Aw, well, no one likes to hear about an outsider bad-mouthing something about your hometown/country, but I have to say, were they alive in/have clear memories of 1991? That could make a bit of difference! XD Maybe the good tasty food was in underground hipster restaurants or something. You just didn't know where they were....
I'm sure Moscow of today and Moscow of the early 1990s were pretty different in some (maybe a lot of) ways! But there are non-expats in w-s now, too. I'm sure they know all the current Moscow hotspots. They are the Bright Young Things of Moscow (who work crazy hours sometimes).
