Is that sour cream in the soup on the top right... or mashed potatoe?

    borscht on the bottom left? fuck me that's a great looking lunch, like the kind of thing you'd pay a lot of money for nowadays at a fancy overpriced restaurant

      Looks like an above average cafeteria meal. Apparently it cost like 50cents in USSR money.

        sure but look at the intentionality, you know? each element is arranged in a way that makes it look like the sound it made being served was something other than "plop" lol it looks good because it doesn't look like it was treated like slop

          Fr, if they're pulling off half decent presentation then chances are the rest of the food is pretty good too. You don't learn that weird stuff until you know basics
