Katia Shepeliavaya
The two bars are located behind the Great Synagogue at Har Sinai Street and have the same owners but different frequenters – hipsters and those despising them. The place is really packed with moustache and ray bans but all these guys are united in their love for great music, drinks, generously poured arak and dancing till sunrise. Har HaBait now has a new Russia lounge opened by three Russian girls in the best traditions of Russian kitsch – pop music, borsch, vodka and herring – nostalgia for the country of their childhood.
