The other night we went for dinner with friends. They speak better Russian than we do, so when the hostess asked something as we were handing our coats in to the garderobe (coat check, not medieval toilet) I didn't pay too much attention and let the friend answer. The hostess led us from one room to a different one, and then everyone stopped and looked quizzical. They asked the question again. It definitely wasn't "smoking or non-smoking room?" which is what I had gotten used to in Russia.
It was a Turkish restaurant. The question was "drinking or non-drinking room?"
