Soviet Cafe "Kvartirka". St. Petersburg, Russia. Russian Cuisine.

[@Semiam1]

That is Soviet Soul Food. Looked great.

[@LarrySerflaten]

Having lived through the 60's and 70's it was interesting to see old Russian equipment was not too different from old American equipment. That food certainly looked good, I was surprised to see so many large pictures in the food menu - that is a good idea! For a channel about Real Russia, this video was right on topic - good job!

[@keithcleghorn5102]

I gained 10 pounds watching your feast. Cool cafe

Sergey my boii,you are the greatest,best wishes from England.

[@usagiynami9937]

It is a nice tradition showing respect to the victims and heroes of the siege. Thanks for giving us knowledge of Real Russia. You do give an intimate perspective not found elsewhere in the true tradition of your channel. Thanks so much, Friend.

[@athenac2696]

My point was that is not a healthy meal. Neither are hamburgers healthy to eat, but at least we put green vegetables on them and eat real green salads, green beans, avocados and carrots at meals. Yes, there are a lot of thin people in Russia, but in Russia, after age 50 they dont usually exercise and eat to many starchy foods so the women get fat.

[@lass-inangeles7564]

I feel so at home with all the rotary phones, vinyls, and record players, ha, ha!! A trip back into my past. Thanks for a great tour! The food looks so delicious. I wish I had known about these when I visited St Petersburg. Oh well, have to make another trip soon.

[@liza.1888]

Oh my! I think I just had a food coma by looking at all that! 😂 the restaurant and all the decorations are beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

[@fla-bushcraftprepper941]

We had Poor Man's dumplings the last night for dinner. Dumplings filled with four cheeses and covered with Garlic Cheeses sauce and shredded chicken. Sometimes we top with small steamed Broccoli florets. They sure did not taste like Poor Man's Dumplings. Loved the video and the hospitality of the restaurant. Makes me want to bring my family from Florida to visit. Only two of us have seen snow, so I do not think it would be good to come in winter. Maybe in early fall when leaves are starting to change color. From Florida, Real Russia Really Rocks 😎👍

[@ThePolka]

Bravo! Sergey. Enjoyed you tour de Menu, St. Petersburg. I live in St. Petersburg, Florida. Food looks delicious and hardy. Great for 30 below weather. The restaurant was very quaint in preserving the past. Before retiring, I lived in 40 below Minnesota.

[@aaronlvandamme3784]

@@MichaelJonesC-4-7 and there were only 3 channels then....ABC, CBS & NBC. (at least here)

[@maurirish1]

That was from my childhood of the 60's. When I was a child we lived in old French building in Beirut and the land lines was one line so sometimes I would pickup the phone and I could hear conversations with some people in the building. But besides my family there was only one other couple that were american; everyone else was Lebanese so I couldn't understand them to eavesdrop. Sorry I don't know why that came to my mind, lol. Anyway love this channel and video. The restaurant is so cozy/vintage and the food looks so delicious and comforting.

Flabbergasted by all the ABBA. Being Swedish, it of course makes me proud, but did you guys really listen to ABBA in those days?

[@realrussiablog]

ABBA was extra popular those days. The Soviet recording studio "Melodia" pressed their vinyls here.

[@hederoth7883]

Real Russia Ah, yes, Melodija. I had almost forgotten about that. Do you think it would be possible to find a copy in Moscow?

[@leodf1]

@YegorsTV Was western popular music allowed in Soviet Russia?

[@AlexMoonXXI]

@@leodf1 Hi! Music has not been banned. And the fascination with western music was not blamed. Anyway since the 1970s. Just it almost did not translated on the radio and TV, did not sell enough vinyls, etc. I think that stupid prohibitions have played a bad joke with the USSR: (

[@AlexMoonXXI]

Abba then seemed like as pop. And now they seem to be a masterpiece. : / And in those days we wondered: how many talents are in Sweden?!! :)

Hi! I live in Saint Petersburg, Florida, USA. I REALLY enjoyed this video! I am always curious about dining in other nations. The Soviet era items were interesting. I would guess children would not have any idea what some items were, like the typewriter. I just subscribed and I will look for more.

[@ericelliott227]

Sergey, I hope you did not really have to eat all that and could take some to go. Thank you for showing another wonderful restaurant in Russia. All the restaurants that are not chains there are so atmospheric. It is a real treat because one gets to have a real experience as opposed to just eating. All the restaurants seem so classy (not in the high society sense, but the atmospheric sense) and clean. Our restaurants her in the states are boring and just copy each other and don't really care. I like seeing and learning a bit about Russian history. I love that they had the old vinyl records. I wish I had a Russian vinyl record in my collection. I have some Russian music on vinyl, but made in the states, that is not the same thing. I'd love to get something from Russia period just to have. Of course, the best thing of all I already have: My very dear friend Marta in Russia and some Russian vloggers such as you, Valeria at Different Russia and now Tanya at Russki as acquaintances. There is nothing better than having international friends.

[@edithserafina1002]

I worked at a Polish restaurant and it was an amazing atmosphere. everything was clean and there were amazing displays showing off the culture, I wish more American restaurants were like that place😭

[@dancinggiraffe6058]

I love this video! It reminds me of the wonderful times I had in 1990 and 1991, staying with my friends in Moscow and Leningrad (as it was at that time). Russian cooking is delicious! My favorite thing about it is the great variety of delicious soups, and my favorite soup is svekolnik. Another thing I liked was all the dishes made with wild mushrooms that we picked in the forest. That's not very common in the US, so it was a real treat for me!

[@haramanggapuja]

Man, thanks for this. I have always wondered about going to a restaurant in Russia. Now, all I have to do is save up for a trip & then convince my wife that we should check this out.

I need to visit Russia real soon, before places like this are all gone ..its like a complete throwback to Soviet Russia ,, a time capsule ... we dont even realize how lucky we are that we could still Visit such places to enjoy their food, meet the genuinely nice people, learn more about their culture ... Honestly i feel like this would be such a great experience , far better than going to some over rated City like Paris or Rome .. Not making a comparison as those places are also nice to see at least once ..but eating in places like this , Honestly its better than dining at a Fancy Restaurant , because its so genuinely Authentic ..

Restaurants are usually always empty and usually 1 person comes in, it gets crowded in a few hours and they flock close to the nearest diner. Idunno if its a psychological thing, but i end up entering restaurants alone like this then a few cups of coffee and lunch bam im surrounded by other diners.

@@diane9247 Haha, you know, that's actually true. In the 1950s and 60s, my mom took care of her five little brothers in rural southern China. She was between 10-20 years old at the time. They were so poor that they would wait to receive bags of bread crust that people threw away in Hong Kong, which my grandpa collected and brought back to China for them.
