Moscow — Delhi Cafe
Just absolutely stunning teeny tiny place, it offers three tables so if you are looking for an intimate atmosphere it is your choice number one. It opens the door in the evening when it is high time to have a peaceful dinner. You can try a lot of meals from India as the cook there is Indian! Their desserts are of special taste.
The only thing to remember is booking in advance as the place is really small and really popular!

Though this cafe if not fully vegetarian its worth coming by. A great advantage of this place is that it is really authentic, non-touristy and very popular among locals. It’s not a restaurant here you will look through the menu and wait half-an-hour for a waiter. Being a self- service café, it attracts young fashionable Muscovites who like to be active and busy. Vegetarians will find a number of proper food and for sure stay pleased and happy with the atmosphere and hospitality of this unique place!
