It's one of their centrally located shops, so would be handy, if you're looking for souvenirs. It might be quite pricy – from 20 to 100€ per piece, but those gorgeous colourful shawls would be a great gift both to your granny or a girlfriend.

Expiry date for most of products is not more than 5 days from the day of production and they do taste great. Fresh bread and milk shakes are also on offer, so the place could be a good option for getting a light snack on the go.

It is actually a great place for treasure hunting if you're in the mood for this kind of things, though it might be a bit difficult to find: from metro Udelnaya go to the right, cross the railways, then turn to the right and keep going as long as you can (there will be some crappy shoe/clothes kiosks, just ignore them)

Nice and not extremely expensive chocolates and sweets would make a good souvenir. Shops can be found around the most of metro stations. I recommend Osoby ("special") chocolate - plain one with a bit of salt, truffle-looking ones (Clown, Cosmicheskye etc) are lovely too

It can be recommended as a breakfast option or one of alternative concert spots, though do check the playbill first. They also organize board games nights (you can ask for games free of charge, while there during the day) and some art markets. Entrance to the evening/night events would cost 6-12€.

The Bottle is a renovated historical building situated on the New Holland Island dating from the 18th century. It's a nice and hipster place. On the first floor you will find good food, on the second - russian fashion brands that suit a variety of tastes and budgets and on the third you can get your nails done or attend yoga classes.
