You are well spoken and personable, I'd like to see you do some videos on sporting events and leisure activities enjoyed by Russians.
These look delicious! I'd love to try the potatoes and the porridge.
There is excellent youtube channel about russian cuisine - "life of Boris" , also very entertaining, really funny and creative guy from some ex-soviet country.
What l am really impressed with is just how clean and orderly Moscow streets are. Thankyou very much for this vlog.
I visited Russia during the World Cup football. Teremok was my go-to place because it offered Russian style food and it was everywhere. They should expand outside Russia.
Not the best thing to encourage the Russians to do during its in-vays-yun of You-crane right now, is it?
@@primalconvoy no
This is very popular in Sweden aswell. Its called Bakad Potatis(Baked Potato). Its made in exactly the same way like in Russia
This potato thing is surprisingly delicious, when I had kumpir in Turkey I was pretty shocked at how good it was. Seems simple but really good.
We also have that stuffed potatoes in Brazil with lots of different combinations... and it's so tasty and filling... New sub. Love the content! Cheers from a brazilian lad livind in Irelad.
Love your videos! Every one of your videos that I've seen has been great!!!🙏
Thank you!😊
I love baked potatoes with toppings. In US, the toppings are not so rich. But potatoes are a healthier option than greezy fried food, and very filling.
Pancakes Look yummy too.
When I was a kid the uk had lots of baked potato takeaways. They were great value. They had names like spud you like or Mr spud. Think Scotland still has some. They are definitely better than a Mac Donald’s.
If people had any idea what was in the burgers, and what the fries do to them, they'd never enter another McDonalds ever again. Ever.
@@G-ra-ha-m smokers still smoke when they know what it does to them and some even lose family members or friends to it. Don’t doubt our humans ability to ignore correct habits in favour of short term happiness.
We had baked potato places too in the US in shopping malls back in the 80s. I remember one I ordered at a lot was called 1 Potato 2. The topping options were great and the prices low. I loved the chili cheese with sour cream.
We had lots of baked potato take out places in the US some years ago.I remember this place i used to go to in downtown Boston when I was much younger.They had twice baked potatoes with yummy toppings of melted cheddar cheese, bacon, sour cream and different vegetables.People in the US are more health conscious now.They prefer avocado toasts and baby kale greens instead of baked potatoes loaded with one thousand calories.
@@matildesantos4215 Baked potatoes are healthy. So is full fat butter and cheese.
Don't confuse total calories with health: there is very little connection. In fact the most dangerous fats are the hydrogenated vegetable fats and oils.
I had a Russian neighbor, she made those pancakes for me once . It was for breakfast with fruit butter and Suger it was really good
Every country has its own fast food, or street food, and it is usually excellent. I think we all can survive without American fast food. Great video!
It's going to be more than American fast food. You have a hurricane.. and economic hurricane coming but that you have yet to feel
@@AceRamone The west has a large reset coming. It's going to be grim.
@@AceRamone who has an economic hurricane coming?
@@ancientartrevived Russia
@@AceRamone Ah right. Perhaps but I think we'll be surprised. Our media told/is telling us already that Russia is suffering hard and it simply is not the case. As Eli from Russia's channel shows, as well lots of other reporting there. March GDP was higher than the previous year. Ruble/USD rate is stronger than pre-conflict. But I agree there will be struggles but it is something the Russians will overcome with their traditional survivalist spirit.
I don't think Russia is missing anything with McDonald's leaving . Actually Russia is pretty lucky they have left.
We have a restaurant here that does baked potatoes and I love pineapple and ham on mine.
Nice, with Eli from Russia. :) Thank you so much.
I'd love to try all those different foods. After decades of eating at McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Burger King, Pizza Hut (and many more), one wants something different. Eli and other Russian vloggers have talked about all kinds of different food dishes in many regions of Russia. And different kinds of beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). I'd like to try those too.
for kroshka: in the U.S. we call it a baked potato and in U.K. it's a jacketed potato. Love the channel! Very cool to see life in Russia.
