ACM Group

The company was founded in 2003 in St. Petersburg. Originally it was a "Personal Creative Architectural Workshop", created by architects-restorers who worked in the State Hermitage. Now "ACM Group" is a company of professional restorers, operating in many cities and regions of Russia - St. Petersburg and Leningrad region, Moscow, Astrakhan, Kaliningrad, Norilsk, in the Republics of Crimea and Karelia, the Chechen Republic, the Republic of Ingushetia and the Republic of Sakha, as well as carrying out international restoration projects in Europe and the Republic of Uzbekistan. According to the company's projects, more than 160 monument buildings have been restored.

The restaurant “Palkin” on Nevsky Prospekt 47 in St. Petersburg celebrates the 240th anniversary of the opening of its first restaurant in August.

Before the October Revolution, “Palkin” differed from other elite restaurants in that it served Russian cuisine, and the waiters were dressed like the sexes in taverns. The institution was called the tsar of Russian cuisine.

During its existence the restaurant was visited by many famous public and cultural figures - Gogol, Dostoevsky, Leskov, Nekrasov, Saltykov-Shchedrin, Balmont, Blok, Merezhkovsky, Gippius, Gorky, Kuprin, Chekhov, painters Repin, Lukomsky and Sapunov, composers Glazunov, Rimsky-Korsakov, Tchaikovsky and others. For the same reason, the restaurant has been mentioned many times in classical works, for example, in Gogol's “Dead Souls” or in Chekhov's story “No Place”.

During Soviet times the restaurant was closed and its interiors were completely destroyed. More than 25 years ago, the ACM project recreated the famous restaurant.
