This past August 2nd we celebrated our 5 year anniversary. Can y'all believe that it's been 5 years already? It honestly feels like just yesterday I was walking down the aisle.
At Turandot - our table on the balcony of the 2nd floor
The detailing in this place was amazing!
Cameron took me to a very elegant new restaurant in Moscow, Turandot. Many foodies and critics have described this place and can do so much better than me. Here is a quick excerpt:
"The Turandot Restaurant is an establishment beyond the scope of definition “restaurant”, it’s a true luxury palace, all the interiors of which are hand-made. Here is the tinsel, the antiques, the majestic chandelier of Malaysian crystal with unique lightning, acting fireplaces, tapestries – and everything is genuine! The details of interior have been made for 6 years! Two workshops of wood-carvers, artists, sculptors have worked at them without a break.
The restaurant has got 14 halls of 20 thousand sq. m. The tables boast china-ware – the XVIII century original copies. Three dozens of steps, winter gardens, frescos, pictures, silk carpets, vase collection of Min dynasty era. In the center – there’s a round hall with colonnade. Under a huge tree of bronze there’s a turning podium for an orchestra. Above it all there’s a mechanical peacock able to whirl and to flop, a grotesque hi-tech copy of the Hermitage statue in St. Petersburg."
And a quick link to one of the write-ups...
