Fave 5 Chinese Takeout or Eat-in

Druzhba

Druzhba

Join the Chinese clientele

This is a place for people who love authentic Chinese food. Most of the diners are Chinese, with the rest a very mixed bunch, from students to businessmen. The menu offers nearly 200 dishes from the north and south of China, and all are prepared quickly — within 10 minutes. Just keep in mind that the portions are big and their notion of spicy is very spicy.

Lucky Noodles

Lucky Noodles

Chinatown dive with great noodles

Step into the door of Lucky Noodles and walk into Chinatown. Folding chairs, a narrow countertop along the wall and a fridge — that's the total decor. But who cares? You get delicious Asian noodles and steamed buns. The portions are generous and the prices are affordable. The menu offers three types of noodles: chicken, beef and shrimp. Drinks: soda, Arizona iced tea, lychee and mango juices, and Lucky Buddha beer.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
