The resort became a place where professionals and connoisseurs meet. For example, in the beginning of March a gastronomical festival IKRA was held here. Among the events of the festival there were master classes and special menu from the best chiefs of the world, and several Russian chiefs. On the photo you can see Massimo Bottura, the best chief according to The World's 50 Best Restaurants (among this title, he owns three Michelin stars as well). Apart from lectures and fantastic dinners, festival welcomed the guests with day time parties and hot cocktails in the mountains. So, to conclude, Rosa Khutor is also worth visiting to meet those who share your idea and vision of the amazing. Check the schedule for the upcoming events!

Après-ski Bar is situated on the height of 940 meters, next to the Sausage Club. Both these places at the ski lift Volchya Scala are worth visiting. First go to gastronomic fast food place White Rabbit Family to grab some “sausisons” and “sausiburgers” that are made of baguette baked on the firewood and fresh chilled meat. And then go for some shots and hot cocktails to the Beluga station. Having satisfied your appetite, choose between heated deckchairs in MTS lounge zone or cozy chairs with cushions at Après-ski Bar. Sunbathe, enjoy the mountains view and dance of course – DJ is playing at the terrace until 3 pm.

Those who love dinners that smoothly shift into parties should definitely plan a late visit to Chicha. It is worth mentioning that this Peruvian restaurant will handle all the stages of your evening at the high level – you will enjoy gastronomic experiments of Vladimir Mukhin, the chief; special cocktails, nice people around and the music rhythms from DJ Valdis, bar resident. The advice is to order dairy corn tempura with lime, tostados, tiraditos, causas and definitely tuna ceviche (with avocado, batata, and norm with tamarind sauce). You can even choose the dish with your eyes closed – everything is delicious and off the beaten track. Don’t forget about the dessert; missing this option will be a huge mistake. Oh, and of course the drinks – the Peruvian bar has so many unusual - for example, bright green liquor made of guarana and coca leaves. But you should definitely start with pisco sour – Peru national treasure!

The number one place in the coziest restaurants of the resort is kept by Red Fox. It is so nice here that you want to stay in this place of warmth and tranquility if not forever than until you try everything from the menu. Or at least until you share all the biggest and bravest dreams sitting near the fireplace. Vladimir Mukhin, the outstanding chief, should be thanked for the food here. And for the inspiration one should thank the atmosphere of, the hunting lodge in the middle of nowhere, which is somewhere so far from the reality, that absolutely unexpected ideas come into your mind. The restaurant is not only the best one in Krasnodar region, but also is world wide famous due to the documentaries of BBC and CNN.

RADISSON ROSA KHUTOR

The star, the gem and the mecca of Krasnaya Polyana is the peak “Rosa Peak”: to take a ride to the clouds by cable car is a must check for every tourist who turn to be in Sochi. This is the place with the best view on Caucasian ridge and be sure it will take your breath away. There are a lot of entertainments on the territory of Rosa Khutor resort for those who like activities, but this cableway is also for those who are not really fans of winter sports – mountains can not be not admired, they don’t leave anybody indifferent. Hiking-lovers can check their strength here during the summer time, and in winter “Rosa Peak” is really heaven for sportsmen and all who consider to be them. The trendiest and youth place is the first hotel for riders in Russia – Riders Lodge. You can find here Game Zone Riders, where you can enjoy all the new things from play station, coffee shop Surf Coffee, a small cinema on the first floor of the hotel, and a vegetarian restaurant. But all these is just an addition to local sport company: trust me, even having come here alone and without any astonishing sport skills, just in few days of socialization you will have the contacts of all local stars and your technique will also be upgraded.

ROSA PEAK

There is a theory that the imperial luxury of public places – metro stations, railway stations, sanatoriums – of the Soviet period was meant to reward the work class with the beauty in return for the grey usual life, and at least for some time let them feel like kings of the world and lords of the future. The ideal example of such pomposity is the sanatorium named after Ordzhonikidze, which in its best times was the dream of almost all Soviet people. Now the sanatorium is practically abandoned, but this neglect provides it with special charm. The palace complex that consists of several buildings with green arboretum and some architectural surprises like huge fountain (16 hectares – this is not a joke) is now at an easy pace being conquered by nature, showing what is meant by the phrase “decline of the empire”. The reason to visit this place is not to spend the night here, but to experience some esthetics: wander among the grim back alleys of the park, have a glance on the see, touch the coldness of the white marble and feel the fragility of any, even a grand, idea in front of the course of time.

The first peculiarity of “Grusha” – is the location high in the mountains, what allows to come for a cup of coffee in winter practically on snowboard. The second one is connected to its name (in Russian “grusha” means “pear”), it was chosen not occasionally but for a reason: Circassian pear, along with chestnut and fern, has long time been considered one of the local highlights. The bar owners seem to have decided to bring it to the up point and created a place where the following things are made – Italian pasta with caramelized pear, pear cider, pear puerh, chestnut mousse, and special burgers, boiled crayfish, blackcurrant tea with briar and special tinctures (bread one, tomato one, spicy cranberry one). What is also great in “Grusha” is to eat at the open terrace of the restaurant, squint from the sunlight and breath the clean mountain air.

Everybody knows that the nights are dark in Sochi. As well as the Olympic games were held there. But not everyone is aware that the city which was a top of vacation dreams of our grandparents, is now turning into a trendy, modern holiday resort where all can find leisure activities for themselves: surf spots for active tourists, beaches and bowery parks – for those who enjoy lazy relax, pine forests, waterfalls, nature reserves and even relic yew and boxwood groves for nature beauty lovers. Moreover, it will take you not more than an hour to reach the mountains and change beach flip-flops to snowboard. Green, vivid, amazingly various - Sochi fascinates with slightly felt Caucasian character and light touch of soviet romance.

Sea, surf & mountains

Imagine the best what Russia has: vast expanses, various nature, generous soul, girls of amazing beauty, banya (bathhouse) after all. Add to it everything that attracts in Moscow: gastronomic restaurants, rampant parties, TV and Instagram celebrities all around. Shake but do not stir and you will get Rosa Khutor 2017 – the correct balance of healthy lifestyle and luxury. Krasnaya Polyana also attracts by its availability: the flight takes only two hours and a half, no need to make visa, taxi can be ordered via the known app for 1400 Russian rubles, and the time from the airport to the hotel is less than an hour! Where else can you find the same? Local infrastructure is at all not worse than in the Alps, it even anticipates the expectations: here it is tastier, cozier and merrier. And I haven’t yet said about the astonishing temperature contrasts – it’s winter on the top and summer at the foot! Moreover, despite the spring coming, you still have time to experience it all by yourself – record amount of snow promises to prolong the ski season for whole April, and the resort meanwhile offers very attractive price for this period! So, whatever time you choose for your visit, Rosa Khutor will surprise you and make you talk about Russia with admiration!

Rosa Khutor: Russia you want to live in

Sochi is like mosaic, in both geographic and conceptual senses. The territory of the resort consists of three parts – Sochi, Adler and Krasnaya polyana, and as for the cultural heritage, it is now a mix of empire heritage of Soviet Union left in the form of pompous sanatoriums, sprawling railway stations and ports, interspersing of Khrushev’s times, Russia of 90’s and the new wave of Olympic construction, from which modern resort industry is now trying to shape.
