bruschettas and salads. At first glance, the place seems to consist of one long table, but there
is more seating downstairs. Takeaway is available.
MIDDLE EASTERN
SHAWARMA REPUBLIC
If only the Middle East was like the menu of this funky shawarma shop, where 'Lebanese',
'Syrian' and 'Israeli' shawarma peacefully coexist. Authenticity is beyond the point - the
owners have devised their own style, whereby shawarmas look like geometrically impec-
cable cylinders filled with falafel, meat, salad and pickles. It's located right at the entrance to
Hermitage Garden.
Ideal for lunch on a park bench.
VEGETARIAN
FRESH
11am-11pm; ; Teatralnaya)
Fresh out of Canada, this is the kind of vegetarian restaurant that people pour into- not for
lifestyle reasons, but because the modern, post-ethnic food and the escapist ambience are ac-
tually great. Definitely go for the smoothies. Vegans and rawists will not feel neglected.
DELI
ANDERSON
9am-11pm;
;
Pushkinskaya)
This sweet, child-friendly deli serves salads, soups, and cakes, as well as smoothies and
lemonades. The honey latte might be a little too experimental, but the tea with raspberry
puree and sage is quite exceptional.
INTERNATIONAL
DARY PRIRODY
This trailer permanently stationed in Hermitage Gardens contains a kitchen run by people on
a mission to transform Moscow's culinary scene, churning out all kinds of international
foods from burgers to Asian noodles (but only a few at a time - the menu changes weekly).
You can eat at a stand-up table by the trailer or find a suitable bench in the park.
