RESTAURANT

If you know Russian culture, literature, poetry and history then you quite easily can understand Igor Grishechkin's universe. But even if not, you cannot but help being amused by his cooking's playfulness, almost as telling fairytales to a child.

Through creativity he has set a clear culinary path by telling grand tales of Russia's history though his dishes. From the opulent era of the Tsars, over the Communist Soviet Union, to a tantalising New Russian Cuisine partly shaped through the struggles of embargoes. Of a proud heart he cooks the very soul of his home country.

This results in an experience that narrates stories of Russian yesteryear in the present, conjures the spirit of especially Saint Petersburg that delights your inner-child and only cooked with pristine products from the North-Western part of the world's largest country.

The restaurant's appearance, alike its cuisine, is modern and undeniably Russian. Bright, ethnic, clear and ironic. Velvet and wood, gold and dinner china, mirrors, shining crystals and hovering black feathers of the restaurant's symbol; the hen.


A reference both to CoCoCo's strong collaboration with local farmers and their produce. Over-all the details of Cococo's decor creates an alluring image of a jewellery box you want to continuously look at, bewitched and mesmerized.

CoCoCo opened in 2012 and is the brainchild of celebrity, style icon, global diner and patron of the ballet, Matilda Shnurova. With a nymph-like elegance befitting of the Silver Age of Russian poetry Matilda and Igor have created Saint Petersburg's most fashionable and forward-thinking restaurant.
