词汇 borscht
词源
borscht; borscht belt. Borscht is a beet soup served hot or cold, often with sour cream, that is a great favorite in Jewish and Russian restaurants. The word derives from an East Slavic word meaning the same. The borscht belt is a resort area in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York. Once famous for its abundant food and entertainment—many notable comedians and singers got their start there—the borscht belt caters largely though not exclusively to a Jewish clientele from New York City. It takes its name from the popular beet soup noted above that was introduced to America by Russian Jews and is con- sumed in large quantities at the borscht belt or borscht circuit resorts.
