俄罗斯目前投资了将近10亿卢布（1900万美元）给俄罗斯奥斯卡导演奖得主Nikita Mikhalkov发起的餐厅计划，目前俄正筹备建立本土快餐网，或可与西方快餐品牌一决高下。

据俄媒报道，此导演本周四会见了俄罗斯副总理达沃科维奇，得到了最初10亿卢布的70%的政府投资。

Mikhalkov also sent a letter to President Vladimir Putin asking him to support his patriotic project, which is called "Let’s eat at home!" In the letter, cited by Russian state media, Mikhalkov said the venture will create alternatives to western fast food.

Mikhalkov同时向总统佛拉基米尔?普京致信，请求他支持自己的爱国计划，项目名称是“在本国吃本国餐！”。据俄罗斯官媒报道，Mikhalkov在信中表示，这个项目能与西方快餐食品形成竞争。

The network of 41 restaurants and 91 food stands will use local products, which will boost Russian agriculture, the letter said. Roughly one-third of the menu will be feature local specialties.
