For so many people Russia and vodka are inseparable. The name of this country reminds me cold and dark winter nights and vodka many times.
This beverage has a very significant meaning in my life during an era. I consumed a lot, I liked a lot. So, when I was traveling to Kazan, vodka was already in my shopping list.
They were the biggest vodka sections that I've ever seen. We first visited a market near my hotel. My friends told me its prices were high and we went to Metro. I bought 3 small bottles of vodka. I haven’t taste them all yet.
What to buy: Vodka
What to pay: It differs

I am using this picture as my personal for a while. I loved it too much. I’ve seen on big billboards on the roads of Kazan. I didn’t understand what it was. A lady gave this chocolate as a present to some people at the very same day and the mystery solved. Then, I found it when I was shopping and bought some for my friends in Istanbul.
Everybody liked the chocolate and its package. One of my friends know Russian and she told us that the name of chocolate is Alenka and it is “Child chocolate”.
If you want to make people smile buy some of these as souvenir.
What to buy: Chocolate
What to pay: Not much

I was lucky to have a voluntary and local guide at my first day in Kazan. Actually she wasn’t a real guide; she was a local and a friend of a friend. She offered me to show Kremlin at night. Also took me to some shopping centers to show me the local products of Tatarstan.
Chak-chak (or chek chek) is one of these products. It seems like a cracker. She told me that it is sweet because of honey. I’ve read that it is served with tea here. I couldn’t taste it but my guide told me that if Tatars travel to somewhere, they must take some chak-chak as a gift for the people they visit. You can find chak chak in packages in the markets.
Also I found a recipe for it in this link.
What to buy: Chak-chak
What to pay: Not too much
