chuddy1999 28 reviews

This is quite a big building and covers 3 floors filled with a wide range of outlets offering almost every product under the sun you would care to mention. Also there is a currency exchange booth here as well. Down on the ground floor can be found a small cafe offering quite excellent food and drink with a selection of puddings as well ;-)

What to buy: Anything and Everything, All tastes catered for across all three floors

What to pay: look around the prices vary between outlets within the main building

3.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

chuddy1999 28 reviews

There are more and more western style shops for purchasing food now, where you simply grab a basket and tour the shop selecting your food. Then take it to the check out. No more is it required for you to remember the names, prices and quanity of the items you require, so that you may pay for them first. For people just learning russian or with no knowledge of russian at all . This believe me is a godsend and can save you from starving. LOL. Of course there are still plenty of the more normal shops around as well should you fancy practicing your memory and word skills.
