In the centre of Saint-Petersburg Nevskiy, 26 at the end of December will once again open its doors to the famous St. Petersburg restaurant "Madrid court". For quite a long period it was closed for renovation, but in a few weeks residents of the Northern capital will be able to re-experience the charm of Spanish cuisine in a familiar place.
Reconstruction affected not only the interiors of the restaurant, although these changes are evident from the very threshold. Two halls of "Madrid court" will be decorated in a different style. One of them is like a traditional tavern in Segovia, the second as the courtyard Andalusian Villa. Now on their design employs a team of artists-designers.
But the main and far more interesting changes guests "Madrid court" will see the opening menu. It includes traditional dishes from almost all regions of Spain, including recipes, which has a history of about thousand years. Chef "of the court of Madrid" Carlos de Vera, planning my menu, was guided primarily by a desire as vividly as possible to show all facets of Spanish cooking, picking up the most interesting gastronomic couple, playing combinations of flavors and aromas. In the meantime, the list of dishes, and the wine list is kept secret for the remaining before the opening time they will still be subject to changes and additions.
"Before the opening of the "Madrid court" remains less month, and our preparations are in full swing, he says. I'm doing the menu planning of the restaurant, which will bring to Russia the diversity of my national cuisine. Every day we taste and discuss nearly 200 dishes to keep the menu has only the best of them. I confess, the choice is quite difficult. Spanish cuisine is incredibly diverse, it is the result of mixing of many cultures. It can be compared only with the variety of gastronomy in China, and it makes our kitchen unique."
Well, St Petersburg is to wait when the doors of "Madrid court" will be opened, and in the updated halls of Suvorov will start a small daily gastronomic feast, a culinary journey to the home of Carmen and don Quixote.
