Olivier is one of the most famous salads in the CIS countries. However, in addition to the CIS countries, Olivier is also known in Europe. In European countries, the salad is not so popular. Grecian salad or Caesar is more honored by Europeans.

Olivier
the French use boiled meat, more often beef. They also prepare homemade mayonnaise or a similar flavor sauce.
