Really...


They come all the way to London, one of the great food capitals and you want to serve them "Russian Food"


You're a weirdo ( my kinda weirdo ) no ? Take them to Won Kei, that'll do their heads in


But on a serious note, there's shed loads of very good food here


Or try Lidl


Pfffft....

no Annette- they have been in the uk for a month eating "our" food- I just thought I would make a little effort to buy/ make a few things - but trying to avoid a jar of caviar......

Lidl might be the answer-last time I was there i loaded up on croque monsiuers(?) and lasagna-

There's a Polish place in Camberwell on Church Street with things like pierogis - also the Polish restaurant restaurant at Elephant and Castle called Mamuska, which might hit the spot. The Southbank Food fair every weekend - Friday, Sat. and Sunday nr. Waterloo Station also has a Polish place.

Why not get some ingredients tomorrow and make some homemade Perogies to go alongside some standard British fare? They're very traditional (Ukrainian but close) and great served with some pickle /sour cream alongside some decent salads and you can make your own fillings (cheese and onion etc).


They'll also appreciate that you made the effort yourself...don't worry about the dough being slightly stretchy - it's supposed to be.

There is, or certainly was, a tiny Russian food shop/deli on Cornwall Road, just off the Cut, in Waterloo that sells Russian meats and cheeses amongst other things. I'm not sure of the name as it was in Cyrillic, but if you google 'Russian Shop, Waterloo' it should come up.


Alternatively, for a taste of the 'old' Russia, get him to join the queue at Wm. Rose on a Saturday morning. When he gets to the front, tell him he's got the wrong voucher, the food is only for Politburo members and give him the steering rack for a 1978 Lada 1200 instead.

There is a shop near the LLane Sainsburys called, I think, East European foods, which sells quite a bit of Russian type food. Worth going to just to see the phalus shaped bottle of liquor on the shelf behind the counter. Ideal Christmas present for your jovial uncle.

    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
    • We have had 4 greyhounds - the last one, a bitch, was not speyed so we  had to pay for that at our local vet.  Only one dog was nervous around children and only one was cat friendly.
    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down!
