- It's been a while since I had a Food O'Clock video so I went along to sample the culinary delights of Столовая #225 БГУИР at No.4 Leanid Bedy Street near Minsk city centre where I tried borscht, buckwheat, pork and washed it down by some fruit compot. It all came to the princely sum of BYR 3.54 (e1.50). Highly recommended. Partizan approves 5/5.

I am having a hard time explain my waterford girlfriend why I'm watching an Irishman eating Ukrainian food in Belarus. Though I have introduced her to Belgian and Bulgarian cuisine already and she loves pierogi. Typically Irish though she doesn't live for food, but sees it as sustenance. I know that Icehokey is number one in Belarus, but do they have rugby as well? Dublin has a lot of Russians playing rugby while studying and Russian rugby is on the up. Maybe it could all kick off in Belarus too with a Leinsterman (I'm guessing) coaching the first Minsk rugby team :)
even better would be to see them play hurling :)
Another great video! You should do english sub titles for when you speak Russian though, I think that adds to the experience a lot
Yea, because the CC closed captioning wasn't giving the right results'
Calcium Vaughan Highly recommended as most of your viewers aren’t necessarily Russian.I try to translate sub-tittles as well to my Russian vlogs and is helps.Great point as his videos are good 👍
Every time I watch one of your videos it's just increases my desire to visit eastern Europe! Great video
This is very eastern european ! I ate that kind of food when I was a student in Bucharest , Romania . It is not like home made eastern european food ; it has a "special communist flavour" !!! It is very hard to explain the difference of the taste between homemade borsch to communist student cantina borsh. It is not bad or good ; it is just different !!! He likes it because the food there has a "communist taste" with that communist decour with babuskas in the kitchen serving food to students and very cheap communist prices . It is the whole packege that worth 5 stars !!! Maybe now as a westerner you may understand why he gave this good review ...
what a you talking about? "communist taste"? go see a doctor and fix your brain
Wow- Thanks for filming this in spite of the awkwardness
Definitely great stolovoya
I like how they eat buckwheat a lot over there instead of rice. I love buckwheat and use it in different ways. Too bad more Americans,( like me) don't know much about it being good for you since it's a seed instead of a grain.
It is my university’s canteen, very nice to see this place did not change after many years, and food is still good and cheap. Previously there very student’s rock concerts sometimes, curious if they still take place.
Молодец!))Привет из Минска!) Люблю Ирландию, гостил в Дублине месяц , практически обьездил всю южную часть, туда переехала жить и работать моя сестра, хочу что бы наши страны крепко дружили!)
да.пора расширять народную дипломатию.
I like Ireland too!
I just found my favourite UA-cam channel. I know you’re mates with Bald, but he’s got nothing on your raw and real videos. Keep it up. Stay safe. Soon I’ll be in Minsk. Let’s grab a beer. Cheers from a Slovak living in London
I really like Bald and Bank. a lot, But this is another great channel!
This video made me hungry and that dish looks delicious!
It was! More Food O'Clock coming up.
Please, I Like coffee and pastries, sandwich etc. All the goodies! Show more cafe videos I think your food o'clock is a great feature. Yummy. I can't get over the good value for money. You are doing a great job! Love the videos and have to catch up.
I like that you show the food and you enjoying it. And it's cheap!.
Hello,Bald and Bankrupt sent me here...i quite like the few videos thus far :-)
Excellent videos as always. Food looked good.
Saying "thanks" "it really looks tasty" gives you away as a foreigner, even apart from the accent.
Is it just not common to say such things or is it considered rude?
@@JoshuaMuse not rude but they will think that u have mental problems if u repeat one word a lot of times
It would appeal to me! Thank you for showing this!
I'd love to visit Belarus but fear not knowing Russian would leave me in some difficult situations
I have visited Minsk twice and I have no Russian. Don’t let this stop you, many people, especially the younger generation speak English so you will get by no problem it’s a fantastic country and the people are super nice and helpful.
Hi from Minsk. !! Good blog!
Good value food there, great informative blog.
Found you thru Bald & Bankrupt ... I am enjoying your channel.
Same here
Food looks good, would definitely eat it, I'm so hungry now!
Very good food and healthy food!!!
Looks like you are becoming a Belirish... )
Great video from my favourite country! Greetings from Cephalonia island, Greece!
я тут каждый день кушаю. супер! очень здоровая еда за 1.5$
Great videos keep it up!!
