DOM BEAT €€

As if naming St Petersburg's coolest bar, lounge and restaurant
after a Soviet all-purpose store and then dressing the model-gorgeous staff in tailored
pastiches of factory uniforms wasn't a solid enough start, the sleek, retro-humorous
interior, sumptuous menu and great atmosphere add up to make this one of the best
eating choices in town. As well as great breakfasts (served until 7pm!), there's a wide
choice of dishes ranging from top-notch Asian cuisine to modern takes on Russian
meals and international bar food.

available by the glass.
