Tabani bills itself as “a bar and bistro with Babushka’s twist." Cross-regional menu spanning Eastern Europe to the Caucasus, with five kinds of tabani -- they're in the blini family, but pliable, thinner, and often rolled with a filling. The smoked salmon one is a popular choice (68rmb). There's also borscht with proper bread (88rmb), goulash (88rmb), beef-stuffed peppers (88rmb), and Georgian badrijani -- fried eggplant rolls with a garlicky walnut paste (58rmb). At the bar: the standards (Negroni, Martini, Old Fashioned, 68–88rmb) alongside a few signature cocktails such as a smoky Sazerac (98rmb), yuzu Negroni (88rmb), and a truffle-oil martini served with two little spoons of caviar (108rmb). There’s also a martini cut with pickle-infused vodka (88rmb). Drinks menu includes zero-proof cocktails and a wine list that leans natural and organic Italian. It's a nice neighborhood spot with warm brick, big windows, leafy plants, unforced lighting. Makes for a nice date spot, especially on nights when they have live music. Set in Yongping Lane on Hengshan Lu, with a patio that actually earns its real estate.
