On the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok on Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping continued to bond in the kitchen. The pair of world leaders were filmed preparing Russian pancakes on the griddle, topping them with black and red caviar before washing them down with a shot of vodka.
This bizarre bake-off comes after Putin visited China earlier this year, where he was taught how to make baozi and jianbing by a Chinese chef. Following the humbling experience, Putin presumably wanted some revenge.
