hat an ambiance of imperial intrigue and decadence in Ottawa at the Moscow Tea Room!
e tone of Imperial Russia made modern with an upscale menu and traditional award winning teas. All teas were organic except the award winning Black Jin Jun Mei. It was unclear whether it was grown by smaller farmer with no pesticides and not certi ed, but the taste pro le was terri c. Being concerned with health issues I only saw the disclaim- er at the end of the menu a er I put in my order.
I avoided the scones because whoever heard of scones in Moscow- the Jin Jun Mei tea came with a timer
and it was true to form with a slight maltiness and clean taste that paired wonderfully with the caviar and blini board. Perfect rounds
of blini with a selection of caviar com- plemented perfectly on my palate. Unfortunately, that menu item
is no longer available. ere is only
Acadian Premier Caviar, best Canadian Sturgeon Caviar, 30 g tin at $170-OUCH! Perhaps, the boards are interesting to try on the next adventure -Cheese, Charcuterie, Surf and Turf of the Chef ’s Choice.
