Taking meat seriously

Next time you are craving a burger, try Voronezh on Ulitsa Bolshaya Dmitrovka. A pared-back version of the eponymous restaurant opened last year by Alexander Rappoport, the lively café serves everything meat — from a pastrami sandwich to a deli steak. The special is the "Grand Burger," a 250-gram patty with bacon, caramelized onions and secret sauce (520 rubles).

Americano Black Coffee & Food

Americano Black Coffee & Food

Upscale pit stop by Patriarch's Ponds

Part of the Friends Forever café chain, the laboriously named Americano Black Coffee and Food serves up decadent desserts, salads, sandwiches and coffee in a hip, airy interior. Cool off with an iced coffee topped with a scoop of ice cream or indulge in their creamy blueberry cheesecake. It’s on the pricey side, but the slices of cake are big enough to share. Not that you?€™ll want to.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
