to food, but this stuff is good!
This is a picture of goodness. This is a Piroshki. Alton Brown learned to make while visiting for his tv show. He wanted to share the recipe (of course with permission) but found out that it required a lot of steps. This isn't mass produced stuff people. This is handmade stuff, made everyday. Which explains why the Tea House is open from 11-3 during the week (except Mondays and the weekends).

When Jason and i walked into the Tea House, we saw a tray of these lovely chocolate chip, poppy seed rolls. Sounds odd, but is SOOOOO good. The size of the roll was just about the size of jason's head. No lie!
After eating all of the goodness we deposit our tray and garbage.
We head down the stairs, back into the complicated world.
