If you're in the mood for some old-school Russian schvitzing and blintzing, grab a group of friends and head to Spa 88, where you can drink, eat and party the way you've always wanted to... in your bathrobe. Upon arrival, grab a locker key, a halat (robe), and meet up in the predbannik, a dim lounge with large leather couches separated by ornate screens and covered with sleeping Russians. Flag down a waitress for some beer, tea or kvass (Russian fermented rye bread beverage) to kick off the night, then venture out to the maze of rooms hiding co-ed saunas. Bear the sauna as long as you can, then jump in the ice-cold plunge--it hurts, but it's worth it for the post-douse rush. Smoke your cigar in the leather-seated cigar lounge upstairs, then enjoy a Russian picnic--borsht, blintzes with red caviar, and of course, quintessential spa fare pickled herring--all without leaving the comfort of your robes.
