Pavel Kukarskikh left his native Yekaterinburg for Ottawa, Canada, when the 1998 financial crisis hit, convinced it was impossible to do business in Russia. Three years later he was back, and today he runs 16 kebab stands, a family diner called Sunday and McPeak, a burgeoning hamburger chain with eight outlets that he says McDonald's recently offered to buy. McDonald's says it approached him as part of its attempt to find prime locations for its own restaurants as it expands across Russia...
...Collingham tells the story of how the culinary habits of conquerors and conquered got jumbled up in India with great flair, drawing on historical records and local lore to color her tale.

...gloomy days. Tempest Road in Leeds, West Yorkshire, is one of them, a Victorian street built on the cheap for textile mill workers and on the slide, pretty much, ever since. On this mercilessly sunny day, a group of young British-Asian men are gathered outside the King Kebab, a takeaway joint on the end of a strip of budget shops that appear to be closed much of the time. Ali, Pav, Shy, Raja, Safi, Asif and Hasif are talking about their friend Kaki, another local boy, born nine miles from their Beeston neighborhood. "He was the best lad," says...