You used the word "brânză" to describe the white cheese on your potato. This is the exact word for cheese in Romania, where I'm from. I hope I heard it correctly and that you can understand what word I'm reffering to from the Romanian spelling... I would love to know if "brânză" is the same word for cheese in Russian too.
I loved your video!
Брынза is a soft salty kind of cheese. The usual kind of cheese is called сыр [sir]
Also in Slovakia:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryndza
probably because of
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlachs
Well, in Russian it spelled as "брынза", and it is not an original Russian word, but it came to us from Moldova(I believe that).
Glad to see both of you in the same video . my Favorite Russian Optimistic Bloggers .
Those baked potatoes: I think we sometimes call them "loaded potates." Back in the early 90s in the U.S. we sometimes had self-serve "potato bars" with very similar toppings. Haven't seen it for long time though.
They're still around in the United States, and we've had them since the 1980's. They're very similar to what was shown in the video.
In UK, they're called "jacket potatoes" or "baked potatoes". Traditionally, British people mash in any combination of butter/margarine/equivalent "spread", mayonnaise, salt, pepper, grated cheddar cheese, baked beans in tomato sauce, etc (or all of them!). In Japan, during street festivals, or in tourist street stalls, you can sometimes get them with butter and mayonnaise (mixed with "mentaiko" and spicy sauce, wasabi, etc), or even just butter and soy sauce.
Thank you for your great videos. It looks like you won’t miss McDonalds at all and you are probably better without them. I’m extremely happy to see that sanctions are not having a big impact on the lives of normal people.. Russia and Russian people looks very nice.
You know Zangieff, that potato is much healthier if the entire potato is eaten. Not just the inside. Thanks for being with Zangieff, Eli. I did try Russian fast food one time. LOL!! Very funny story. I will have to tell Zangieff about it sometime.
Since McDonald's left Russian,I lost 23 pounds and still counting!
One wag said that McDonald’s exit will increase Russian life expectancy by 4 years.
Hoping we can try one day …. but travel not likely anytime soon 😱 due to this senseless war. Take care and thanks for the vlogs on how life is for every day people.
More Eli is always welcome, thanks Zanhieff.
Here in the UK in places like Birmingham where I live there are kiosks that sell jacket potatoes (baked potatoes) with fillings like grated cheese, baked beans, chilli etc (a favourite is chilli with cheese). There were shops called Spud U Like but they went bankrupt, however, the brand has been revived by TV chef James Martin and some of the fillings are a bit fancier - it costs about £4 for a potato there.
I watch Eli everytime. Now I have discovered you
Teremok is the best! All kind of common russian food for chidren! bliny, soups, porridge, with add what's you want, cheap, clean, and loveĺ
Thank you for the video. I'd like to make one small clarification. Corporations like McDonald's chose, on their own, to leave the Russian market. These companies did not leave due to sanctions, which are actions from a government. At least for the American companies, the government did not order them to leave.
greedy rip off mcds is anyway.
@@ExcelMark Bullshit...they are sill in evil Ccp China and Saudi Arabia genocides in Yemen.
America NATO killed millions in Iraq,Afgan ,Vietnam and dropped 2 "TWO" nukes on Japanese civilians ..
I am a 92 Iraq vet disabled for a fake evil war based on lies for Kuwait oil..😡
This is an opportunity for Russians to take USA market share.
@@ExcelMark I guess it is down with rodents covered in Afghan, Iraqi, Libyan, yadda yadda blood. Which is great, as I am one of that particular form of rodent. May we all rise to become less rodentlike one day.
@@lordinquis8r679 yeah good luck with those potatoes and porridge instead of cheeseburgers and fries, LOL
Excellent when I was in Moscow some years ago I tried all! The pancakes are delicious! Well done guys! Uhmmm
Zangieff, in today's livestream I asked you if there was any fastfood that sold more traditional Russian food. I only now saw that you uploaded a video about just that, 3 months ago! Sorry, I hadn't seen it! I've just watched it now and Teremok and Kroška Kartoška are exactly what I meant in my question! I would definitely have to try those if I ever visit Russia. As well as their non-fastfood chain counterparts, of course.
