Futurist Prepares Breakfasts for BreakFest.

At restaurant Futurist, a special menu has appeared for the BreakFest breakfast festival, bringing together local products, seasonal accents, and a recognizable St. Petersburg mood. Chef Roman Tsibulsky has proposed four breakfasts, each answering in its own way the question: what can a summer morning in St. Petersburg look like? Some plates strive for lightness and health, others try to capture fleeting warmth, and others carry northern flavors familiar to anyone who's been to Karelia.

Green buckwheat with avocado, fried oyster mushrooms, poached egg, and parmesan mousse was made for those who want to start the day taking care of themselves. This dish suits people who consider breakfast important but don't like to weigh the morning down with heavy food. A potato dranik with lightly salted trout and a soft-boiled egg, on the other hand, is already a story about nostalgia, northern landscapes, and cozy classic food. A cream-based mousse softens it, and together it all gives a sense of calm and balance.

For those who need warmth even when it's drizzling in the morning, the menu has fried chanterelles with scrambled eggs, roast beef, and red onion marmalade. This is one of the most "Petersburg" breakfasts — it carries both the season and a complex palette of flavors. And finally, a dessert option for those who like to start the morning sweet: pancakes with berries, farm-made stracciatella from the Leningrad Region, and a nut-chocolate sauce. This breakfast sets a tone of calm and pleasure, like an unhurried walk around the city.

Breakfasts as part of BreakFest are available all July. This year's festival concept is locality, benefit, the classics, and an original perspective. The Futurist team approached the task with care and precision: every breakfast is its own gastronomic story, one where you can recognize familiar places, flavors, and states of mind.
