SALAD:    Vinaigrette

There’s something wonderfully grounding about a bowl of vinaigrette — the kind of salad that feels like it’s been passed from one generation’s table to the next. Earthy beets, tender potatoes, and sweet carrots come together with bright pickles and sauerkraut, creating that unmistakable balance of comfort and sparkle. It’s simple, honest, and quietly beautiful, the sort of dish you make when you want color in winter and a little nostalgia in every bite.

MAIN COURSE:    Savory Crepes with Cheese, Ham & Herbs

Savory blini are a classic dish in Russian home cooking, where thin crepes are often made both sweet and savory. This version mixes cheese, ham, and fresh herbs directly into the batter, creating flavorful, ready-to-eat crepes that are soft, slightly crispy, and perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a cozy snack.

DESSERT:    Carmen

The Carmen Torte is a rich, dramatic cake—often layered with chocolate, cream, and bright fruit accents—named to reflect the passion and elegance of Bizet’s famous opera.

   Skillet Fish Pie

This pie is one of those rare recipes that tastes like it came from the oven while being cooked entirely on the stovetop. It is an excellent choice for hot summer days, camping with a gas burner, vacation rentals, or any time you want a homemade meal without heating the entire kitchen. I also like that the batter is neutral enough to work with almost any savory filling, making it a recipe you'll come back to again and again.

   Bagels

   Bagels originated in the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe, most likely in Kraków in the 17th century. Their distinctive ring shape made them easy for street vendors to carry on wooden dowels. Jewish immigrants later brought bagels to New York City, where the famous chewy, boiled-then-baked bagel became a beloved breakfast classic.
