Cast

A wine restaurant featuring modern Middle Eastern cuisine, located at "Lenfilm."

Cast is a wine restaurant specializing in modern Middle Eastern cuisine. The restaurant was launched by a team led by Anna Kudinova, formerly the director of the Moscow restaurant KM20, and previously with 10 years of experience at Probka Family. Mark Shah Akbari is the head chef of the restaurant. The menu includes dishes such as dolma with smoked labneh, stuffed zucchini blossoms, octopus with potatoes and harissa, a pie with shredded beef, and a selection of progressive Champagnes from the À la Volée team. The interior was designed by the young architectural firm Roobi, whose specialists drew inspiration from archival photographs of the location from the 1970s, when directors like Alexei German and Kira Muratova were filming their early masterpieces at "Lenfilm." A key feature of the restaurant is its terrace: the courtyard will be transformed into a pedestrian street that connects Kamenny Ostrovsky and Kronverksky avenues. Cast will be the first restaurant on this future gastronomic route on the Petrograd side.
