Column by Evgenia Milova about social life
[ad_1]
Last secular week was not boring, if only because the memes about Yevgeny Prigozhin were fresh and plentiful, and their analysis became the main topic of tar-currents. Otherwise, Moscow lived on cultural and gastronomic discoveries. The same is true of St. Petersburg, but here the Veter restaurant was opened, VK Fest was held, and a charity reception in the Hermitage rang with knightly armor. In accordance with the general idea of the Hermitage exhibition “Kings and Knights” that the real Middle Ages was quite different from the romanticized one, St. Petersburg appeared to the residents and guests idealized by white nights and the only absolutely accessible European city.
Listing in order, it should be said that the secular first was “Che? Kharcho! A veranda has opened in Boris Zarkov’s restaurant in Gorky Park. I have repeatedly mentioned that the post-February social life rests mainly on the enthusiasm of restaurant and construction holdings. However, you should be, like Mr. Zarkov, at the peak of secular form, so that the opening of not a whole restaurant, but only a veranda becomes a decent social gathering with the participation of Marina Rudneva, Polina Askeri, Irina Volskaya. The ambiguous sonority of the name of the institution was compensated by the speed of the carbohydrates served here: behind the grand pasties, the warring Polina Kitsenko and Ksenia Sobchak could not see each other.
The next issue of the secular week was just the same event from the world of development. MR Group invited guests to their place at Slava. The formal reason was the urban discussion, which was attended by Elizaveta Likhacheva, Sergey Kuznetsov, Alexander Tarabrin, Maria Chernyakova, and Vladimir Pozner was invited to moderate. Informal – to show the city and the world what a glorious area is obtained on the site of the watch factory, and promise to build a pedestrian bridge between the Tverskoy and Begovy districts for the next stage. I must say, the appearance of Mr. Pozner with a professional mission prompted busy people to come to this afternoon meeting: Andrei Sharonov, Vadim Dymov, Alexander Plutnik, Alena Doletskaya.
As part of the “For money – yes” program, Mrs. Sobchak not only opened a restaurant veranda with her partner Boris Zarkov in Moscow, but also participated in the opening of the Veter restaurant in St. Petersburg with her new partner Anton Pinsky. Fresh Veter is located at the fitness site at the landing stage “Flying Dutchman”. It was almost already called “Troika”, but somehow they forgot that a variety show restaurant with that name has been operating in St. Petersburg since 1978. Charles Aznavour called it “Moulin Rouge on the Neva”, and to this day they give a show program, as well as, for example, master classes in making pancakes and using tinctures and liqueurs. In general, no one dared to enter into a semantic conflict with such a respected institution. Mrs. Sobchak thanked Mr. Pinsky for “returning the girl to her hometown.” Denis Khimilyaine, Irina Oganova, Sergey Bugaev, Irina Tiusonina, Marina Zheleznova, Vlad Bumaga came to appreciate the breadth of this gesture. A couple of days later, speaking at VK Fest, Mr. Pinsky said that the success of the restaurant business is in honesty: “The consumer must see that everything is honest: the quality of products, creativity, price.” In general, VK Fest was as similar as possible to an economic forum for the beneficiaries of blogging businesses. It’s just that in the case of this forum, the business and entertainment components are the same thing. In any case, all the first persons of blogging were here, and none of them came just to have fun. In this regard, the Hermitage’s annual charity reception for patrons looked like a more relaxed event. The guests, among whom were Inna Bazhenova, Yulia Vizgalina, Mikhail Karisalov, Alexander Sokurov, Svetlana Khodchenkova and others, were the first to be lucky enough to see the exhibition “Kings and Knights”. Its narrative is that, on the wave of romanticism, the Russian tsars Paul I and Nicholas I were carried away by the Middle Ages, drawing texture on morals and etiquette mainly from the allegorical “Romance of the Rose”. Inheriting the traditions of the court, the organizers of the reception also reconstructed some of the songs, dances and fights. The latter, played out in the interiors of the Winter Palace, somehow again involuntarily returned to the topic of coups and memes about Yevgeny Prigozhin.
