Strelka Moscow
Institute & bar where the trends live
Andrey from Moscow
This is one of the most trendy places in Moscow and is really lively in the summer season. i like the concept of the place - it combines the Strelka Institute that features programs and lectures about new technologies, urbanistics and design, and Strelka Bar that attracts hundreds of people to party in winter and even more in summer, when the huge inner yard is made public space.
What I adore in this place is that you can register on Facebook for a lecture in the evening. Afterwards you have a drink or snack in the bar and then the music starts!
Lectures are not the only thing to do: Strealka hosts the Beat Film Festival (documentary) and several fitness events in summer.
Their parties are very different too: I recommend you DJ team Deep Fried Friends who regularly do sets there. Summer night among nice people and with easy-listening music are the best. But beware of face control. The place is so popular that not everyone is allowed inside. But if you are casual and friendly - it's the way to go!
The cherry on top is the terrace on the top of the building. A few years ago it was a definite "must-go" and now it remains a nice place to visit. Having a drink with a perfect view on Moscow's biggest cathedral, the Red October hood and the Moskva river - priceless!

Seriously addictive pies
"Ludi Kak Ludi" in Moscow is my go-to place when I want good food at a super-cheap price. Protip: take your pie to-go in cute neighbourhood Kitay Gorod.

Fruits and Veges
Best falafel in town
"Fruits and Veges" restaurant in Moscow is a bit hidden, but their fresh falafel wrap, my favourite in the city, is well worth the effort!

Craft beer
"Howard Loves Craft" in Moscow is a small, cool new 'hipster' pub my doctor friend invited me to have a craft beer at. The rule: always trust doctors...

Sandwiches and posters
"Enthusiast" Moscow: a hip, relaxed cafe with the best sandwiches in town (seriously) and cider, decorated with witty, Soviet-era-like posters. I love it!

Bauman Garden
Perfect place for doing nothing
"Bauman Garden" is strategically located between two of my favorite neighborhoods in Moscow. It was recently renovated - there's always something going on.

Crabs, crabs, crabs

Ejeminutka
Cafe with hedgehogs
"Ejeminutka" Cafe in Moscow is not another cat cafe. It has hedgehogs! Yes, you read that right. Come later during the day and maybe you can even feed one!
