Eating in this historic restaurant, the sparkling diamond in the sumptuous Belmond Grand Hotel Europe’s crown, is an experience to be savoured. The service is in a class of its own, the interiors are stunning, especially the original Art Nouveau stained glass windows and ceiling, and all the dishes are made with the absolute finest ingredients available. Of the luxurious Russian dishes on offer the "egg in an egg" (a kind of posh scrambled hen's egg with black sturgeon caviar on top) is an expensive one of a kind treat and the steamed Kamchatka crab a la Romanov likewise will be a pleasant surprise for the taste buds. We especially recommend visiting on Fridays, when a chamber orchestra and ballet dancers perform Tchaikovsky, and on Sundays, when they offer their legendary Sunday Jazz Brunches, one of the best in the city.
