I like the food in Russia a lot, I thought it would be terrible because most Chinese believe that Russian food is terrible but when I traveled there it exceeded my expectations.

we eat Chinese crepes as our breakfast it could contain anything you like, there is the crepe as the first layer and inside we can add some sauce / meat / vegetable. / and you can choose the filling ….
The crepe could be salty and the sauce sugary that makes a nice mix and it is very tasty.
