After Sat lecture, John was not included in Joanne and Sarah's ONLY girls outing. John was alone without Joanne for the very 1st time! As far as I can remember. So he asked me to do a little scouting with him around our area for some new eatery. And our little adventure lead us to these -





At 1st we thought it was not operating anymore because it was so quiet. We almost gave up until I notice a random green door that says open.





And yes, we were the only customers at the eatery. We felt kinda weird and suspicious about the place but hey.. that describes Moscow perfectly. In a lot of sense. It was a little awkward too.. only 2 guys having the WHOLE restaurant by themselves.

But it turn out to be quite a pleasant experience. We were the only customers so we were served VERY attentively. Something that is very much lacking in Moscow's services in every aspect. And i mean in EVERY aspect. Can't seem to stress this enough.



Here we were served like Kings.



We were crossing our fingers on the food.

..and it turned out quite decent!



I ordered Pork Shashlik. It The meat was so soft and tender and I could taste the good marination. It cost 260 rubs .. approx rm30. That's an alright price in Moscow's restaurant standard.



John ordered the lamb ribs. It wasn't as good as the shashlik imo but it's alright. Don't know how much is it but its approx around the price of the shashlik too.



The best part is..the manager insist a number of times we will have 10% discount the next time if we come back again! Now that's a rare statement here! Wonder if they can still recognise us then.

Rumours from some seniors says a sushi place at Arbat offers good discount at a specific day and
time.
So we looked up the world wide web and found their website. There's an English version to it but its not very updated concerning this offer. Good news is I've been there 2wice so this is how it goes.

Buy 1 free 1 on :
Fri & Sat 2300-0200
Other days 1500-1800

It's situated at the start of Old Arbat Street. The signboards are yellow and its called Eurasia. It's opposite of Aзия Кафе and Кофе Хауз. U can't miss it.



Rather small but nicely lit.




We were seated shortly after arriving.




Everyone practically ordered this cause obviously it's worth the rubles you're paying for.
It's their biggest serving.




While waiting for supper to be ready, we chatted, laughed and fooled around as usual.

No he's not drunk yet.




And so our meal arrived. It didn't take long.. which is a plus point. Got to understand that in Russia, waiters are often rude and service are slow.




More food is definitely aaawesome.




One down !





Taking advantage of the deal, we ordered more of course. Followed buy another round of cheesecakes.





Clover and BlurVodka came 30mins later and joined us.





We ate til 2.00am ++ that night.. all of us were bloated, thus satisfied.
Frankly, it wasn't the best sushi I've tasted.. but the companies that could make it there + the Buy 1 free 1 offer was simply awesome.

Definitely would go again after a stressful of never ending tests.
Moscowkien rates it at 8/10.
Go try it !
