Bosco Café
Author: Anothertravelguide.com0 COMMENTS
Bosco Café is famous for its European Italian-style interior (coarse linen sofas, white tablecloths), the tastefully "designed" waiters, impressive price list and the view of the Red Square and Lenin's Mausoleum. A glass of the most ordinary and modest wine costs EUR 12. Housed in the GUM department store, jam-packed with luxury brands, Bosco Café is the ideal venue for enjoying the feel of an alternative, parallel Moscow: as you sit there, eating your elegantly plated rocket salad with prawns, a sprinkle of aged parmesan and tiny cherry tomatoes, listening to the piano playing by the glass wall of a fancy goods store and watching people - those passing by the window and the ones trying on elegant costumes -, you catch yourself wondering: is it Europe? Moscow? Or perhaps someplace else, some sort of a sweet hole somewhere in between? Then you dive back into GUM's warm passages where a woman in a stained apron is selling pirozhki (small pies) and morozhenoye (ice-cream) by a posh shop front. A mixture of fine perfume and sunflower oil - the totally organic bouquet of fragrances unique to Moscow. They serve one of the best espressos in the city, by the way.
