“Chinese Literature. Bar and Food“ in Barvikha is the second restaurant of the deafeningly successful and titled mini chain of the United Company ”Rappoport Restaurants”. The first “Kitayskaya Gramota”, opened on Sretenka in 2014, instantly became an urban legend and one of the most popular places in the capital, and the second restaurant, located on the main pedestrian street of boutiques in the shopping center “Barvikha Luxury Village”, successfully continued the expansion and showed guests new facets of “Kitayskaya Gramota”.

While in the center the emphasis is on the lively atmosphere of an English pub, outside the city it is a full-fledged two-storey restaurant where guests come to relax and recharge their batteries in a relaxed and refreshing atmosphere. The daylight penetrating through the huge panoramic windows helped the designers to fill the room with air and lightness: in such a space familiar art objects from the times of the Cultural Revolution, modern Chinese art, recognizable pillows with portraits of Mao Zedong, a collection of ancient vases and sculptures from the ancient Han and Tang dynasties look even more bright and trendy.

The conceptual menu of “Chinese Literature” here remains unchanged: just like in the restaurant on Sretenka, it is based on Cantonese, aka Guangdong cuisine. Chef Zhang Xiancheng offers a menu full of gastronomic hits: salad of broken cucumbers with cilantro and cashews, crispy eggplants with tomatoes, transparent dim sum, stewed duck tongues, delicacy black duck eggs, beef with black pepper and, of course, Peking duck.

In spring and summer “Chinese Literature” in Barvikha expands its space and opens a terrace: guests are saved from the sun by the awning made of fabric of the brand’s poppy color, a summer garden is spread in the center of the space.
