Переносящий в дворцовую эпоху Золотой зал ресторана Турандот.

 В старинном московском особняке на Тверском бульваре, вернее, даже дворце, в стиле позднего барокко и «шинуазри», находится ресторан «Турандот», похожий на драгоценную шкатулку.В сердце ресторана Турандот расположена ротонда, занимающая два этажа, в которую выходят двери банкетных залов. Завитки позолоченной лепнины на куполе в виде небосвода с белыми облаками образуют орнаментальные тяги, сходящиеся к центру, из которого спускается люстра à la Louis XIV из золоченого железа с подвесками из горного хрусталя, кварца и аметистов с Урала, из Бразилии и Мадагаскара, изготовленная в Петербурге. Здесь все умело украшено расписными китайскими вазами, статуэтками обе��ьян и фресками с их же участием в пасторальном стиле.

The Golden Hall of the Turandot restaurant takes you back to the palace era.

In an old Moscow mansion on Tverskoy Boulevard, or rather a palace, in the late Baroque and Chinoiserie style, there is the Turandot restaurant, which resembles a precious box. In the heart of the Turandot restaurant there is a rotunda, occupying two floors, into which the doors of the banquet halls open. The curls of gilded stucco on the dome in the form of a firmament with white clouds form ornamental rods converging to the center, from which descends a chandelier à la Louis XIV made of gilded iron with pendants of rock crystal, quartz and amethysts from the Urals, Brazil and Madagascar, made in St. Petersburg. Here everything is skillfully decorated with painted Chinese vases, monkey figurines and frescoes with their participation in a pastoral style.
