Twin Stars is a Russian restaurant that only hires twins as severs in an attempt to stand out in the competitive Moscow dining scene. Alexei Khodorovsky's eatery was inspired by a Soviet-era film where a girl finds her double in a parallel universe. Twin Stars features identical wait staff, including bartenders. The sibling sets wear matching clothing as well, to further enhance the double vision aesthetic. The novelty restaurant also has modern decor that plays well to the alternate universe theme.
It remains to be seen if this unusual dining experience has staying power, but for the time being, this tactic is bringing in lots of intrigued customers. While Khodorovsky struggled to find twins with previous serving experience, so far, this concept has been successful.
