As an Englishman, I see it as my moral obligation to try out the English breakfast in any foreign restaurant I visit. In this fine establishment, I have encountered said meal and decided to try it out. Looking around, I had high hopes for it as the decor was stunning, full lush greenery and pleasant lighting. However, once it arrived I was instantaneously filled with great sorrow. It is with a heavy heart that I declare that, for once, a Moscow restaurant has not matched the high standards of always observed in Russia. The beans: didn’t have any sauce. For an unexplained reason there was a hamburger patty. The bacon: was as pink and raw looking as skin. The hash brown: was nowhere in sight. All in all, I hope my monarch forgives my sin of consuming said breakfast. To cap it all off the most common thing held in high regard by the British when looking for a fine establishment for dining, tea, has been greatly miss done. There were no spoons for sugar. But worst of all, Earl Grey tea has been put into a tea pot for green tea/gykura. My vast vocabulary capabilities fail me in conveying my disappointment in this matter. I strongly hope that the restaurant takes notice and rectifies their mistake post haste.Having said all that, the food was alright, the glasses and mugs were a bit peculiar but gave the restaurant a distinct edge, and the staff were pleasant enough(despite not wanting to iterate a meal for my vegan friend).

There is also a cat in the restaurant which is a huge plus for cat lovers. The service is also good. Our waiter was very energetic and was able to describe and suggest dishes to try. The average: The food though is pretty average. The only dish that I would certainly recommend is the mackerel rilletes. Good combination of fish and pickled vegetables. Everything else was so-so - not that it was bad, but for that price you can get much better food. For example, the duck - the actual meat was of very good quality, but it was prepared in a...
