I wish the flowers were in front of the statue, not behind.

Amazing art isn't always in a gallery.
Spring decided to dump a random snow flurry on our heads, so my friend and I ducked in here to warm up for a bit before continuing our walking tour.  It's fairly upscale, but we felt comfortable despite our jeans and North Face jackets.  The lunch options are very tasty, especially the goat cheese and bread appetizer.  And the jasmine tea is amazing.  They also have really good hot chocolate.
Podil is an AWESOME neighborhood of Ukraine that's crammed to the gills with great restaurants and cafes and bars.  3B just happens to be one of them where I took a photo!  Burgers are all the rage in Kyiv right now, and this is one of many places that features them on the menu and does a darn good job making them.  Decent beer selection too, and decent prices.
