Sushi and Martinis

Sushi and martinis are extremely popular in Moscow. Of course, there are restaurants offering just about every cuisine of the world here, but currently, especially among the young professionals, it’s sushi that is the default. Sushi is so ubiquitous that a Russian friend asserted that it can now be considered Russian cuisine.

Advertising

In case you haven't noticed, the google ads at the top of my blog are getting more and more strange. If this continues, I may have to discontinue the service. I haven't earned anything yet for having them there, so there doesn't seem to be much point. It was obvious that they used to be chosen by key words in my blog entries, for example when I wrote about coffee shops the ads were all related to coffee. It was kind of fun to see what kind of ads each new entry would bring. Now the ads just seem to be a showcase for all that is strange on the internet (besides me and some of my safely anonymous blog commenters, anyway).
