it's now a half past the hour here in moscow you without saying a recap of the headlines colonel gadhafi refusing to give up power in libya and accuses osama bin ladin of inspiring the rebuttals about just struggling to control the capital tripoli and western areas of protesters are consolidating gangs in the east. we can expound on julian assange has dubbed the london court's decision to send him to sweden to stand trial on sexual assault charges and as quote a rubber stamping process itself said the ruling did not catch my surprise if you

will. and russia launches an ambitious mission to upgrade its economy over the next ten years pasco is planning to spend six hundred and fifty billion dollars on the project and. right now it might not risk goes all right here in the russian capital this week's moscow out is coming up next. forgets course as stroganoff i personally think that sushi is now one of the most popular dishes in the russian capital the months away but apart from so much it's

also another fostered al that's the same there isn't a restaurant in this city that doesn't serve japanese cuisine so join me on this week's moscow hours as we take a look at the sushi mania the second over the russian capital. to shift change of russia in the one nine hundred ninety s. it's difficult words pronounce the first verse muscovites are fascinated by the small rows of rice and roll fish today there are hundreds of sushi bars here and with russians becoming more knowledgeable about other cuisines thrown in with lower prices it seems sushi is available to sell the rest on easy unique cold totally uniquely japanese venue in moscow it was opened in april two thousand and eight and became one of the most popular japanese restaurants in moscow sushi is a very popular dish in moscow i think because. japanese cuisine is a very healthy cuisine this is the reason is that so it also offers various sushi

masa classes find out how the classic california and philadelphia rolls came to russia not from japan but from the us also in a city that is nowhere near the coast you might worry that anything regarding fish will not be fresh began a chef here tells us how the fish is flown in the same morning a shock frozen a technology that commits preservation. such fine dining restaurants pride themselves and strict control over. he quality in assisting in the use the best ingredients. as you can see here sushi truly is an art form wow take a look at this and this sushi place across a staggering three baptismal roubles was around one hundred dollars so i'm sure it tastes as good as it looks with its track. without any ginger salvador sort.

of wow. that is amazing that one of the head shots that i know moscow won't sell me but i actually so that's a sushi here in moscow than they do in tokyo i think every right. moving on to this week's and stay menus in the russian film starring the famous hollywood actress mia you've each has recently premiered in muster titles recruit tassy which translates as flourishes is romantic comedy about a groom being late to his wedding but what's unusual about this movie is that milosevic speaks russian to us have told us at the red carpet events the actress was seen giving interviews in english and in russian saying she's very proud of her roots. helen zille feels in some ways when the film producer timor

called me and offered to take part in the movie i was very afraid to speak russian and first said that i couldn't do it but then she called me again and said look it's accommodate the film you take only ten days and it's going to be very easy for you to just do it i agreed with you when i saw a month of scripts for my course in russian i was terrified. of. the visible contemporary art center there's an annual exhibition project names the best of russia. even says now and it's just playing with the fancy croft of the national contest claiming she faked all aspects of life in the country the russians hope this lands maybe twenty six thousand issues have been submitted to the contest and the jury has chosen three hundred and sixty five of the best flux should be on display until the trench if. a guy could see again so sushi mania in moscow was all about how much think it's driven by the women.

and obviously if. it's considered healthy it's considered a lot of you know because the role of diet should constantly on a diet or capes in the united states figures nice and trim and you know the thing that perceive it to be more healthier than you know maybe grilled meat a ruffian. and what we have in front of the say oh ok we've got to choose which is . i mean i thin lee slice the she needs form and we've got so with all of oil. you know a little bit of a cough cough soles this is a hand roll and you know it's with the nori filled with rice and you can basically top them with whatever you like like that search the ice cream for ice cream kind of sushi flight and i like it it's nice and i much prefer to eat it by the form of a roll now motto here is and you've known me long enough it's all about the quality of the product we search the best we bring the best in we buy the best you know from all around the world whether it's someone from a stranger all the old japan or oh the tuna from japan the crab comes from from

trout the wheat we buy the best over you know you pay for when you come here but it's the best quality and you don't think it's strange that you can get through she and it is highly and restaurants have a you can get it anywhere everywhere look you know that's a very specific ideas to the russian market and i think at the end of the day you know it's a good business into the russian market you need to just sort of for as much as you'd want put people warrant and at the end of the day for. on aids but sushi and i want to eat spaghetti afterwards in the fates i will hike so i bring it monday moscow yeah let me see yeah i'm allowed to drive absolutely afraid for my son right . moving on if you fancy a sushi lunch for buy and hold your pocket there are also democratic chains of sushi restaurants the pasha opened in two thousand and five another company buys dozens of restaurants in moscow as a kid his drug bills offer a so-called double menu one hospital sushi includes traditional japanese food while

the on a cold and sweet sushi features popular yorkie and i'm brushing dishes. there are also many sushi restaurants in moscow was going against traditional japanese and serious located in the popular tourist area hot global sushi is decorated with a c three furniture at the same time funky d.j.'s play the sets in bright neon lights are. listening to most chant this is an inversion capsule came in with grace and there isn't the choice of places to choose from our eyes it was a surprise that the most basic two things would be unusual interior design on the fact that the colors of the lighting change every fifteen minutes we can fight a special atmosphere each year you hold and act as if nothing. to doublecheck that you'll see she tissue is fresh there are many restaurants with open kitchens plaques that speak you also right in front of you in sushi because

you can witness the process and the food is placed on the plates of various colors which indicates the price introduce i'll just take your freshly made dish from the conveyor belt and enjoy. the funny there are several callers schools in the russian capital for various the sushi making classes in circle languages. if you can meet me at the masters for example because in japanese cuisine is suitable for both images and freshness to upgrade their skills and knowledge there are from five to ten people in the group i'm one lesson last about six hours. so sushi is all the rage in modern day moscow but why health crazy muscovites cost far less to influence the city's reinvention whatever the reason as well japanese people whom it seems this little fashion statement is here to stay.

a moving along to our next location is ripe for a real color larry question of sushi that much when i try and present yourself. the popularity of eating sushi in his restaurants did drop during the recent economic crisis but that didn't hold a new love affair with the secrecy of home sushi exploded and the next thing was that many muscovites started to creative at home yeah because if you do you're going to get kids who are shall continue years and over this period of time that has always been popular with the customers who provide good customer service you can get advice from cooking from our shop assistants and of course all products in the shop are fresh and of high quality. located in prospect near this story as the here for almost ten years and as you can see we've got a rather impressive selection of everything you would need to make sushi at home

whether it be ginger with or various sushi biggest and best of all the prices are really quite competitive the shrimp style selection is seventy five roubles that's just under three dollars so in this crazy couple full of sushi restaurants there's no excuse for that. today muscovites appetite for japanese food continues who enjoy outstanding growth and the cuisine seems slightly fishy cheater cade's a guy. it has now become as commonplace as a torch of peace a true sign of the multicultural metropolis that is most scared and i for one wonder what will be next. so also my firsthand experience let's hope that the sushi that i create a home will be a success unfortunately that's was how we have in this week's program and sushi mania here in the city council i'll see you again at the same time next week for more cultural tsunami goods and sell them for me and the rest of the team by.
