our recent dinner with friends at "mari vanna"in gramercy, last monday made me and askhad somewhat nostalgic about russia. the atmosphere in the restaurant was great. the interior is creative, with meticulous attention to details, and vintage- styled: peeled wallpapers, samovars, vintage pictures in old frames on the walls, valenki, newspapers from pre- and post soviet era, stacking dolls and russian books on shelves.
i loved everything there from design to attentive personnel and i was really glad that menu offered vegan and vegetarian options.
we were so nostalgic that right after we came from mari vanna we watched 'moskva slesam ne verit' (moscow doesn't believe in tears), movie of 1979, that i surprisingly never saw before.
we both enjoyed...
It was so good to see you two! I hope we meet up again soon.
