Excuse me, can you tell me how to get to Vaentorg?
Идите прямо.
Go straight.

When you reach the medical unit, turn left.
Там пройдете еще метров 50 и увидите офицерскую столовую.
There you will walk another 50 meters and see the officers' mess.
Прямо за офицерской столовой Ваенторг.
Right behind the Vaentorg officers' mess.
Правда, он сегодня, по-моему, закрыт.

Да вы что, неужели?
What do you mean, really?
Да, насколько я знаю, сегодня Ваенторг не работает.
Yes, as far as I know, Vaentorg is not open today.
