📍 Why This List? From Georgian cheese bread to Vietnamese fails, here’s my no-BS guide to eating in Novosibirsk—no fluff, just real ratings from a girl who prioritizes flavor over calories! 🍽️ The Good, The Bad & The Salty 🔥 Hits ✔ ШашлыкоFF (Shashlykoff) 🌟🌟🌟🌟✨ Drink: Шоколадная Пино Коллада (chocolate-pina colada hybrid, ₽300). Star: Grilled meats + potatoes (I’m a potato addict, sue me). ✔ Перчини (Galereya Mall 3F) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 3 visits, 0 regrets: Try anything with smoked cheese. ✔ Горячий Цех (Near Uni) 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Lunch set steal: Smoked chicken salad (зеленый салат...) + хачапури с копченым сыром (₽1200/set). ✔ Лента KFC (Dzerzhinskogo 2/2) 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Crispy wings > other branches. Fries = potato heaven. ✔ Ярче Hot Chocolate 🌟🌟🌟🌟✨ ₽60 magic: Not too sweet, hint of salt. Best cheap treat! ✔ Surf Coffee X Nsk Hot Dogs 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Uni-area king: Buttery bun, snappy sausage. 💣 Misses ❌ Phan Thiet (Center Market Vietnamese) 🌟🌟 Tom yum + rice = weird combo. Broth was bland. ❌ Center Market Fried Rice 🌟 “OMG bad”: Mushy, flavorless. Just don’t. ❌ На семи югах (Galereya 4F) 🌟✨ Pizza salt bomb (except 1st visit’s pie—RIP). ❌ Из Другого Теста 🌟🌟 Overpriced: 2-bite plov (₽800?!). Confused serving size. 💎 Hidden Gems ✔ Aiva (Near Uni) 🌟🌟🌟✨ Plov: Fragrant but price jumped to ₽400. ✔ Mystery Japanese Spot (Near Big Golden Apple) 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Sushi rolls: Fresh, but ₽2000/person. ✔ Georgian Fries 🌟🌟✨ Fun try, but saltier than the Dead Sea. 💡 Brutally Honest Tips ✔ Шашлыкофф Hack: Extra potato wedges (₽150). ✔ Galereya Mall: Перчини > На семи югах (trust me). ✔ Budget: ₽1000–2500/meal (hot dog → sushi splurge). #NovosibirskEats #NoSadPlov #PotatoGang
