Thanks for the recommendation Bobko

Hasn't he recommended polonium tea or novichok soup to you yet?

Coffee ala Turkish was invented in communist times.

This was the name given to finely ground coffee, put into a glass and poured with boiling water. Meanwhile, coffee drunk in Turkey is definitely different from the Polish invention of the times of socialism. Real Turkish coffee should be brewed in a specially designed vessel. It is also prepared using iced water, which, when heated, extracts the desired flavor notes from the coffee. Leaving aside the confusion about how to brew coffee, the dominant drink in Turkey is... tea.

Which is also cooked and not just poured with boiling water.

With the proviso that 'tea' includes lots of powdered fruit drinks that end up being served in the same kind of traditional tea glass with no handle...

Ewww, nasty. I've never seen the appeal.

Communists drink that fruit 'tea' stuff.

Because for them, all proper tea is theft...

Tasty and with plenty of different flavours.

Rather you than me.

I remember when Marks and Spencer opened their food hall in Paris and the papers reported that a French woman had angrily returned a bag of pot pourri. She'd apparently thought it was a herbal tea and tried to drink some.

Moskaliki is a funny name cos it translates as little Russians (from Moscow region). They are marinated herring fillets.

There was even a joke about it which I heard in 1980s:

In the Polish restaurant menu all the dishes are crossed out due to acute economic crisis, only "Moskaliki" (pickled herring) are left at the end.

What a bunch of scumbags, not only did they eat everything, but they also signed it! - shouts the drunk guy indignantly.


hahahaha
