Strogino is a remote residential neibourhood on the northwest end of Moscow, famous for its greenery, water space and barbecue. My good friends, photographers Anastasia Tsayder and Petr Antonov live here. The picture was taken from their balcony. Their place is known as 'photohostel' as many visiting photographers stay with them when they stop over in Moscow.
Strelka Bar is the social heart of Strelka Institute. The eclectic interior brings together art deco elements with Italian and Scandinavian design from the 1960s and ‘70s. Guests can choose from an extensive cocktail list and an international menu, that includes seasonal dishes and local ingredients. The summertime rooftop terrace overlooks the Moscow River, and kiosk in the courtyard offers street food menu. Every weekend bar hosts parties with a special music programme, from dj-sets to live performances. All profits from the bar support Strelka Institute.
Russia's oldest botanic garden was founded by Peter the Great in 1706 to grow medicinal plants. "Aptekarsky" means "apothecary" in Russian.
There are a lot of cafes and restaurants near the botanical garden.
Grill, bakery, bar.
Ovens, jospers and smokers — «Gorynich» bakes and fries in all possible ways. In the restaurant guests can try craft bread from our own bakery, Neapolitan pizza, steaks of our own ageing. And to enjoy the view of old Moscow boulevards through the big panoramic windows.
