Black Friday is behind us, which means it’s time to prepare for winter, which starts this Sunday. And although there is still critically little snow in Moscow, this does not prevent us from tuning into the festive mood. Moreover, the entire center of the capital is already decorated for X-Day. Therefore, we consider the marathon of watching New Year’s movies and eating tangerines as obvious.
However, there is still a month of deadlines, walks in the cold, delicious brunches and hot drinks before the holidays. We recommend that you postpone all urgent work until Monday and enjoy the December atmosphere.
So you have a vitality responsibility. And we have ideas on how to spend this time.
Party at the House of Culture
The legendary venue on Sretenka opened after the reboot. And with that came the return of the raucous parties held here on weekends. That’s why we welcome the updated “House of Cultures” in the traditional Friday DJ set. Andrey Panin, Sergey Sanchez and Chizh will take the stage this evening.

New breakfasts at Smoke BBQ
If you are one of those who have no reason to leave the house in the morning, this news is for you. Smoke BBQ on Trubnaya has updated its breakfast section. The new menu is based on the best farm produce, cooked in a wood-fired oven in French cast iron. Traditional “metropolitan” breakfast items have no place here. According to the chef’s special recipe, salmon was replaced by scallops, cheesecakes were replaced by cottage cheese casserole, and fried sausage was added to oatmeal. Overall a must visit place.

Updated menu at Semper
Moscow’s greenest restaurant has added more farm-grown vegetables to its new menu. Chef Kirill Makarov has collected the best ingredients and added a variety of new items to each section of the menu. There is creamy pumpkin soup and raw smoked duck pizza, ideal for the cold season.
Those who want to try the classics can order flank steak with pepper sauce and fries. However, if you want to try it, you can’t miss the duck with sauce made from chestnut puree and service fruit, a wild fruit with a sweet and slightly bitter taste.

Peking duck at Tokyo Sushi
One of the best things of December is Peking duck, which has started to appear on the menus of many restaurant projects. For example, in Tokyo Sushi, the duck melts in your mouth, it impresses with the richness of its taste, because it is marinated for a long time and absorbs every ingredient (and there are 10 of them!). Also Tokyo Sushi decided to surprise not only with hot items on the menu, but also with a rich cocktail menu. Talented chef-bartender Andrei Kobyakov has compiled a list of “especially desirable ones” that can warm, warm and even wake up butterflies in the stomach. No hibernation.
