На 22-м этаже Российской Академии Наук на Ленинском проспекте открылся необыкновенно стильный и вкусный ресторан «Небесная Гостиная» («Sky Lounge»). С высоты птичьего полета город как на ладони. А в стенах ресторана тепло и изысканно, красиво и уютно. К услугам истинных гурманов — европейская и азиатская кухня. Летняя рапсодия: салат из разнотравья с теплым сыром «Томино» и пармской (Parma) ветчиной. Или настоящая гастрономическая поэма: карпаччо (сорассо) из копченой утиной грудки и свежих фруктов, замаринованных в коньяке (cognac). Легкое дуновение Востока: рулеты из голубого тунца с хрустящими овощами и соусом унаги. И совершенно идиллический натюрморт: вязанка из спаржи с итальянским омлетом и кусочком домашнего трюфельного масла. Идеальный вечерний вариант для проголодавшихся сторонников здорового питания — черная треска с шафранным ризотто и спаржей или розовая дорадо с запеченными перцами и базиликом. И не забудьте про десерт: крем-брю- ле, освежающий супчик из свежей клубники с мятой и огромный выбор домашнего мороженого и щербета (sorbet).
Средний ужин в ресторане обойдется в 70—100 у.е, что может показаться достаточно дорого, но, поверьте, удовольствие от посещения этого заведения стоит того!
