Balkan cuisine is not well represented in Moscow, but Yugos’ Serb-accented kitchen aims to put the former Yugoslavia back on the culinary map. The results are somewhat mixed: a platter of cold meats and cheese, served with piping hot buns, makes a great starter; a raft of grilled sausage outstays its welcome as a main course. But the real delight is the wine list. Montenegro, Bosnia, Macedonia & Co aren’t renowned wine producers in the west, but here they are well-represented – and often affordably priced by Moscow standards, with several bottles for less than 2000Rbl Pleasant surprises await.