Anyway thanks for your videos, you're such a nice man and your videos are very interesting to watch and you're always so well spoken.
Congratulations on 30k subscribers, you deserve all of them and much more. Keep it up with everything!
Love from Italy!
This looks a lot healthier than macdonalds
Hello Eli and Zangieff! ❤️🌱
I agree that these are the 2 most successful Russian fast food companies ;)
John R. From Minnesota USA. Wow! After seeing these so-called fast food choices??. Even if there were still McDonald's in Russia,, I would choose stuffed potatoes and the pancakes over McDonald's any day of the week))). As for the sandwich,,🤔,,. Lol)
Wish we had these food places here in the US.
@@stevezettle3212 Except we do, at most malls.
Awesome. Nice to see you guys. Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for sharing.
Im from America and i really dont care for McDonald's..i do like some of their breakfast (egg) items, but that's about it.. Love the idea of a loaded baked potato bar tho...hmmm..maybe i should open my own quick restaurant for this concept 💡 😁
John R, Minnesota USA. Good job to both you and Ellie! I am big fan of both your channels!
You don’t miss anything after low quality /junk food Mcdonald is closed! believe me
Thank you for showing us Russian fast food. We had blinis prepackaged at the supermarket in Paris. We usually did them with caviar & sour cream but I think the salmon would be even better. We have "stuffed" potatoes in the US. They are not as big & there aren't so many toppings but restaurants that have "salad" bars--even fast food places like Wendy's--would have a potatoe bar with baked potatoes & variety of toppings. Do any of your fast food places offer borscht? Cold beet borscht is one of my favorite things in the summer. I am vegan, so no meat & instead of sour cream I use cocnut based yogurt with it.
Looks yummy! Thanks for sharing. Yes where one door closes another will open. 😘
Fun Fact: The Owner I worked for back in the 80's rubbed elbows with Joan Kroc, widow of Ray Kroc, who bought the business from the McDonald Brothers and turned it into the billion-dollar company you know as McDonalds. She came to our Christmas company dinner, and I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Kroc, we mourned her passing as she was a good friend of our boss. R.I.P., San Diego loved you always
I laughed when she said “blin” 😅 I always thought that was a rude word/exclamation of surprise or irritation… ‘What the blin?!’ 😆
I like Tepemok when I'm in Russia. It's got a lot of healthy choices 😀
of course when i get the chance i'll travel to Russia.... the plan was to travel to St Petersburg.... but Covid delayed it.... and now the troubles.... but one day, i promise, i'll travel in your country. Your videos are great....
I'll take a potato 🥔 with toping over a Burger anytime, greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨 Russian federation 🇷🇺.
Dreamming of the day when Kroshka Kartoshka finally comes to my town 😃 I have never tried it...
Kroshka Kartoshka, I love how that sounds. 😀
It's always interesting to try different foods in other countries, I wouldn't want McDonald's if I visit Italy or Germany for instance there's enough of them here in the United States.
SO awesome to see you two together!!!
.. Cheers to you and Eli ..
You guys make a great team! You should definitely make more videos together.
I would like to visit Russia esp. st. Petersburg.
Your local fastfood is interesting.😊
Wow! Good job you Russians! I guess your potato is much healthier than MacDonalds' french fries. We also have lots of traditional fast food brands that eventually became competitor to MacDonalds. Great video!!
Not for much longer. Even now, there are other Russian TH-camrs showing how empty their own shopping centres are and how expensive, small (and sometimes even green/toxic) local potatoes now are, due to sanctions/companies refusing to do business with Russia (and thus export fresh or processed potato products to Russia).
When I go to Russia, I will try that. Looks good.
