I recently visited Moscow and had the opportunity to check out the city’s current hip and happening places. Where to see and be seen in Moscow is constantly changing and what was hot last month may be cold this month.
This month, I recommend trying the sushi at the uber trendy Nadalny Vostok (Not that Far East) Restaurant. Not that I don’t love Pelmeni and Borscht, but the sushi was fantastic and such a refreshing change from traditional Russian food. My colleague had steak and loved it, while another in our group ordered pasta. The menu is vast and a little expensive, but isn’t everything in Moscow?
After sushi, head over to the Ritz Carlton’s rooftop 02 Lounge for cocktails. While sipping your gin and tonic or Russian pivo (beer), you can enjoy panoramic views over Red Square and the Kremlin. I walked into the lounge and I thought I had stepped onto another planet. The spherical chairs lining the windows and the white leather couches create an “out of this world” ambience. Check it out under dining.
If you’re not into the five-star hotel lounge scene, go to Simachev Bar. This is designer Denis Simachev’s latest venture and you can walk to it from anywhere in the center of the city. I won’t ruin it by giving too many details, but let’s just say that the controversial décor and unique furnishings are a must-see. I had a very tasty berry mojito and was pleased to see that they have a full menu of light fare including salads and pizzas at very reasonable prices. The music was fun and the people were friendly and casual.
