Pork with berries and russian squid balls...

Erm...E assumed that they didn't mean that literally...it sounds so wrong but tasted pretty good. The gerkin (pickle) is a unusual but welcome side.

Other funny entries on the menu that were passed up included drunken irish fingers and crispy balls of pig.

This is what you can whip up for breakfast from a random Russian fridge :) Thinly sliced bacon with eggs, bran crackers, bread, coffee, and gin & tonic. Yum!! Should we mention the ginger vodka for morning tea?

Thanks very much to my hosts! I never met you but your place was great - E
