17%

of hotel restaurants in St. Petersburg offer only local cuisine.

In 31.9% of hotel restaurants, both local and international dishes are offered, and in 23.4% of restaurants, the cuisine of another country is offered.

In their reviews of St. Petersburg cafes and restaurants travelers say that only a few places reflect urban gastronomic authenticity.

These data are presented in an article by Valery Gordin and Julia Trabskaya of the Laboratory of Cultural Economics at HSE St. Petersburg entitled ‘New Approaches to the Study of Gastronomic Brands of Tourist Destinations’.
