Bourgeois Bohemians | BOBO
BOBO is an author-driven restaurant where contemporary gastronomy is in a constant state of exploration and evolution.
Brothers Artyom and Alexey Grebenshchikov created a space where this process can be seen, tasted, and experienced as a part of it.

The restaurant opened in 2018 and over the years has become a destination for those who appreciate gastronomy and the creative culture of St. Petersburg. For many years we have been guided by a single idea — to connect the past and the present in a way that allows taste to evoke emotion.
We are fascinated by the moment when familiar flavors suddenly take on a new voice: when you eat a dish you think you know, yet sense something different, something deeper within it.
Artyom and Alexey Grebenshchikov envisioned BOBO as a space outside the mass-market format — a place where they could cook what resonates with them personally.
The brothers' background includes internships at colleges in England, Australia, Finland, and France. This experience shaped the principles that matter most to them: attention to detail and the pursuit of pure, balanced flavor. It is this combination that defines BOBO’s cuisine today.

Set menus are the signature of the restaurant
From the very first day, the restaurant has followed two directions: set menus and Á la carte (French for "according to the menu").
The tasting sets are the restaurant’s signature offering and are updated twice a year — spring-summer and autumn-winter. Each set is created in collaboration with artists and made using regional delicacies from across Russia.

Exhibition by
Alexander Chernogrivy “The Bolshakovs”
September 5 – September 30
Alexander Chernogrivov is a St. Petersburg-based photographer with a mystical sensibility, whose work fits into the tradition of Vladimir Toporov’s "St. Petersburg text"—a perspective that views St. Petersburg as a city of hyper-saturated realities, an otherworldly entity on the border between worlds, and a living myth. His new solo exhibition features the series "The Bolshakovs," in which Alexander experimented with portraits and photographic printing techniques.
