Oracle of the Bottle
Sredny Ovchinnikovsky pereulok, 1, building 13
Moscow Russia
The decor is based on Francois Rabelais' "Oracle of the Bottle" (Oracle of the Divine Bottle in Russian translation): simple, yet very solid furniture, rough walls, large beams across the ceiling. Menu extensively quotes Rabelais in Russian (for those not familiar with the book, small type underneath provides a regular description). True to the spirit of the book, the selection of food is ismple, yet solid. Bar has a selection of authentic Georgian wines. Live music in the evening is quite modern and has little to do with the Rabelaisian times. Expect to spend $20 per person for dinner with Georgian wine.