Really enjoyed buddy ,looked tasty.. ps hope you were able to see the Ireland v Scotland rugby match at the weekend. Regards from Dublin, Liam
You didn't watch the Super Bowl ? :[) LoL
Always great videos! That food looked amazing 😍 is it better than a typical mammys / nannas sunday dinner I wonder 🤔
The thing i like bout this place is that it looks very easy going.
For some reason I got really annoyed at not putting the knife and fork together! Must be cabin fever in lockdown! Very nice video. 👍
Funny!
вот как можно есть и разговаривать одновременно. удивляюсь. детям всегда делала замечание,чтобы не разговаривали во время еды. а тут смотрю с удовольствием. в Белоруссии действительно очень вкусная и качественная еда. живу в Сибири, но стараюсь при возможности покупать белорусские продукты. я и все мои родные из Белоруссии. Гомель,Минск,Брест. давно там не была, скучаю.
Нет такой страны Белоруссия)
@@MinskGuide Не важна разница в буквы. Мы столицу Италии называем Рим а не Рома, народ дойч немцами, народ хань китайцами. Так что беларуским правильноназвательникам нужно помолчать.
This is typical soviet dinner.
I know. It's awesome.
Kristie C open your mind hahah it looks nice and hearty
I thought I suddenly developed cataracts when the lens fogged up.
Thank you for so positive and nice videos, I really enjoy them! BTW there is my house on this one, Beda str. 2B. :)
Honestly, we (my family) do not think it's a good place to get dinner, but maybe we have to check it again, as the last time was 7 years ago...
I think it is time for a re-visit.
За 3.56 белрубля, думаю, всё очень вкусно.
Cheers Irish Partizan. I've now decided to learn Russian and I'm planning a trip to Belarus on the spring. Russian is coming along ok, I'm two weeks in have learned a couple of phrases basic words and able to count to 50. Cheers fella.
Where is VODKA ?
Thanks for an interesting video. Спасибо Большой.
the guy hasn't figured out proper endings to words yet, which is tough for English speakers
Awesome video Partizan!!! Love this country and people!! Так Держать!
What’s stopping people from the west from retiring to Eastern Europe? I know a lot of people who retire and move to Asia because cost of living is so low, why not Belarus? I must visit one day!
exchange rate: 1 BYN 0.4246 EUR
$1:50 for your lunch everyday awesome , same thing here in UK would cost 5 times that
people in the UK earn 5x more though
@@donspecter but more tax and the prices of the houses are 🙀🙀🙀
You have to understand that you also earn less but you earn less and spend less, earn more and spend more. Basically its like there is no difference, its the same life...
i live in chile. alot of people think the food sucks here too but its actually simple and wholesome like your dinner there. very nice
What usually people eat in Chile?
That's great.... So crazy cheap.
Excellent! Cannot wait to add this restaurant in Belarus on our visit to Russia.
Belarus is not Russia
Starting to 💚 your posts m8
One and a half year later it's only 1.15€. The time since this video has been crazy in so many ways.
on the strength of this video, i'm planting buckwheat and beetroot this year
Good subject for a video.
🤤 delicious
you have a very cute accent, makes me smile :)
Я когда жил в Минске, давольно часто в сталовой питался
Compote and vodka, breakfast of champions
Водка сила-спорт могила.
That food not cheap or expensiv,its like how food exactly coast if goverment care about peoples,and here is not added extra profits,rentals, its just food price+people who making salary
You making me hungry by watching this .
My EC London lunch time street food is always between £6-8 per meal
The daily meals at my university were mediocre and not even cheap. Sigh.
I really like the eats
At those prices, why would you cook for yourself? Surely must be cheaper to eat out every day 😀
I do but I can be sometimes lazy.
That was the thought of the commies.
@@lsd812 Food in canteens wasn't exactly cheap back in Soviet times At least not when meat was involved. A full lunch incl. soup, main course, salad and a drink could easily cost around 1 rubel. A factory worker would make like 100 rubel per month
Tea or Coffee ?
February 3 winters look mild in minsk and i'm from southwestern ontario canada which they call the banana belt.
My two most hated meals are borsch and buckwheat.
How could you? They are my favourites.

Mr Irish,
You may consider being a food critic and do more in that arena. I enjoy your comments on the different foods in Minsk.
Food vlog coming up.
The best developers are growing their experience eating this healthy food. And this is not a touch of sarcasm!
Thank you . Another great video ! Do you cook in you’re Soviet era kitchen at home ?
I checked it on Google Maps and noticed it's close to EPAM
Big Like!
Is there a chest-mount for the camera to make life a bit easier while you're doing things like this? Anyway, it was interesting. Thanks.
