Pelmeni are stuffed Russian dumplings (also called vareniky). Prague´s first pelmeni take-away counter, Pelmeňárna, is a small but cozy space on Štěpánská street.
The bite-sized doughy pockets sold here are filled with lamb, chicken, turkey, salmon, or, the house speciality, a mix of beef and pork -the Siberian.
Other are potato-and-onion-filled, mushroom; sweet pelemni like cherry or apricot-and-cheese are perfect for dessert. While you’re there try a fermented kvas, drink.
