RTG host Olga Degtyareva began familiarising herself with the traditions of Russian cuisine in St. Petersburg at the Russian Museum of Ethnography. The museum is home to many artifacts that show a lot about the beliefs and traditions of Russian people, their daily life and their holiday customs. Then, with the help of the head chef from the Masha and the Bear Tavern, Olga prepared some traditional Russian dishes. Beef in a mushroom sauce and with a vegetable puree, boiled pierogi and drunken apples with honey were all on the menu.
