Brian Perry Associates, London for Morpasflot Moscow 1986. The Russian people are a great seafaring nation. This comes as no surprise when one realises that the land mass of the Soviet Union is bounded by 14 seas. In some 47.000 kilometres of sea coast there are many important and beautiful ports: Leningrad, Riga, Odessa. Archangel and the ice-free port of Murmansk to name but a few. The Russian merchant fleet not only plays a major part in the national economy, it also helps to promote cultural life. There is simply no better way than by accommodating people of several nationalities on a ship. Whatever their background. all passengers share a love of the sea. which makes for a most enjoyable and congenial atmosphere. That's why the luxury cruise liners that ply the oceans are ships of peace and friendship. Russian ships are graceful and built to the highest specification - but that's only the beginning. The crew on board. from the captain down to the junior purser. has been trained to the most exacting standards in order to ensure the safety and comfort of some 52 million passengers each year. Morpasflot maintains 11 regular international passenger line services which connect the USSR with more than 30 ports in 19 countries around the world. It is possible to reach the Soviet Union from all major ports of Western Europe. as well as from the Near, Middle and Far East. This cruising cookbook will take you on a culinary memory sea lane. starting from the fleet's home base, Russia. As you will find out when you take a cruise. Russian cuisine is one of the great delights and surprises a 'gourmet' can have! Forget about slimming diets once in a while and let the Russians teach you what "spoiling yourself' is all about!
