Handmade Kitchen

This restaurant outside the walls of the old city of Riga has a very unique dining environment and vegetarian food. The dining is in a cellar, and each cellar has only four to five tables, which must be booked in advance. The entrance to the cellar is small and hidden. The cellar is illuminated by candlelight and oil lamps. The simple solid wood tables and chairs, the weak lights, reveal a sense of mystery, a bit like the scenes in the TV series Vampire Diaries.

Even the waiters are dressed in traditional costumes, and the wooden tables are illuminated by copper lanterns and candles. I have to admit that the special dining environment here can make people curious.

Now let&#39;s take a look at what local vegetarian dishes in Latvia are:

Three small plates were served for the first course, a can of black beans, a plate of cucumbers and tomatoes, and a small bowl of honey porridge

Eastern European cuisine advocates natural production methods, which is very different from the cooking methods of Asian cuisine. But when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Since you are traveling, you must try authentic local dishes.

The quality of honey in Latvia is very high. After the first course is served, the rich honey flavor lingers for a long time. The black beans are steamed and cooked, very powdery and fragrant, without any seasoning, but you can add some salt or pepper.

The main course is avocado and vegetable salad, which is good for weight loss and beauty, high in nutrition and low in calories, and very suitable for dinner.

The dessert is very special, it is air-dried apples topped with local fresh jam, sweet and sour, and it is the first time I have tried eating apples in this way.

The environment of the cellar restaurant is very special, and the food is also very local, but it may not be suitable for Asian tastes.

MUUSU is a restaurant in the old town of Riga. When eating at a restaurant in Riga, it is recommended to try their beer instead of wine. Latvia does not produce a lot of wine, but there are many flavors of beer. This is the first time I drink various beers in a wine glass in such a restaurant. Latvia has a long history of brewing and there are many breweries. The wine they produce amazes many wine tasters, and they use local fruits such as rhubarb, dandelion, birch, etc.

The layout of the restaurant is very reasonable, the dishes are very well cooked, the presentation is very creative, and the black round plates make the colors of the dishes stand out. The prices are very cheap.

The location is quite remote, and the purple sign is not very conspicuous. The environment is quite nice and interesting, and the boss lady is also very friendly. There is only one page of menu for lunch, and there are not many choices, about 1/3 of them are not available. The seafood rice is OK, the shrimp is big, and the seafood tastes good and fresh. But the price is a bit expensive compared to the portion, so it is not a good choice for those who only eat seafood rice.
