Muscovites can appear distant and serious, an often misunderstood cultural trait. Hospitality exists, but it is not as extroverted as in other cultures.

Young people, especially in the service sector, can speak English and be helpful.If you get past the initial barrier, people can be very hospitable.
The 'Moscow smile': Not smiling at strangers is the cultural norm.The language barrier is immense.Service can be abrupt and direct.

Tips for Gastronomy

Eat Georgian

Moscow is one of the best places in the world to try Georgian cuisine. Don't miss the 'khachapuri' (cheese bread) and 'khinkali' (dumplings).

The 'Business Lunch'

Between 12:00 and 16:00, most restaurants offer a 'бизнес-ланч' (menu of the day) at a very reduced price. It's the best way to try good restaurants without breaking the bank.

Don't miss the 'Pelmeni'

Try 'pelmeni' (Russian dumplings) and 'vareniki' (similar ones, often with sweet or vegetable fillings). There are places ('pelmennaya') specialized in them.
