He visits the fresh market and samples Pine tree sap and all kinds of fruit and veggies from all over the world. At Midday, he treats himself with a typical Russian sweet snack. For dinner, he dines out at Traktyr with traditional Russian and Siberian dishes. And he can't finish the night without enjoying the local beer and vodka at one of the most popular spots in Ulan Ude.

Borscht (Engl)

Cold Borscht or Cold beet soup is a cold variety of borscht — beetroot soup traditional to some Eastern European and Slavic countries.

In Latvia it is called Aukstā zupa,in Lithuania Šaltibarščiai ,in Poland Chłodnik or Chłodnik litewski,In Belarusia
Хaлaднiк “khaladnik”,in Russia Свекольник “svekol’nik”, in Ukraine Холодник “kholodnyk”.

Borscht ( borsht, barszcz or borshch) is a soup that is popular in many Eastern and Central European countries. It is made with beetroot as a main ingredient, which gives it a strong red color. Other, non-beet varieties also exist, such as the tomato paste-based orange borscht and the green (zelioni) borscht (sorrel soup).
The soup is a staple part of the local culinary heritage of many Eastern and Central European nations.There are two main variants of borscht, the hot and cold. Both are based on beets, but are otherwise prepared and served differently.

(Cold pink Borscht in a glass)


Hot Borscht

Hot borscht (mostly Ukrainian and Russian), the kind most popular in the majority of cultures is a hearty soup with many common optional ingredients, depending on the cuisine, including various vegetables (beans, cabbage, carrots, cucumber, potatoes, onions, or tomatoes), mushrooms, and meats (chicken, pork, or beef). It is more similar to a stew than most soups, may be eaten as a meal in itself, usually with thick dark bread.

Food Safari: Croatia (Engl)

Croatia's central location in Europe means its cuisine offers the best of many different regions - along the beautiful Dalmatian coast, the food is Mediterranean, with many distinctly Italian influences. Further inland, what's known as continental Croatia is full of rich Austro Hungarian style dishes. The emphasis on food in both regions of Croatia is the same - the joy of getting extended families together.
