I've spent much of this week looking up all the different kinds of food. Its no good to know how to order food if you don't know what the Russian dishes are.
Here are a couple I've Googled the recipes for:
bleeni s eekroy ... pancakes with caviar > potato pancakes with caviar
bleeni sa smeetanay ... pancakes with sour cream > potato pancakes with sour cream
borshch ... borshch > a beet soup
akroshkoo ... okroshka > a cold greens-based soup
aseetreenoo pa rooskee ... poached sturgeon with tomato sauce and vegetables
pel'menee ... pelmeni
Pelmeni sounds especially good. Its a sort of mincemeat ravioli deal, it sounds really good.
I've also looked up a lot of badly translated Russian dishes from the Ruscusine website (www.ruscusine.com). I found this recipe for for Zebra cake that sounds so easy I might have to make it for you guys.
I've learned that the majority of Russian dishes are high is protein and simple carbohydrates. I guess the cold kind of made that cusine evolove. Lots of potato dishes. I mean LOTS.
