Back to my fave restaurant for dinner again today, my last day in Dushanbe.
This is what in Europe we call Russian salad, but throughout the SU it was rather ironically known as Olivier, named after the fancy French chef of some pre-revolutionary nobleman. It looked better than this pic gives credit for and tasted good too. Diced cooked potato and carrot, diced gherkins, cooked peas, chopped boiled egg, ham etc in mayonnaise.
Sadly this bread was a little stale.
I couldn't resist fried quail, could I? The pattern round the plate is made up of sliced cucumber and olives, a dod of tomato and lettuce. The sauce was a sort of sweet chilli sauce.
Total cost about $9.
