"They were big" - one of the first Kiev fast food. Located very well - near the metro station "Khreschatyk". It used to be surrounded by expensive boutiques and jewelry stores, today it is adjacent to a beer bar and Sushi.

Little has changed here. The same swing gate separates the distribution hall from the entrance.

As before, you can pick up (or even pile up with a slide) salads and snacks in the salad bar. Of course, a lot depends on the season, but there are usually fresh and pickled vegetables, a variety of pickles, salads. One serving bowl now costs UAH 19.50. Experienced eaters build a kind of tower and usually decorate everything with tomatoes.

Zdorovenki has an excellent and varied range of dishes. These are 4-5 types of the first: borsch, broth, solyanka, brine, etc. , in the summer also okroshka.
Honestly, I've never tried any of this - not an amateur)))

Large selection of meat (meatballs, steaks, cutlets, liver, goulash, chakhokhbili, kebabs, julienne, etc.
) and fish dishes (cutlets, meatballs, stuffed, boiled or fried fish), portioned salads (fur coat, shopska, mimosa, ladies, etc. ), side dishes (porridge, casserole, stew, beshbarmak, risotto, pilaf). There is even a side dish bar: up to 15 types at a single price (today 11.50 UAH). I don't know the details - I wasn't interested.
I am a true conservative - I always take polpette from fegato (liver cutlet with garlic-mayonnaise sauce). I fell in love with its name, although I do not use garlic or mayonnaise)))

The range of dumplings and pancakes definitely indicates that we are in the capital of Ukraine: I have not met such a variety anywhere. I can't judge the taste myself - I don't eat, but my friends enjoy it.

And, of course, pastries - pies with meat, cheese and spinach, mushrooms, cabbage, apples, cherries. There are also cake cakes, but this is not the strongest side of the kitchen.

Pizza is popular, there is even delivery. Edible, but not divine. Although the price is different.
The bar area is separate: coffee (UAH 9–13.5), milkshakes, cakes and beer. Of the disadvantages - I wanted mulled wine, but it is not on the menu.

Since the institution is more than 12 years old, of course, it is somewhat obsolete, but the guys try to meet the challenges of the time.
Yes, now the original Ukrainianized halls (India, Egypt, China and Greece) with funny genre scenes from the life of the Cossacks look a bit funny.
But there are still many cozy corners, comfortable sofas and comfortable tables, delicious food and very affordable prices.
