Sushi Russia's Most Popular Delivery Food


Sushi Russia's Most Popular Delivery Food

Nothing says the Russian holiday season like rolling up to an office party with… sushi rolls?

The food ordering and delivery app Delivery Club found that sushi was the most popular large advance order of the holiday season in Russia. They drew the same conclusion from March 8th Women’s Day orders.

Clearly, sushi is on a roll in Russia. Just don’t expect the Japanese version: almost all Russian sushi is made with cream cheese, and some even includes chicken and mayonnaise.

Continuing the trend of localized foreign foods, the second, third and fourth most popular orders were khinkali, kebabs and pizza.
