Description
This is the first book on the food cultures of Eurasia in a post-Soviet and geographic, social, and aesthetic context.

Reviews:
-Food historian Mack and Russian native and former journalist Surina provide a snapshot of contemporary food culture in the region, along with a bit of history to emphasize that culture is not static and to indicate what direction it might be heading. For students, culinary professionals, scholars, and enthusiasts, they describe major foods and ingredients, cooking, typical meals, eating out, special occasions, and diet and health. —Reference & Research Book News
-This is a book that needs reading from cover to cover if you really want to get to grips with a cuisine about which little is known in the West. —Menu Magazine
