Well, do you like caviar? It’s a tiny fish eggs in a salty water.  If you want to be fancy, try it with blinis - these are thin, buttery little pancakes with the caviar and onions on top.  Another dish that’s fancy, though a little more American, is foie gras, which is a fatty, delicious meat that a goose makes if it has been force-fed all the time.

I never tried caviar. I might like it.

The first time you try something new is often a little scary, and that is often true for food. If you are a little scared of caviar, I would recommend that you start out with another specialty: It’s called “Anton Shurygin”, which is a really rich, cheesy meat pie that you would cut in small pieces and dip in either vodka or vinegar.  For a sweet dish, you should try “Helene”, which is a beautiful dessert that you would make by pouring cream and meringue on top of a liquid dessert.

I don't see any dish called Anton Shurygin. I also don't see a dish called Helene, but I see one called Poire belle Hélène.

That dish is French for “beautiful pear Helen”.  A poire is a pear, and the name “Helen” comes from the story of Helen of Troy.  So it’s beautiful because it has a beautiful name.

I'll probably just try caviar for now.
