Khochu

«Khochu» is a bistro and bakery on Bolshoy Prospekt of the Petrogradskaya Side, serving breakfasts and dishes of European, mixed, and Russian cuisine. The interior is done in light tones and built on simplicity — no excessive decoration, just clean lines and an uncluttered space. This approach echoes the menu: the food here is simple and clear, with an emphasis on lightness and the natural taste of the ingredients. The kitchen at the bistro is headed by chef Grigory Kachkan. This is not his first project with the creators of «Khochu» — he previously set up the kitchen at their earlier venue, so there's a sense of a well-honed style and a clear understanding of the desired result. The bistro-and-bakery format means you can drop by for breakfast before work, for lunch, or simply for fresh pastries. Its location on the Petrogradskaya Side makes «Khochu» a convenient spot for those who live or work in this part of the city.
