Modern bistro
with casual cuisine
by Evgeny Vikentiev.
The project’s concept is based on a frequently updated menu, with prevalence of Italian, French, and Spanish tastes. The dishes are prepared using seasonal farm-grown ingredients and non-trivial flavor combinations.
The project was created by Evgeny Vikentiev, ex-chef of the Beluga and Vinnyi-Shkaf restaurants, co-owner of Hamlet+Jacks (St. Petersburg) and Cell (Berlin), and his St. Petersburg partner, Elena Antonicheva.
The wine list, compiled by Daria Kozhevnikova, is divided into conceptual sections, offering guests a selection of wines from progressive producers and a wide range of champagne styles. For example, “Act of Hedonism” features popular and beloved selections. The “Fucking Fabulous” section is a collection of vibrant and trendy wines from iconic producers, including hard-to-find and limited-edition items, while Prosecco has been deliberately added to the ironically named “Shame” section.

The Bistro’s interior combines warm minimalism with respect for its historical context. The atmosphere is light and cozy, with vintage touches. The preserved marble floor and glass blocks subtly reference the aesthetics of Soviet modernism. The bistro’s ceiling is made of 70-year-old solid wood, and all wooden elements and doors are handcrafted. An open wine rack at the entrance and muted furnishings emphasize the gastronomic focus and thoughtful upocroly concept.
