    Look at all the privileged New Yorkers who think they're actually doing something by eating at an upscale restaurant. The amount of virtue signaling is insane. Pat yourself on the back because you eat at a restaurant owned by people you didn't care about several months ago.

    Interesting that they mention, that they shared their views on the war only when they faced a reality of closing the restaurant. So it wasn’t about supporting Ukraine, it was just about their business. Typical russians, they pretend to be someone or to do something only when they are cornered financially.
    If you ask me, russian restaurants are a part of a so called “russain culture”, as their represent russia. So along with their country they should be responsible for the actions of russia. If their culture would be so great and humanistic, would so many people go to Ukraine to kill Ukrainians and would other russians support it? This “culture” failed, so I’m happy people are boycotting it!
