Shtof

«Shtof» operates at the «Zhemchug» hotel on Komsomolskaya Street and focuses on Russian cuisine without unnecessary frills. Here they serve what used to be cooked at home: pickled vegetables as if straight from grandmother's cellar, an assorted homemade salo platter, Black Sea fish soup, and red mullet straight from the pan. The average check is 1,500 rubles, which corresponds well to the range of dishes and portion sizes. A separate place in the menu is held by the josper — river trout, chicken, and filet mignon steak are cooked to readiness over coals here. The result is a combination of straightforward Russian cuisine with fish and meat over an open flame, which looks like a logical addition given Sochi's proximity to the sea. The restaurant will suit those who want to try food without pretension — simple dishes prepared according to tried-and-true recipes, with an emphasis on local seafood and classic appetizers.
