Umyot Roadhouses (Cafe Umeta) is a typology book of a cafe in the village of Umet in Mordovia, located along the federal highway. The book tells about the place, the architectural features of the central strip of Russia and the culture of Russian entrepreneurship in a changing political and economic situation.

“… There are borderline places in which different realities meet. In roadside cafes, as a phenomenon, the indifference and infinity of the road combined with the solidity and warmth of the house. The village of Umet in Mordovia, with almost a hundred points of roadside catering, is a rare place where you can really feel it… ”- writes journalist and photographer Ilya Pilipenko in the introduction to the book.
