Balkan

«Balkan» on Nevsky Prospekt, 46 brings together the cuisine of four countries — Serbia, Bulgaria, Greece and their neighbours in the region — under one roof. The restaurant is located near Gorkovskaya metro station, and the average check here is around 1,500 ₽. The menu includes pašticada, beef stewed in wine according to a classic Bulgarian recipe, ćevapi with kaymak and pljeskavica — signature grilled meat dishes familiar to anyone who has been to the Balkans. Fish and seafood have a place of their own on the menu: guests order grilled octopus and langoustines when they want something lighter after the hearty meat dishes. The restaurant suits those who want to try Balkan cuisine in St. Petersburg without travelling: the combination of meat, spices and seafood conveys the flavour of the region through specific, recognisable dishes.
