Fanconi Fail

 
Sometimes, despite the lovely food and presentation, the atmosphere can totally turn you off a restaurant.  Such was our problem with Fanconi, located next to the circus in Chisinau.  As you can see, the food is gorgeous and they even have Italian prosecco.  The problems?  The menus are -only- in Russian.  At least there are photos, but still.  They are also located on a very busy street and we arrived just after rush hour on a weekday.  A bus stop is right in front of the restaurant.  The noise makes it very hard to have a conversation with your table companions.  Other than that, it was a delightful place.  Perhaps, if you go, you should be seated indoors.
