Let's be honest, Russia is hardly famed for its cuisine, nor for its service but this restaurant bucks the trend, bringing true Italian cuisine to Siberia. I visited on Valentines Day evening having been turned off by the music that was playing on repeat in my hotel restaurant and was not disappointed. I was greeted with a smile and shown... More

Desserts are...and, yes, again this word...perfect!

Some of the dishes had particularly unique touches which was fun but also... More
