MASLENITSYA - Anceient Russian Holiday March 1, 2009

Celebrate with us one of the oldest holidays in Russia-Maslenitsa, dating back to the pagan times. With this celebration the people are letting the long-annoying winter out and the long-awaited spring in. Essential food for this holiday are blintzes or crepes, because they resemble the sun and beginning of spring. Blintzes are served hot with either butter, or sour cream, or caviar, or mushrooms, or sturgeon - to any exquisite taste.

The cost of this event including all you can eat blintzes with a variety of fillings - $25. Enjoy a traditional movie Snowmaiden at 5pm. Music and dancing at 6pm. LIVE BEAR PERFORMANCE followed by Russian fair.
