April 3, 2023 - Lunched on Chinese

 On April 3, 2023, chased some errors errands of no consequence and lunched on some local rendition of Chinese, ordered and was served a bowl of beef noodle soup, a plate of Singaporean noodles and a pot of green tea.

The venue was Tam Em, a small Chinese place at certain location in Moscow.

A dish of Singaporean rice noodle with chicken or maybe it was pork, I forget already since it wasn't today.

Noodle dish x 2 and a pot of green tea - quite filling.

A beef noodle soup, also with some Chinese mushrooms I think it was.

Portions are quite big, 400 and 500 gr

Interior - a small place, one up, one down.

Menu in Russian

Think I'll be seeing the inside of this place again quite soon, when I get my next Chinese urge.

Downtown Moscow At Night

Some pictures from about a week ago, I think it was.

The destination is a Chinese food restaurant called (in translation) Chinese News.

It's on the New Arbat where we frequently are.

It was when we actually went to this restaurant and where I specifically had a Beijing Opera cocktail and a Peking Duck dish, very tasty too.

On entering you are greeted by a replica Terracotta Soldier.

Beijing Opera cocktail, for more follow the link.

Chinese news.

Общепит: Китайские новости:  Китайские новости... ... в смысле ресторан "Китайские Новости" Да, это на Новом Арбате, часто мимо него хожу. А иногда даже заход...

Beijing Opera and Peking Duck

 In my restaurants today: a Beijing Opera cocktail and Peking Duck.

Beijing Opera cocktail, it's rum based, tasty but one isn't enough for much effect, just a hint of something pleasant.

And half a Peking Duck with garnishes and pancakes.

My Chinese restaurant going disguise.

Not much info online about a cocktail called Beijing Opera, could be some new creation by the restaurant so here is composition.

And like I said it's rum based but better drunk in multiples for it to really work, at least three to five per Hemingway.

 

Hello! Which'd you get ... the palm or the fist.

 Choose wisely.

Here at Moscow's Kitaiskie Novosti (aka Chinese News) restaurant.

Today's Outing: Still Peacoat Season

 Today's outing: the pea coat season is still going on but spring is in the air.

Some bite to eat.

I ate it all!

Although it took quite some time - little by little, pick by pick, you know.

Flied lice was pretty good ).

From the peas back to the pea coat.

The pea coat is a Banana Republic thing, not current, from about two years back, on the tag it says Melton wool, on the label, Fabric by Mario Berlucci for BR, that's all I know.
