Moscow pampers us with a variety of restaurants and cafes. In the capital, everyone will find exactly the institution in which both food and atmosphere will ideally meet his preferences. Let's get acquainted with one of the best restaurants in the south-west of Moscow.
A bit about Seasons
Restaurants of this chain belong to the famous holding "Calypso", which operates not only in Moscow, but also in the regions. In total, two establishments are open in the city, one of which is located on Leninsky Prospekt. It is located on the ground floor of the large shopping and entertainment center "Rio", next to the famous The Noodle house restaurant and the network cafes "Chocolate", "Barberry", "Burger King".
Location and opening hours
The first Seasons restaurant in Moscow is located in such a way that you can get to it both by private car and public. It is located at: Leninsky Prospekt, 109. The second institution is located on Vernadsky Avenue, 86A.
Thanks to the developed transport network in this part of the capital, it becomes possible to get to the restaurant by bus from the nearby metro stations (Prospekt Vernadskogo, Kaluzhskaya, Yugo-zapadnaya and Troparevo). The restaurant’s working hours are very convenient: on weekdays from 11 a.m. to midnight, and on weekends it opens at 12:00. A pleasant addition to the evening will be live music, accompanied by an excellent DJ-maker. On weekends, various thematic master classes and creative lessons for curious kids are held.
Design and decoration
Restaurant design was handled by one of the leading companies Megre Interiors, which took a fresh look at contemporary styles in the interior. Having chosen two directions: loft style and classics - they combined them, and we got a very interesting, original design.
Restaurant Seasons on Leninsky Prospekt is considered one of the largest, its area is 1200 m 2 . In the huge hall with a luxurious ceiling and hanging chandeliers of golden hues, an atmosphere of sophistication and ease is felt. All tables and sofas are made in light warm colors with bright accents on small details. This thoughtful combination of two different styles creates an incredibly cozy atmosphere that invites guests to soulful conversations. According to most critics, the best place in the area is Seasons. Restaurants of this brand differ not only in a convenient location, but also in an unimaginably beautiful design.
The highlight of the restaurant
In addition to the huge panoramic windows that overlook the colorful streets of Moscow, another advantage of the restaurant is its summer terrace. It is quite spacious and surrounded by flower beds of the brightest, most delicate and fragrant flowers. Here, on summer evenings, unobtrusive live music plays, which creates ideal conditions for romantic dates. Just imagine how pleasant it is to sit on comfortable chairs at beautifully decorated tables and eat original dishes of one of the best chefs of Italian cuisine. Thanks to this luxurious veranda, the Seasons restaurant on Leninsky, whose photo you see, is considered one of the most visited establishments in the capital.
Menu Features
Let's find out all the details about the dishes that are offered at Seasons. These restaurants have their own menu features: cooking, decoration, serving with various sauces and other small details, without which the dish will no longer be perfect.
The main person in the kitchen is, of course, the cook! In this restaurant, the chef is one of the most talented culinary specialists, the master of his craft, Stanislav Balaev. The main focus of the institution is considered to be European cuisine, in particular Italian and traditional French. Visitors are offered a rich menu with a variety of original dishes. Here is just a small list of what you can taste in this magnificent place:
- Lenten menu (salads and snacks for those on a diet);
- pizza (focaccia with parmesan, Calzone, classic Carbonara, Margarita, etc.);
- soups (borsch, tomato with basil, minestrone);
- hot dishes (linguine with pesto, risotto with spinach, couscous with vegetables, etc.);
- children's menu (cream soups, spaghetti, barbecue, nuggets, which all children love very much);
- author's dishes (foie gras with cherry sauce, chestnut puree and wasabi, seafood salads);
- Caucasian cuisine (khachapuri, dolma, satsivi and matzoni);
- charcoal dishes (chicken with herbs, kebab, sea bass, dorado and pork ribs).
As you can see, the menu is really very diverse, so here every guest will find the dish that he likes. In addition to delicious dishes, this restaurant boasts its own bakery with an oven over a live fire! Visitors are offered aromatic freshly baked bread with yeast-free sourdough.
It is worth saying a few words about the cost of dishes. The prices in this restaurant are slightly above average, but very tasty food and service fully pay for the money spent. So, for example, the cost of one serving of salad is from 250 to 780 rubles, but for a delicious salmon steak in a white wine sauce with seafood, you will have to pay 850 rubles. For regular guests, Seasons employees (restaurants of other chains have long been practicing a similar idea) issue a card, thanks to which a significant amount can be saved.
Drinks and Desserts
A rich wine list deserves special attention. It presents the world's most famous brands of alcoholic beverages: the best varieties of Italian and French wines, as well as aged cognac and whiskey. Fans of hot drinks are offered a choice of delicious coffee brewed from fresh and fragrant beans. Of course, for the excellent quality of drinks you will have to pay a tidy sum, but you will be guaranteed a vivid impression of the stunningly exquisite hot-drinks!
Another highlight of the restaurant can be considered its own gastronomic shop, which presents a wide variety of types of confectionery. All kinds of cheesecakes, cakes, caramel mousse esterhazy, ice cream, berry meringues and sorbets - all of them are made exclusively from natural products according to the best recipes, due to which they are uniquely tasty and airy.
The price of dessert is surprisingly small: for example, the Melange cheesecake with passion fruit punch costs only 390 rubles, and one serving of cakes (Medovik, Napoleon, Tiramisu) will cost from 250 to 450 rubles. Making custom cakes to order is another nice bonus for guests (this service is provided by Seasons Restaurant on Leninsky).
