From its commissary kitchen located in Taguig, Russian Doll Eats offers a unique and real taste of Russia via convenient delivery or pick-up. Where else can you find authentic Russian flavors in the metro? As diverse as the vast lands of Russia is its rich multicultural and multiethnic cuisine shaped by both geography and history, and Russian Doll Eats offers a tasty sampling packed and delivered to your doorstep. It was my first time to experience real Russian flavors, and an eager anticipation took over as I hurriedly opened the bag...
...revealing two packages from the kitchen of Russian Doll Eats. The first package featured a sampling from their line of packed meals and the other contained one of their specialties fresh off the smoker. Grilled, skewered and smoked meats play a major role in Russian cuisine and the packed meal offered a savory preview of authentic Russian cuisine by Russian Doll Eats.
The tray featured soft and fluffy long grain rice Pilof paired with Lamb and Beef Kebabs, Chicken Shashlyk and Katlets or pan-fried patties of minced pork meatballs for a savory trifecta. Kebabs and shashlyk or the Russian version of shish kebab are comfortingly familiar with many diners and Russian Doll Eats builds on this familiarity with their line of packed meals. The long grain rice brings a subtle yet flavorful richness with its medley of fresh carrots, seasonings and spice blend making it the perfect pairing with the grilled offerings from Russian Doll Eats.
The juicy Lamb & Beef Kebabs brings deep savory notes with each bite followed by multiple layers of flavors from its rich spice blend while the delicate hints of the Chicken Shashlyk are perfectly finished with mild smoky hints enhancing its flavors. The Katlets or minced pork patties offer comforting flavors with just a whisper of savory sweetness with each bite pairing well with a spoonful of the long grain Pilof. It's a solid meal in itself. The individually packed meals by Russian Doll Eats are also the perfect option for groups or business meetings.
The assortment of grilled meats paired with Pilof combine for a hearty meal offering a variety of savory notes in one dish. You may be wondering, what about the sauce?
That's where the Adjika comes in, a traditional Georgian dip made with fresh tomatoes, bell peppers and spices. The pepper-based sauce brings mildly sweet and smoky hints into play balanced by the tangy notes of fresh tomatoes to complement the various grilled meats from Russian Doll Eats. And you may want to order an extra jar. Trust me.
And that extra jar of Adjika comes in handy with the Smoked Chicken (P 480) of Russian Doll Eats. Smoked for hours with mahogany and apple wood, the Smoked Chicken with its deep golden bronze hues teases the eye before the palate...
...and that first slice of tender chicken breast romanced for hours by mahogany and apple wood smoke drapes the palate with a flavorful richness enhanced by a layer of rich smoky hints. Simply reheat the Smoked Chicken in the oven to warm it up and its ready for carving.
The flavors of the chicken are delicate and subtle allowing you to enjoy the clean flavors of the juicy meat followed by a burst of bold smoky notes. You can kick up the flavors with a dab of the Adjika for that sharp and pronounced tangy finish enhanced by even more smoky hints. It's a simple yet hearty and even nostalgic dish to add to your unique and memorable Russian feast by Russian Doll Eats at home.
