Russian Foods

Today, I ate Russian foods for the first time. I found a Russian restaurant near my house, so I went there with my friend. I enjoyed Borscht, mashed potato, salad, and chicken with bean source. They were so delicious! It was fresh that the staple was potato because I usually eat rice as my staple. I want to eat another foreign country's dish. Do you have any recommendations?

Russian Foods Russian Foods

While "food" is an uncountable noun, "foods" can technically be correct when writing about a specific kind of food. So "Russian foods" or "healthy foods" is grammatically correct. But just writing "food" is also correct (and has the same meaning) in these examples. I find it easier to just use "food."

Today, I ate Russian foods for the first time.


Today, I ate Russian foods for the first time. Today, I ate Russian food for the first time.

"Russian food" = "Russian cuisine"
