Typical food and drink in Russia

You will find that Russia has some wonderfully distinctive national dishes, such as the bright crimson beet and red cabbage soup, borscht, or the tangy and delicious salted herring. Russia’s eastern influence is seen in the mouth-watering shashlik, which are skewers of barbecued spiced meat or fish served with flatbreads and Russian pickles. Mouthwateringly good!
