Vadim Kalinich, enthusiast and restaurateur, opened “Bukovski” in the premises of former tobacco plant, that now has turned into a real restaurant cluster. Today the place has two stores, patio and terrace, and still you have to book a table in advance.
On the menu you will find many variants of meat, sixteen sorts of craft beer, fried smelt and surmullet, potatoes and fresh vegetables for side dish. Cuisine is reckoned for a meat lover, so even ladies better leave their decency and taste burger made from local beef or homemade sausages. Among other nice bonuses of the pub are: friendly waiter with dreadlocks, reciting poetry to the visitors, summer terrace with cane chairs, kindest local cat Farfor (porcelain in Russian), ready to sleep, rumble and sit still at your knees, shrimp julienne that is not on the menu, and live jazz concerts in the evenings. The average bill is quite reasonable – 1000 rubles.