In America that's called, "loaded baked potato"
Wow. I love baked foods especially breads and muffins and traditional pies also. 😋❤️🌱
Kroshka Kartoshka really reminded me of the concept of Chipotle, Qdoba, and Bibibop here in the US with the whole quick serve and customizable meals. It’s just interesting to see a baked potato as a base compared to rice or noodles. It definitely sucks that I don’t have any restaurants that serve any Russian dishes near me. Though I’m sure y’all are feeling the same way with the lack of McDonald’s now as well as not having the amazing Italian-American food the US is known for.
The US is known for its Italian-American food all right... but "amazing" is definitely not the word anyone outside the US would use for it.
@@tbirdparis Idk about that one, there’s some pretty damn good stuff here. I also forgot to mention how great southern BBQ is.
@@Светлана-ф4с8н Here in the US, a lot of us live busier life styles such as my parents and I where we usually don’t ever have time to plan a meal, get the ingredients, and cook and we tend to always eat out a lot since they work a lot and I’m still in school and have a lot of other stuff I do in my daily life. We did cook a lot more during the quarantine days of COVID since we had a lot of time then as it felt like the world wasn’t progressing. Though as we have gone back to our normal lives, we’re all back to having a lack of time.
We usually only eat McDonald’s like once or twice a month because it is unhealthy and typically get carry out from places in our area that are a bit healthier like Qdoba and Mission BBQ. Though McDonald’s can be a convenient dinner option for us on days where we are really limited on time.
We always make breakfast at home during the week since making a bowl of cereal or toasting bread is easy and quick. Sometimes we eat it at restaurants on the weekend as something to do. We usually always eat dinner out on the weekend when we have time to cook just to get out of the house and have something to do.
Sorry for the long comment, I’m just really bad at explaining things simply lol.
@@Светлана-ф4с8н Извините, я не знал что вы не говорите по-английски. Я бы напечатал все по-русски, если бы мой русский был лучше. Для меня вполне нормально отклоняться от темы в разделах интернет-комментариев.
Maybe it’s time for enterprising ppl to start hamburger food trucks. That’s what I would do. A small flat top, sandwich cooler, small fryer. French fries have a insanely high up sale. Two giant drink dispensers with lemonade or ice tea would be profitable to.
Thank you about your information about russian fast food, closed fast food restaurant like kfc,mcd,burger king,subway,starbucks, and coffee bean in russia 🙏🏻greeting from indonesia
If u watch video. Behind him was open McDonald’s. Aka not all branches are closed with kfc and Burger King being most open .
hope more content with eli. you are a perfect match.
They say on US radio that Russian coffee houses are the best in the world because of the cakes and pastries. Could you show us Russian coffee shops?
Good to see you, Eli! I like your channel.
Love ❤ to see you sister ELi🤞🏻
Hi ... your potatoes is not a brisket .... but it will do 😉 the pancake and porriedge looks good too 😋
McDonalds: Big Mac with Fries and a supersize drink.
McStalins: One potato, one vodka ration.
Nice to see you together guys.... Just little suggestion for Zangieff, Рубль in English is pronounced as Рубл, not Рабл. Otherwise it sounds like Rubble, and give all different meaning.
Wonderful! Now I'm starving.
I could see the Burger King franchise still open. They must be commemorating McDonald's decision to shoot itself in the foot.
Anything would be a better substitute to MacDonalds. It seems very good.
I keep Russia on my bucket list for beter times....hopefully not too far in the future 🙏
Get used to a VERY long wait.
Informative topic and a great video!
I dont go to McDonalds in USA way to expensive and not healthy.
You are better off not having western junky food.
Stay positive.
Love you two .
Tzastrovia from NYC.
Exists in Northern California which used to be part of Imperial Russia.
Good to know that there are good, perhaps better, alternatives. I have never entered Macdonalds or any other international US fastfood place. Your food looks delicious. I am sure that I would prefer Russian alternatives.
so if you like Burgers, you need to go to Svinigorod short out of Moscow. They have a nice little Restaurant there which will provide you with tasty rabbit burgers. I enjoyed them a few times two years ago when i worked at Valio.
