Actually, I have no ideas why you are praising the cafe. It's empty, and expensive. I often dining at Tourandot (Турандот, Tverskoy Blvd, 26/5), and my bill is around 1000 roubles: - vegetarian soup 250 rub - hot salad 350 rub - whiskey 220 rub - tea 120 rub
Which one you prefer? My opinion - prices in Buddies are overpriced. Totally. They should be 3 times cheaper at least. Then they might have a success in a student niche - that's exactly how they look and service. Well, a spoon of honey, food there is ok. I liked the design of spring rolls and they tested good as well.
