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.

    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....