@@Светлана-ф4с8н sorry 😉
@@Светлана-ф4с8н and to correct both of us : it's Swenigorod.
Brother Z!, Sister E! A very interesting culinary perspective. The both of you seem much more calm and relaxed.
Calmer probably due to the lack of McDonalds toxins.
I live for many years in America, but rarely eat at fast food and prefer so-called family restaurants, where the food normally is a level better.
Yes, I would like to see everything Russian in your feeds of course not the language 😀. We like to watch Russia through Russian eyes. Thank you for making so wonderful videos🙏.
You are both amazing!
I still want to visit Russia, I know the Russian people are nice and it’s not their fault for todays events it’s the governments problem…
Great video but if may make a small correction, the fast food places that were "sanctioned" actually voluntarily left Russia bc of everything going on and the government can't make them leave, they did that themselves after some deliberations. I am speaking of the US fast food places btw, I'm not sure about other countries reasons are

4:58 - Toy-drop experiment! Your mic picked up the landing nicely.
This blog is in very bad taste. So , you don’t have your Big Macs, but your collective followers (myself included), deserve better than “Home Made” Big Macs. You are both smart, cultured young people who can avoid the Utube censorship. Have you ever heard of the concept of “SPEAKING IN TONGUES?” It’s quite possible that your following will catch on real quick
When I notice people staring at you in the background, I wonder if it's because you're speaking English or just due to you recording in general? What is so shocking to them?
I think the word you are looking for is : curiosity. But if you want to give it a negative connotation you can call it shocked or fear.
The security staff seemed to be loitering in the background when they sat down. Perhaps it was just the usual "no filming in a private property" or the extra sensitivity of "foreigners" in Russia, due to an evil little man's Na-ZEE inspired crusade against a country that sounds like "UK"?
Yo, that looks way more delicious than McDonalds!
Potato 🥔 is my most favorite 😍!
The Russian McDonalds, 1st to visit 1 is to get a photo for the "I Visited A New Country And I Ate McDonalds" photo album
Love waking up to a Zangieff video to watch
Roasted loaded potatoes and blini’s seem a good alternative for burgers.
i used to love croshka kartoshka when i lived in moscow. it is good stuff. my wife, a moscovite, will not eat it as she thinks it will give you the runs (diahrea)
Great! The food looks so tasty and healthy and it looks more a restaurant meal than a fast food one as there is such a wide choice. Anyway they will learn to make sandwitches better and the problem is not so big. Thank you for sharing your lunch in a Russian fast food.
Hai Zangief, is SUBWAY still available there after sanctions?
That potato fast food thing looks good
Zangieff I hope you and your family are doing well. Hello Eli, I subscribe to her channel as well. I would try both places as the look to be delicious. Except the sandwich.
Every country has their own fast food places that are influenced from the US. Either by making their own food in a way where you can mass produce it. Or a local spin off of American cuisine with local influence.
Wendy's is an American fast food chain that has loaded potatoes on the menu. I almost never eat at fast food places.
If I had to, my choice would be Culver's where you can get broccoli as a side. (I never do.) I like their pot roast sandwiches. They also make their own frozen custard which is richer than ice cream.
Culvers is delicious. I no longer live near one, which is fine as I don't do fast food anymore. That said, Culvers was really delicious.
In the UK, they're called "jacket" or "baked" potatoes.
🇷🇺 Nice the potato looks good, porridge and the salmón pancake too and no discrimination for talking in english👍🏻
Definitely, I will be eating Russian fastfood when I visit Russia. Looks very tasty! It's a similar kind of dish like to enchilada of Mexican food.
Add some of your potatoe's toppings into that empty sandwich and it will be okay! Best luck and success to you friends!
Looks really good.
I love you two!
Good. Regards from Malaysian utuber