I’m curious to try that buckwheat.
Nutritious, healthy, easy to grow but I wouldn't call it tasty. Most Russians have a love-hate relationship with buckwheat. They don't it eat because it's so tasty but because they're used to consuming it
you say the food is really cheap.....but is it cheap if you are using money earned in Bellarus? If you consider salaries are very low by European standards I bet you that this would be considered pricey by the locals.....
You always mention that Borscht has Ukrainian origin (I heard that at least 3 times in different videos). That's not entirely true, because it is a common dish in Eastern Europe (including Belarus and Poland), even more - a lot of Ukrainian recipes/variants went far away from the imaginary original "standard", because Ukrainians colonized the steppes on the South during a modern period and were faced with a new and a bit different climate and foodstuffs. I have an ancient cookbook from the mid. XIX and there are two recipes of Borscht: the local one and the "Ukrainian" one.
Hi, would you be that kind and sent me photo of theese two borsch recipes? I am curious how they made it then)
Make USSR great again!
Ha! This time, closed captioning wrote "slow jam" when you toasted "Sláinte"!
Nice one mate,invest time to translate your Russian and I guess most of your audience are English speaking 👍😊
you really seem to be in heaven when you eat ... there's like a climax at some point
add some vodka to compote. Like in Russian famous movie, Shurik's Adventures.
Непривычно для русского уха, уж слишком много раз спасибо сказал) и на раздаче "это было очень вкусно" по-моему немного рановато :)
Это да, у нас не привыкли благодарить.
Do that supports put you more at The Vineyards is Clearwater Florida
Do you plan on returning to Ireland any time soon?
Not for a while.
@@IrishPartizan don't bother. We are being screwed left right and centre.
Don't be a pig, please.
Never stir a sour cream into the borscht.
Just pinch with a spoon small amounts of sour cream every time you scoop the borscht
This way the look of borscht remains attractive up to the last sip.
😂🇨🇦
Are there lots of these stolovaya in Minsk? Number 225 would suggest that it’s very popular!
They are everywhere. Very few foreigners eat in these places. The locals do.
I love ”Stolovaya” I am from a Soviet country; I live in London now. I miss the delicious cheap ”Stolovaya” here. In London, if you want a snack, eat fast food or sandwiches, or any other pastry that quite expensive. But I want tasty mashed potatoes, cutlet, salted cucumber and compote and nothing else 😊
Great video. Greetings from Cephalonia island,Greece!
looks like Sainsburys cafe
looks like you have the Belarusian favorite of BUCKWHEAT!!!!
Tldr it was about r
Three fiddy (in belarussian rubles).
What’s the latest from Belarus? We haven’t heard anything from you for over a month. Are under lockdown due to protests ?
good to know.$
what's the sauce with the pork? you know what it's made of/with?
Nation's secret)
All i want to know is what is that pink liquid in the glass????????
It's kompot= fruit infusion drink, natural & tasty.
Its Diner on the plant in Minsk.
that was grand, however if you could also shed light on the whereabouts of Mr Baldr as well as Mr Bald, that would be much appreciated
I have no idea as to their whereabouts.
THE JURY IS OUT?
You like a borcsh or grechka?
SO can anyone go there ? Even if you arent a student I mean ?
Anyone.
No tip?
2:00 thought I didn't go specsavers.
Lol as in eating my grechka (buck wheat) u get one too
Had no idea that they use "Kartoffel" in Russian at all, is that just referring to potatoes in general or a specific dish?
In russian we say "kartochka" for potatoes but kartoffel work also no problem
Yes kartofel (картофель) is potatoes in general. Kartoshka (картошка) is a diminutive word of kartofel and is almost always used for potatoes in conversations.
@@sergiob9281 Had no idea, thanks!
@@LordSpuggy Kartoffel is a german word for potatoes in general adapted in both Belarus and Russia.
Посмотрел, и тоже захотелось есть,.. среди ночи.
Remember to clean your lens :)
Privyet, I noticede that you used the word "svilina" to mean pork meat. Is it common to say svilina or baranina or govyadina more than just saying myasa? Thank you if you answer im just a beginner with this language and in a little time i will come to belarus to study!
If you want to emphasize which kind of meat you want, you need to name it: swinina, govyadina, etc. But if you want to refer to meat in general, you can say myaso
"swinina" not "svilina"

This is another stolovaya very much the same as the one in your video . I wrote a tiny review for it and uploaded some photos on google maps a year or so ago
I love these types of places
