http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/26289 Every Tuesday night at 7.30, The Other Side becomes a select prepaid restaurant presenting an original Nouveau Russe menu created and cooked by Chef Greg Easter. He is an author and respected chef with extensive experience in California, Italy, and now Russia.

The food is cus-na! (very tasty), presented with class, and has had an appreciative reception.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/26289 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21614 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21614 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11851
The casual cellar atmosphere is cosy and welcoming. The staff pretty much all speak English. The moderately-priced menu (in English and Russian) features tasty American-style food including nachos with homemade chili, and monster burgers like nowhere else in the city.

Free WiFi and internet phone are really conveninent and helpful, and the English-language book and video library can help keep you sane if you're stuck here in winter.

The bar attracts a younger crowd late nights on weekends, especially when there's a DJ or band. It can get a little wild (in a fun way), and it's a great time to meet and party with locals.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11851 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4924
There's another Dickens Pub in Riga, so you could do a mini-tour. Although why you'd come to the Baltic to go to a British pub may need some explaining.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4924 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9441 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9441
