Savva — 5 Years
To create a festive dinner together with Andrei Shmakov, the world’s best female chef Janaina Torres is coming to celebrate the project’s anniversary
On October 22 at 7:00 PM, Savva celebrates its 5th anniversary. In honor of this milestone, a four-hands dinner will take place, prepared by the project’s brand chef Andrei Shmakov and Brazilian chef Janaina Torres, who was named the World’s Best Female Chef (The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2024).The set menu will include 11 courses, with each chef personally presenting several of their signature dishes and sharing stories about the visuals, flavor profiles, and ingredients. The dinner’s concept spans continents: recipes are inspired by different regions of Brazil and Russia, forming a kind of culinary guide through both countries’ authentic flavors.The anniversary evening is supported by Afisha Restaurants, Sysoev FM, GreatList, and leading wine importer FORT.
Janaina Torres is not only the holder of numerous awards (her achievements include a MICHELIN Green Star for A Casa do Porco, the titles of Best Female Chef in Latin America and Best Female Chef in the World, as well as the “Two Knives” (World Class) status at The Best Chef Awards 2026 in Milan, confirming her as a chef of true international caliber), but also an outstanding professional who uses her global recognition to promote positive social change. Her restaurant Bar da Dona Onça, opened in her native São Paulo in the iconic Copan building, became a catalyst for the neighborhood’s revival movement. Janaina’s cuisine is built on family and regional recipes that embody the spirit of Brazilian gastronomy and deep respect for its roots.
This same idea lies at the heart of the Savva (MICHELIN, GreatList) culinary philosophy, which Andrei Shmakov has been shaping year after year. The brand chef masterfully blends centuries-old traditions of Russian gastronomy with the trends of the modern era.
“Savva is a place where cuisine tells stories,” notes Arkady Novikov. “Here, ingredients, attention to detail, and the ability to connect flavor with emotion are what matter most. A great dinner should surprise, bring joy, and leave impressions that stay with guests for a long time.”
The festive dinner will serve as a map of the key flavors of two, at first glance, very different countries. But by “tasting” five regions of Brazil and six of Russia, guests will discover what unites them — comforting textures, familiar ingredients, and soul-warming combinations. Seasonal produce, the ingenious simplicity of home-style recipes, and an author’s view of the centuries-long evolution of national cuisines — that is the brief narrative behind this unique four-hands dinner.
Janaina Torres will prepare dishes based on the most distinctive recipes from various corners of her homeland. Inspired by the aromas and moods of the Southeast, she will open the evening with a reimagined version of the regional classic Bife a cavalo — steak with potatoes and a quail egg.
Then, she will transport guests to the country’s north with Tucupi broth with mushrooms and crab, a traditional dish of the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon. Next will come Moqueca, a white fish stew from the northeast, followed by Galinhada — spiced chicken with rice from the Central-West region. The finale of her gastronomic story will be a delicate cassava meringue with caviar, paying tribute to the southern traditions of Brazil. Each dish will be personally presented by the chef — and her stories will hardly be brief. Torres is deeply engaged in her country’s cultural and social life, so her words will create a vivid portrait of Brazil and its rich culinary heritage.
Andrei Shmakov will tell the story of Russia through the authentic flavors of the Far East, Kaliningrad, the North Caucasus, the South, Siberia, and Moscow. Each of these six regions has its own distinct character — exploring them will feel like traveling through different countries and cultures. From the Far East — a crispy oyster with crab, sour cream, and chum salmon caviar, as well as a combination of seaweed, scallop, yuzu, and fern. Siberia will be represented by the Indigirka salad with whitefish caviar, omul, and salted milk mushrooms. The South — a vol-au-vent with zucchini caviar, tomato, roasted sweet pepper espuma, and vegetable jus with sunflower seeds. Kaliningrad — duck fillet and liver with smoked eel and apple sauce. The North Caucasus — lamb skewer, flatbread with Ossetian cheese and corn, and sun-dried tomatoes with adjika. The Russian gastronomic story will conclude with a dessert from the restaurant’s pastry chef Artyom Grachev — a hazelnut shell filled with salted caramel ice cream and truffle, reflecting the flavor palette of Moscow.
Andrei will also personally present all his dishes, accompanying them with engaging stories about the recipes and their origins.
Festive evenings at Savva have long been known for their special atmosphere — light, sincere, and joyful. This year, the dinner will be accompanied by live music with Brazilian drums, setting the rhythm for the evening and filling it with the carnival spirit of Rio de Janeiro.

The salads include the unsurpassed Mimosa with tuna, which, fortunately, is prepared not only for the New Year, Rosolye from lightly salted herring with potatoes and baked beetroot according to the recipe of 1956, and Stolichny from 1961 with chicken and quail eggs.
For the "first" there is a hodgepodge with sturgeon and fish dumplings from 1976, as well as beef soup "Muranovsky style" from 1905 with pickled pineapples and a pie with mushrooms. For the "second" — a "Fireman's" cutlet of rabbit and turkey, stuffed quail with green buckwheat, duck hearts and sauce with Sichuan pepper, as well as a pike cutlet with dranik and mussel sauce — this is how this dish was served at the hotel in 1968.
A whole feast is planned for the Russian soul in love with dough: the menu includes dumplings with pike in rich broth with melted butter according to a historical recipe from 1977; dumplings with rabbit meat baked with porcini mushrooms and oyster mushrooms; as well as cabbage rolls with venison and sauerkraut sauce and kulebyak with sea bass, salmon, Kamchatka crab and Champagne sauce.
For the sweet — "Honey cake" with matzoni ice cream, the classic "Napoleon" from 1980 with burnt currants and apple charlotte with boiled condensed milk, ryazhenka ice cream and almonds.

