The restaurant Syrovarnya (Creamery) opened not long ago, but has quickly gained popularity thanks largely to its fresh-made cheese. Eight varieties are available. Customers can watch the cheese-making process through a special glass partition. Milk is supplied by Russian farmers and rennet is imported from Italy. All the staff completed apprenticeships with Italian cheese makers.

The restaurant offers home-style cuisine: simple, tasty, healthy, sustainable food. The burrata dishes are the most popular: for example, focaccia with tomatoes and basil, baked in a wood-fired oven. One of the novelties of the spring-summer season is the ricotta salad with spinach and raspberry. Fish and meat dishes, including grilled steaks, and desserts are also served.

Italians who live or work in Russia frequent Syrovarnya and praise it for its premium cheese. Foreigners will find it easy to order as the menu is both in Russian and English.

By the way, if you want to watch World Cup matches, ask to be seated in the summer terrace where TV screens will be set up specially.
