Добрый день ladies and gentlemen!
here’s the final chapter of my journey to moscow. i used my last day there to chill a bit with my girl and enjoy our great talks and wonderful moments while exploring the culinary offerings of russia…
we thought the moscow metro could use some happiness…
…our first point of program that day then took us to the university where ms hearts is doing her exchange semester at the moment. from the metro to the university we had to take a …well i guess it is supposed to be some kind of “bus” :)… apparently they actually use this thing to transport people…
…and that’s the feeling you get sitting in there…
…the university is an immensely huge complex combining lecture halls, shops, restaurants, dorm rooms and other university facilities in one building. it’s one of the rather impressive “seven sisters” built by lenin…
…after meeting some of my girls new friends we decided to go back to the city center…
…where we went to moscow’s most famous coffeeshop the “cafe pushkin” (http://www.cafe-pushkin.ru/en)…
…this cafe will definitely go on my recommendations list for moscow. the pastries and drinks we ordered were delicious, the waiters nice, helpful and bilingual and also the location looked fantastic…
…unfortunately hours go by like seconds when you’re having a great time…
…we ordered pancakes with berries and the housemade desert named after the cafe…
…and also the coffee was prepared with a lot of love for details…
…all in all not cheap but definitely worth every rubel…
…as it was our last evening together for a while we decided to go to a really nice and fancy restaurant some of the locals recommended to us – the white rabbit (http://www.whiterabbitmoscow.com)…
…this literally high end place is located on the top floor of a skyscraper in the heart of moscow, delighting its guests with this amazing view…
…a very special evening with a very special girl…
…or maybe she’s a cat…
…anyways she’s adorable. after time went by way to fast again the food arrived and again we were delighted. we had carpaccio as a starter and while the lady went with rabbit mini cabbage rolls in foie gras sauce with potato crisps and truffle…
…i ordered a sea bass with grilled vegetables. to drink we had a very nice vine from italy by “tiefenbrunner”. from the culinary pleasures of the incredibly delicious food, to amazing talks in a very tasteful ambiance and lots of fun and wonderful moments with my girl this turned out to be the perfect evening/night…
…unfortunately it was also my last evening in moscow and hence also with my girl for a while. but like a very wise person once said “it’s not goodbye, it’s i’ll see you soon my love”.
i’ll be back with new trips and adventures soon. big promise.
stay awesome – xoxo
