Snacking 


There's an endless world of Ukrainian snacks. Many are designed to accompany beer. The flavours reflect Ukrainian foods that traditionally go with beer. Many have a fish content, because various forms of dried fish are a usual accompaniment. In Ukraine dried rye bread  replaces the potato chip.
The flavours shown above are: Brawn with horseradish; Porkfat with beetroot horseradish and sturgeon.

To the left we have calamari- flavoured breadsticks. Below we have bacon balls and sour cream rings for the youth market.

What's your favourite Ukrainian snack?

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
