At the height of the red berry season, chefs of Moscow restaurants use them wherever possible in desserts, salads and soups. Both fresh and in the form of sauces, jams and fillings. Go grab the list of establishments you should try!
“Coffee Craze”
In the establishments of the network, perhaps the largest selection of dishes with strawberries. For breakfast or a snack, they offer Coffeemania yogurt topped with ripe strawberries and raspberries crushed with sugar. Another interesting option is lazy dumplings in coconut milk: not only mango-passion fruit sauce is added to them, but also raspberry crumbs. A good refreshing snack is stracciatella with mashed strawberries and mint.
Of course, most of all red berries are in the “Dessert” section. You’ll find strawberries and wild strawberries in panna cotta. Strawberry mousse with fresh raspberries – “Loves – dislikes” in a dessert with a mysterious name. Fresh strawberries – as a filling for the coconut biscuit of the Lime & Strawberry cake. Strawberry espuma – With coconut milk based mojito custard in Strawberry Mojito.
And finally, a fruit novelty especially for vegetarians – Ipanema cake. Inside, a vegan banana sponge with layers of banana milk cream and cashew urbech is balanced with a raspberry-based filling and raspberry glaze. And how to choose?

“FOREST.”
So he cuts his tongue out: “If you want blackberries, go to the forest.” The restaurant of the same name has created a strawberry that literally looks like it’s lying on the grass. Dessert “Strawberry” is a light strawberry milk chocolate mousse coated with white chocolate and cocoa butter. Inside, fresh strawberries with the addition of strawberry puree are flavored with lemon and lime zest, fresh basil and spiced rum. One fruit is probably enough!
An alternative is a sweet cold cherry soup with red basil and homemade ice cream.
Address: Tverskoy Boulevard, 9
Williams
Legend Patricks’ updated branded breakfast has a few positions with seasonal fruit. For example, they now offer cottage cheese with cherries, amarena sauce from Italian cherries, and chia. And fresh strawberries are added to mini fritters with agave syrup and sour cream. And the most curious thing, perhaps, is a vitamin of beetroot strawberries. Try it any morning from 8:30.
Address: M. Bronnaya street, 20 A
geraldin
In the bistro in Ostozhenka, you should not only look for strawberries in the “Desserts” section: here, for example, fresh raspberries are added to the crayfish carpaccio with bottarga, and it is interesting! Among the sweet treats, take the “Strawberry Pavlova” or the millefeuille with cherries and red currants – by the way, the latter is not yet on the menu as often.
Address: st. Ostozhenka, 27, building 2
uhvat
Viktor Beley, the brand chef of the Uhvat restaurant, decided that the fruit would go well for appetizers and main courses, not for finishing the meal. Check out their seasonal menu for tuna with Stracciatella and strawberry spicy sauce, and tomato soup with basil sorbet, strawberries and fennel.
Address: st. Rochdelskaya, 15, p. 41
“House number 8”
After entering a two-story restaurant in the heart of Khamovniki, sit on the patio, grab a glass of sparkling wine and accompany with a burrata complete with fragrant delight from fresh strawberries and arugula. The perfect combination for a summer afternoon!
Address: Malaya Pirogovskaya, 8
“Barrel”
Here wild berries were found in an unusual place – along with quail offal and accompanying mushroom foam. Recommended to try!
Closer to the classic options – cranberry mousse with raspberry sauce and lemon mint.
Address: st. 1905, year 2

Perhaps the most amazing dish with strawberries this summer is the carpaccio with smoked tomatoes and cherries. The bright taste of ripe fruit perfectly brings out the light smokiness of the carpaccio and the spice of drops of paneer cheese, along with green curry and masala. By the way, the dish reflects the style of the restaurant’s chef, Valery Chingarov: it is made intricately, has an unusual, but harmonious taste.
Address: st. B. Dmitrovka, 10, p. four
grace
Fans of Vladimir Chistyakov urgently need to go to Grace to try his amazing seasonal novelties. Among them is a rum baba in which the yuzu cream is “hidden”, served with fresh raspberries and garnished with silver petals.
Address: st. Spiridonovka, 25/20, p. a
Christian
Christian Lorenzini created a summer menu based on memories of his Italian childhood. It ends with a puff pastry-like dessert, but the chef called it “Puff Raspberry Crack” because the very thinly baked puff pastry cracked and cracked and wasn’t yet wet from the limoncello custard. All together – a very light, truly summer Italian combination.
