centre, this sleek and buzzing place is centred on its namesake terrace, a wide porch
boasting unbelievable views of the Kazan Cathedral, Nevsky pr and the Church on the
Spilled Blood. It is a spectacular setting and you'll usually need reservations to sit on
the terrace, but you can just drop by and hope to get lucky. Inside, the atmosphere is

take a peek inside the open kitchen, where chefs are busy preparing fresh fusion
cuisine, exhibiting influences from Italy, Asia and beyond. There's a good breakfast
menu available from 11am to 1pm Monday to Friday.
