A wonderful mushroom soup - probably 50% cream but very tasty.

A great dessert. Just a shame the waiter cut himself just before serving it.

Perhaps only in Lithuania - beer ice cream. It was actually quite tasty in a yeasty, malty, lemony sort of way.

A Lithuanian school dinner, boiled potato and a chicken Kiev - though it may have a different name in Lithuania. Very tasty.

The famous Lithuanian Zeppelini! I had some wonderful Lithuanian food but sadly Zeppelini cannot be added to this list. These lard-filled dumplings filled with grisly mince would be more useful as ballast for a real Zeppelin.

The inside of a zeppelini… The bucket? Over there in the...oh dear, too late.

In contrast, these cheesy pancakes, served in the same restaurant, were wonderful. Great texture, crunchy and creamy and tangy cheese inside.

Beetroot soup. Normally eaten in summer, it was delicious. It is eaten cold with slices of fried potatoes.

Sakotis, special Lithuanian cake. Unusual design and interesting texture, it actually tastes quite nice. Usually eaten at Christmas.
