Hi Guys,
I just had to share with you my little story from Russia.
I was there for the first time for 3 weeks after 27 years.
The next question everybody asks is:"things changed huh"...well let me tell yes they did BUT...it is all the same crap just different smell now...the most corrupt, burocratic society with no customer service and absolutely no comfort for people that live there.
Anyways, back to my little story.
Downstairs of the apartment we lived in was a chinese restaurant. So Joel(my b/f) says that it would be really fun to eat chinese food in Russia. Kind of different experience considering there is NO chinese people in Russia and you are served by 6 foot blue eyed blonde dressed in chinese outfit.
So, Joel loves egg rolls and I am looking at the next table and I see people have them on their plate. I started looking through the menu and I just could not find the darn things. Menu is in Russian so I figured I am just not seeing it right. I call the waitress and I show her egg rolls on the other table and I said..you know, I just cannot see them on the menu, can you please show them to me. She opens a page...and guess what they are called in Russia........now guess before you look at the answer.......................................................................................................................BLINTZES with MEAT.
The End.
