The FAB’aholic restaurant

SMEG news: The FAB’aholic restaurant

A red FAB28 was requested to complete the interior decoration of Cherdak, a renowned restaurant owned by the chef Arkady Novikov, a popular figure with high society Muscovites. Located on the top floor of one of the most antique palaces of the Meshchansky district, a prestigious area that is also home to the headquarters of a number of different government agencies as well as the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. The restaurant has an original décor that is characterised by a style that unites elements of the traditional Russian dacia with pieces of vintage design. The menu is well researched, and the restaurant welcomes all of its clients into a “fairytale” setting that at the same time has an “alternative” atmosphere in which the unmistakable FAB stands out.

The decoration chosen by this new and exclusive location strengthens and encourages a shared attitude, upheld by local and International celebrities, who, in order to give an ulterior character and style to the interior décor of their homes they choose Smeg 50’s Retro Style appliances.
