Chejov
Chekhov (4 Petropavlovskaya Ul., St. Petersburg) – this restaurant’s 19th century décor contrasts with a 21st century remake of Russian dishes. Fiery red borsch, chicken Kiev, baked whitefish and cabbage pies are served, with the sweet scent of homemade cherry Nalivka floating in the air. A white piano, an antique gramophone and oak furniture complete Chekhov’s warm country house looks, while on a good day there’s live bird-singing going in the terrace.
