Pelmeni Honoring

 
From the MT:
"Giant Dumpling Monument Unveiled in Rural Russia"

A monument to Russian dumplings, called pelmeni, has been unveiled in the Ural Mountains region of Chelyabinsk. The statue of a bearded merchant with a giant dumpling on a table in front of him was installed outside Russia’s only museum devoted to the classic food, the Chelyabinsky Obzor news site reported Friday.  “A large pelmen is a joy for the mouth,” reads the inscription on the monument in the town of Miass. The statue was unveiled at a ceremony on Friday that included a dumpling-making competition.  

^ It's a little odd to have a monument to this, but I guess if they like it in their city it's fine. ^
