Sweet People (2010) 

Food on the go: Sweetcorn 

KYIV DESTINATION: Sweetcorn stalls


Near many metro station exits your nose will follow the aroma of cooked sweetcorn. A popular simple, but delicious food for people on the go. You simply eat it with a fork as you walk.
Corn on the cob is also available.
Ukraine is a huge producer of corn and that means prices are very reasonable. A large pot here will cost you around 50 Euro cents.
What's your favourite Ukrainian fast food?

If you prefer something smaller than a Pirog, then you can try little pies, or Pi

Believe'n'Peace (1999)  Maltese Connections  EUROVISION COUNTRY: Malta KYIV DESTINATIONS: Maltese Restaurant Porto; Dog friendly cafes in Kyiv Unlike many other European cities, Kyiv can boast of it's own Maltese restaurant, called Porto  http://porto-rest.com/en/ , which provides excellent (if expensive - at €20 a person) fish and southern Mediterranean dishes. It has been completely renovated last year. Below we show the before on the left, and the after on the right. Porto is located very close to Olympiska metro station, a corner kick away from the main football stadium. All is not what it seems, however, as the chef/owner is Serbian! The same can be said of another "Maltese" institution in Ukraine: The Sovereign Order of Malta:  http://forbes.net.ua/nation/1400976-posol-maltijskogo-ordena-v-ukraine-nasha-tradiciya-so-dnya-osnovaniya-byt-s-temi-kto-stradaet-i-n   The Order of Malta is a government without a territory or political or econom
