Steaks
Steaks

A steak is a a slice of high-quality beef that is grilled or pan-fried. It is distinguished by strong flavor and an awesome smell of smoke. Steak is great with just a dash of salt and pepper, however, you can also add dried herbs, olive oil, lemon juice, or garlic.

Stroganoff Steak House is located in the heart of St. Petersburg. This is a unique place with the Russian-American cuisine, which will appreciate even the most sophisticated steak lovers. Here you will find a huge selection of dishes from all over Russia: Kamchatka king crab legs, Vologda salted mushrooms, Barnaul pickled honey mushrooms, Murmansk halibut cold smoked fish, Baikal omul, ribeye steak from marble beef from Bryansk or Orenburg regions.

And you can also taste dishes from countries with the best traditions of cooking meat: "Striploin" steak from Argentina, a rack of lamb from Australia or Iceland. All steaks are prepared on natural birch charcoal in a special Spanish oven "Josper". If you have not tried steaks before, we recommend choosing between "medium" or "medium well" degree of doneness. In this case, the meat will retain its juiciness and unique taste. Every Sunday in the restaurant "Stroganoff Steak House", a whole lamb is baked in herbs on a unique Portuguese grill. It is fried right in the hall so that guests can follow the cooking process and enjoy the aroma of baked meat. This dish is served along with a salad of sweet tomatoes, red onion, and vegetable oil with a sauce based on ajika.

Crab legs

Crab legs have sweet tender meat that tastes delicious. There are two crab types, namely king crab or snow crab, and they differ in size and the way they taste.

Have you ever been in a restaurant with a wonderful view? If you want to see the real Petersburg, be sure to visit Mansarda. The word is translated as "an attic". Externally, the restaurant resembles a cube of glass. It is located on the last floor of a business center, and its glass windows overlook St. Isaac's Cathedral, which is considered one of the best sights of St. Petersburg.

In the restaurant, the closest to the cathedral places are often reserved for six months ahead, although, you may be lucky. Then, you will enjoy all the beauty and majesty of the monument with a glass of noble wine. Nothing improves the appetite better than fresh air, beautiful views, and insanely delicious dishes. A wide selection of dishes of European, Russian, Mediterranean, Japanese and Pan-Asian cuisines are served here: caviar, Far Eastern crab legs, fillet of marbled beef with onion sauce. But despite all the culinary delights, the most important element remains the magnificent view of to St. Isaac's Cathedral.

Peking duck
Peking duck

Peking duck is a famous Chinese dish that has been prepared the same way since the Imperial era. The whole duck is roasted until it gets thin and crispy skin, then the dish is served with thin steamed pancakes, spring onions, and bean sauce.

It is quite difficult to find a real Chinese restaurant in St. Petersburg. On the Rubinstein street, you will see unique places with its own distinct style and format. Tsé Fung is one of them. The name of this restaurant is translated from Chinese as a phoenix, a bird that occupies a significant place in Chinese mythology. Unlike the western view, in China, the Phoenix cannot be reborn, but the firebird personifies charm and beauty, and only a person with a kind heart and a pure soul can see it. No wonder in China it is customary to decorate wedding dresses with feathers of peacocks or pheasants.

In the restaurant, every detail is impregnated with Chinese culture. Peking duck, vegetables with Hoisin sauce, Chinese mushrooms with bamboo shoots and a traditional tea ceremony will turn your dinner into something special.
