Hell's Kitchen

In Russia, cooking is not simply a culinary activity; it is considered a sport, even a battle. If you happen to be cooking with someone else, be ready to stand your ground.

Russians enthusiastically exchange recipe ideas, often engaging in lively debates and even playfully brandishing pots and pans if they disagree. Fancy some Beef Stroganoff? Well, brace yourself for a culinary showdown! And don't be surprised if someone grabs a bottle of Smirnoff to enjoy a drink while they cook!
