Seems to have been in the Soviet Union is nothing more vile and disgusting than the food and drinks. No, of course, it was the elite restaurants - "Moscow", "Prague" and "Capital". Or the restaurant "Central" that was near Yeliseyev deli on Gorky Street. But in the remaining institutions have been loathe to shiver.

Disgusting quality food, cooked on the ugly army shortenings of rotten food, magically combined with the wild rudeness waiters throws in the face of the visitors menu and kilograms contempt. How not to forget the first love, and everyone who lived in the Soviet Union can not be forgotten aluminum fork without teeth, dirty countertops, unwashed glasses, glass cones with tomato juice, diluted beer, and the humiliation to which you popped the top ten snobby administrator to held by the queue for a free table - it just hit in the Soviet restaurant was impossible. Or consider a mixture of arrogance and condescension with which the "criminals" the waiters are able to put customers on the spot: "Veal tenderloin on the grill is not only schnitzel!" But first love is a first love, and today we fondly remember the details of our campaigns, "the taverns" as secretly refilled in carafes brought with vodka as a shy young ladies invited to the "ballads". And of course, with a particular emotion we remember the then Soviet public catering prices. Ah, what then were the prices!