"Together with Alexey Skladchikov and Artem Grachev, we strived to make this menu light. Now people want something summery and fresh."
The updated summer menu at SAVVA opens with a section of cold appetizers focusing on clean and juicy flavors. The Fruits de Mer platter (15000 rub.) includes sea urchins, oysters, scallops, and crab phalanges with kaimak and sabayon.

Salads are represented by two contrasting combinations – tuna and scallop with mixed greens (2550 rub.) under mango dressing; duck with baked beetroot (1650 rub.), goat cheese, and cherry sorbet, with maple-mustard dressing. As a light alternative –gravlax (2400 rub.) – a Scandinavian salmon dish with stracciatella or the author's Mimino tartare (2100 rub.) based on beef with adjika, yolk gel, wild garlic, and pickled jonjoli – Caucasian bladdernut buds, a traditional Caucasian delicacy that gives the dish a pleasant acidity. Served with warm wheat tortilla.
The transition to hot appetizers is set by green spinach risotto (1800 rub.), asparagus, goat cheese, and Murmansk scallop – a dish where creamy texture meets bright greens and delicate marine flavor. The vegetable block is a standalone direction. Here – baked beetroot (1200 rub.) is paired with gorgonzola and truffle, and seasonal vegetable sauté (1100 rub.) – with lemon cream and hazelnuts.
For main courses, the emphasis is on meat and fish, grilled or cooked in a hot pan, where precise temperature control emphasizes the natural texture and taste of the products. The menu includes Romanov sturgeon shashlik (4250 rub.) in tandoori marinade with raita sauce and fresh cilantro, lamb tournedos (2850 rub.) with mushroom duxelles and herb sauce, foie gras escalope (3100 rub.) with apple puree and berries, ravioli "Frutti di Mare" (3250 rub.) with octopus and langoustine filling. Those who appreciate conciseness in gastronomy can opt for halibut paired with pea cream (2500 rub.) or Karachay lamb liver (1350 rub.) with stewed onions and Uzbek tomato salad – without complex assemblies, but with character.
The dessert menu is also built on balanced creamy textures with bright fruity and floral profiles. Artem Grachev works at the intersection of classics and play: in "Green Herb Ice Cream" (850 rub.), wild strawberry jam, lime-rum mousse, and a crispy butterfly element are combined – a dessert inspired by summer at the dacha. "Anna" (950 rub.) – an author's interpretation of "Pavlova" with lavender cream, blackcurrant, and meringue crisp in the shape of a Michelin star petal. "Mint Cucumber" (850 rub.) is built on a sense of freshness: melon ice cream, cucumber marinated with mint, and passion fruit sauce. In addition, guests are recommended the classic "Medovik" (1100 rub.) – thin layers, sour cream and matsoni ice cream. The dessert is decorated with fresh berries.
The bar menu from the restaurant team offers light, expressive combinations of herbal and fruity notes, maintaining a dry and clean aftertaste. Sakura (1850 rub.) based on Japanese gin and yuzu – about balance and ethereal freshness; Acapulco (1250 rub.) combines strawberry, banana, and lemongrass in a soft, tropical blend with added Aperol; Mexico (1100 rub.) – about airy pineapple with a spicy ginger aftertaste and tequila notes. Green Light (850 rub.) – summer freshness of gooseberry and tarragon combined with sparkling wine; Oliver (1650 rub.) – a cocktail-dessert with cognac, pear, and grape bubbles, set for a slow finish.
On the restaurant's veranda overlooking the Bolshoi Theatre, you can gather summer in details – through dishes, drinks, fresh air, and the city's rhythm. "The menu has become more refined and airy, but at the same time has retained our signature style and recognizable handwriting," – says Andrey Shmakov. SAVVA subtly captures the season: in tastes, mood, and thoughtful atmosphere. All that remains is to join the rhythm.

The interactive dessert performance is accompanied by an unusual presentation that creates an atmosphere of romance — from tender sensations to passionate ardor. Guests will enjoy a cloud of fragrant smoke, created with liquid nitrogen and floral infusion, evoking associations with love euphoria. The culmination is the ignition of an elegant heart made of pyro-paper — a flash of flame symbolizes new stages and changes in relationships.
«The Art of Loving» is a dessert for those who cherish every moment together. To make the evening even more special, the team gives a small compliment with each item — a game for couples, developed by the «Beze» agency. 99 questions, created to recall the brightest moments, share intimate thoughts, and simply chat about everything, rediscovering each other. It's a wonderful way to remind yourselves of what's important and say what sometimes gets forgotten in the hustle and bustle of daily life.
The sweet special, created jointly with the «Beze» agency, is available at Savva restaurant à la carte from May 21 to June 30.
