ExGingi's 3 generation wedding & Pesach trip to Russia.

[Dan]

What about nursing/pregnant fathers?


Oh. I forgot, this is Russia where they reject woke BS.

It's actually men's room and ladies' room, though I'm not sure how the images are supposed to depict that (especially if looked at independently from each other).

Bathrooms for people that wear angular lamp shades?

[Essen est zich]

Wouldn't it be called "uni-taz" in Russian?

Translating to bathroom.

[ExGingi]

So why the distinction regarding the angle?

Seems pretty simple to me, if I think like a Russian. One has a beer belly, and one is bigger on top.

Some food comments:

Russian (CY?) milk is definitely an acquired taste. I haven't acquired it yet. Milk in Moscow and in Lubavitch was different. Neither (in coffee) was appealing to my NY taste buds.

1st floor of Marina Roshcha Jewish Center houses the Eden dairy restaurant. If I needed to sum up my review in one word, it would be the now popular word DON'T!

I arrived there after everyone else. I saw some items on their plates and asked how they were. The response was "edible". After trying them I commented that a more accurate description would be "barely edible". Looking at the menu (Russian only, Google translate to the rescue where it was a little more descriptive) the only thing that I thought I might like was a Caprese salad. I would call it "decent". A better fresh mozzarella would have made it "good".

All kosher meat in Russia is Lubavitcher Shechita, and is relatively inexpensive. I probably ate more meat in the less than a week that I am here than I do in an entire year in NY.

On that note, I would comment that IMHO Putin's Ukraine special operation has a lot to do with keeping western woke ideas far from Russia.

People lining up for brochos from the sandek at a bris this morning.

Brochos being generously given to each and every one.

[ExGingi]

It's not about what you know, it's about who ate at your  Shabbos table when they were in 770.

(DS and SIL got into the mikvah an hour after closing time.)

Finally figured it out. It's a play on the museum logo. Still unsure how the male vs female thing works.

[ExGingi]

On that note. Rishon Cafe in the museum building is excellent. Everything was delicious, service is excellent. One of my kids started comparing the experiences. I said it is not a comparison at all. Eden is objectively bad. Rishon is objectively good. Not in the same universe. Though all portions are rather small.

[ExGingi]

I think that by the time my family was done they ran out of several dishes.

Hoping to visit those tomorrow (Tuesday).

Though I have a feeling I am missing something in your post. Might have gone straight over my head. @aygart had a good illustration for that, which I haven't seen in a while.

IIRC the Tucker was amazed by something in Russian supermarkets in his recent visit.

He was channeling his inner Yeltsin:
