Parting thoughts on Moscow:
Best Pedestrian Street -- Ulitsa Stoleshnikov. Cute outdoor bars, upscale shops like Jimmy Choo!, great travel agent Intourist #11, Toni&Guy salon for beauty touch ups
Best Cafe -- The Coffee Bean, Tverskaya ul 10, big yet cozy, ornate cafe where they pour a great cup of coffee
Best Internet Cafe -- Netcity on Kamergersky
Best Restaurant Street -- Kamergersky outdoor restaurant row
Best Meal -- Pinocchio, Kamergersky per 5/7, great Italian meal complete with prosciutto and Melon!
Best Read -- The Exile www.exile.ru, more irreverent than the Village Voice. Great bar/rest guide!
Best Pop-up Summer Beer Garden -- Okhotmy Ryad, North Kremlin wall with great view!
Best Sights -- Outdoor: St. Basil's of course, Indoor: The Armoury in the Kremlin Palace
What I missed: Reportedly there is a KGB museum tour that you need 10 days advance request, and the Banya, Russian bath. Next trip!
