The closest thing to the salad they eat in Moscow is a salad with potatoes and mayonnaise, but no olives or bonito, among other various ingredients. That real Russian salad is called Olivier after the Belgian chef who invented it. What the Russian salads from Russia and Spain are similar to is that there is no consensus on the ingredients they should contain. There, they add everything f...
