From Russia to Angola… with taste!




Angola and Russia seem to be two distant countries, but not in Expo! On august 13, the respective culinary traditions came together for an afternoon under the banner of taste and melting pot.

Sergey Biniavsky, sub-chef of the renowned “Café Puskin” in Moscow and Luís “Kitaba”, chef at the Angolan Pavilion, created an exclusive dish: mousse with Kisaca (cassava leafs), peanuts and tomatoes on a traditional dark Borodinsky bread with lemon butter.


The endless plantations of rye in the north of Russia and the cassava growing in the warm and bright Angolan soil, were united for a taste very much enjoyed by the participants of the degustation. 


The afternoon was framed by traditional Angolan dances by Kina Ku Moxi, who enchanted the Expo public.

The Angolan gastronomy, full of influences, versatile, decided and well adaptable to travel to different countries and peoples. What will be the next destination?
