Cabbage does NOT cure hangovers.

If ever I'm hungover, I usually crave stodge. I'm talking Chinese food, Dominos Pizza, French sticks, basically just all the carbs. In Tver I haven't found anything so far that fits this brief, other than potatoes and the food from Chicken House, but I'm not a huge fan of Chicken House. So last night, I finally felt well enough to get some food and decided to go to 'Pan' in search of some mediocre mash.

In the queue I felt hungry. I felt brave. I chose puréed potatoes and pork, but also ordered 'Голубцы' (Golubtsi) which are cabbage leaves stuffed with meat and rice. WHY did I choose them. I literally have no idea. I think I was suddenly overcome with a wave of bravery and ravenous hunger and I wanted to eat something more Russian. This definitely wasn't a good idea. I just felt so ill once I sat down with my tray of food. Also, if you know me well, then you'll know about my aversion to certain food textures etc so stuffed cabbage leaves were definitely not the right choice. On another day maybe. Definitely, DEFINITELY not when hungover. Stick to plain foods!
