Biologie

«Biologie» in Ilyinskoye, near Moscow, builds its menu around the idea of nature and its living processes. The name refers to the science of how organisms interact with their environment, and this is more than a metaphor: the chef studies the seasonality of produce, fermentation methods, and ingredient storage to bring out flavor in the most natural way possible. The dishes feature plants, mushrooms, seafood, and fermented products reflecting the planet's flora and fauna. The restaurant operates on principles of sustainability and zero waste — ingredients are taken from nature only when it is ready to give them up, and used with almost no leftovers. Biologie has its own laboratory and mini-farm for growing greens, where new dishes and culinary ideas are developed before making their way onto the gastrobistro's menu. The average check at the restaurant is 3,000–6,000 rubles, in line with the format of chef's tasting menus and sets. The restaurant is located at: Krasnogorsky District, Ilyinskoye village, Lenina Street, 30, building 2.
