To enjoy Alaskan cuisine one must love fish. Salmon, halibut and trout feature heavily on most menus. The delicious caribou stew is another favorite. Russian dishes, such as borscht, feature in some towns.

Alaskan delicacies include smoked salmon, wild berry products and reindeer sausage. The legal drinking age is 21 but Alaska has several ‘dry’ villages where any possession of alcohol is illegal.
