ARKA

One of the favorite place of wealthy youth pétersbourgeoise meeting. This modern restaurant with refined cuisine can easily be transformed into a bar, in mini-club or concert hall on weekends, even sometimes in cinema on Tuesday. Close to the Nevski prospect with affordable prices, you can dine quietly in the evening with a very good salads (warm salad with turkey and paprika cream), sets of grilled melting meats for two people (speciality of the house), simple sets (Russian menu at 139 RUB) or wok-making not forgetting to taste the homemade desserts (creme brulee with apples and cranberries). For digestion or aperitif, and do not be shy and go straight to the bar to observe the work of the barmen and to sip well their masterfully executed creations. Special mention for Griboedov (сognac infused with mushrooms accompanied by cheese chips) and Bouriak (blackcurrant vodka, beet syrup and beet chips). After a certain hour, the atmosphere resembles more that of a small intimate club than at a restaurant. Sweet no-claims bonus: it is possible to leave with pockets full of chocolates (from RUB 55 to RUB 65 pieces) or pastries (from RUB 75 to RUB 390) homemade.
