Russian Entertainment Nightlife

1. A Map

   White Horse

   • Volgograd, Russia
   • Entertainment › Russian

   One of several divey places which seems to be better for drinking than for eating (mains R200). Local rock bands play on Fridays and Saturdays.

   Taverna Kakadu

   • Abakan, Russia
   • Entertainment › Russian

   Small, dimly lit bar-restaurant with pirate-themed interior. There’s good Russian food but the place overheats even in winter. Cover charge R100 from 8pm.

   Troyka

   • Dubai, United Arab Emirates
   • Entertainment › Russian

   If you’re into Bob Fosse musical numbers (think Chicago and Sweet Charity ) , make a beeline to Troyka for an extraordinarily camp floor show by sequin-spangled Russian dancers who twirl, dip, and kick higher than a young Shirley Maclaine. In between, a three-piece house band plays mournful Russian ballads. Stunning. Scope the crowd for oligarchs ignoring the show. Come for dinner and make a night of it.
