PUSHKIN SQUARE McDONALD'S
 
Before the opening of the first Russian McDonald's, the restaurant received more than 27,000 applications in response to a single "help wanted" advertisement. After screening the applications, McDonald's in Russia hired 630 of the most qualified candidates. These new employees were then given an intensive training program that taught McDonald's operating procedures and practices as it strenuously focused on the McDonald's founding principles of offering a quality product at an affordable price in a clean and friendly environment.
 
In the pre-dawn hours of January 31, 1990 more than 5,000 customers gathered in front of the 2,200 square meter McDonald's restaurant, eagerly awaiting its opening. By the end of its first day of operation, the multilevel restaurant with seating for 700 customers had served more than 30,000 people, breaking McDonald's system-wide opening day records. Twelve years later, this restaurant continues to hold the record as the busiest McDonald's restaurant.
