    With the cities of Kyiv and Lviv, and the Transcarpathian Region in my rearview mirror, I set off to the final city on my epic trip through Ukraine, Odessa. Come with me as I enjoy some delicious Ukrainian seafood on the Black Sea and explore the attractions in Odessa, Ukraine!
    Odessa is a beautiful city on Ukraine’s Black Sea Coast. It was founded in ancient times by the Greeks!
    👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/stores/davids-b...
    My day in Odessa began with my guide Natasha from Tours by Locals in Square de Richelieu. There are tons of beautiful historical buildings there, as well as the 192 Potomkin Steps.
    Our next stop was Shustov Cognac Museum.Inside, they have 23,000 bottles on the ceiling. Included in the entry fee is a cognac tasting. They also have a gift shop!
    On your tour, you can learn about the history of Shustoff, from its founding in 1863 to the present day. In 2012, it was awarded the title best cognac produced in Europe.
    From there, we headed down to the cellar, which was filled with 500 massive oak barrels, each of which contains 10 tons of cognac. The smell coming from the barrels was making me drunk!
    Their oldest barrel in this room dates back to 1949. It’s all being held until it’s 75 years old so they can sell it as a 75-year-old cognac.
    In the Room of Paradise are jugs of cognac. The oldest barrel in eastern Europe is there as well, as well as the biggest. They have a pipe system that connects the barrels to the bottling system.
    Next, we headed down to the catacombs to try their Pirates and their Treasures. It’s 35 years old and is very good, unique, and the smell is phenomenal. Next, I got to see the tools used to make a barrel. Next was the Quintessence, which is 50 years old. It was delicious!
    Next, we saw an old tram, the evolution of their bottles, and photos of rich 19th-20th century aristocrats who only drank Shustov cognac. They have a bottle from 1898 that costs 100,000 Euros.
    Then, you can watch a 20-minute documentary in their theater. Next was their 70-year-old Exclusive. It’s not part of their tour, so I was one of the few people outside the company who has ever tried it!
    Next was an art gallery featuring Ukrainian artists and photographers. Then, they took me to a room where you sign your name on the wall.
    Then, we arrived at Dacha Restaurant, a summer house built in the 1850s. It’s beautiful and expansive. The chef, Sasha, showed me how to make Vorschmack, a raw fish spread eaten on rye bread.
    He also made an appetizer made from local cheese and some giant tomatoes.
    The Vorschmack was creamy and briny fish salad. I loved it with the pumpernickel rye bread. The onions and creaminess were fantastic.
    Next were New Potatoes and Sardines. The sardines were salty and went well with the tiny potatoes. Then, I had the the juicy tomatoes and spongy mozzarella appetizer with herbal basil.
    Then, I tried the Chicken “Neck,” which is basically a stuffed chicken with breading inside. It was like a delicious stuffed cutlet!
    We followed that with Rugelach, or Rogalik, which are small croissants stuffed with jam. They were sugary and fluffy.
    I jumped back on more of the sardines. I couldn’t get enough of them. I love fish, so there was no way I was letting them go to waste!
    After that, I tried Nalysnyky, a folded crepe stuffed with cottage cream and topped with powdered sugar. I loved how hot and fluffy it was!
    Then, we headed to a small house on the grounds where they showed us how they make Rugelach and tiny vareniki.

      You know, after gaining independence, everyone considered us Russians. We did everything to stand out. So that we would be known as Ukrainians, good singers, winemakers, people who know how to make good restaurants and cook delicious food, somehow it would stand out that we are not part of Russia. But unfortunately we are now known as the people who know how to kill Russians best of all. I don’t mourn for the killed Russians, they killed a lot of my friends, but for everything else I’m very sad. Thank you very much for your support, and know that an ordinary provincial Ukrainian teacher considers you a friend.

    I’ve been enjoying your videos in Ukraine even more than your other videos, so thank you for them.
    I’m wondering what inspired your videographer to close up on the brandy barrel reserved for Karl Frierson of De-Phazz? I’m putting together a Spotify playlist for The Love Show Dancers to perform to at Greenwich Village’s clubby eatery Baby Brasa tomorrow evening I’m focusing on Latin/Caribbean jams, and hadn’t thought of De Phazz’s “Something Special” until I saw that cask!
    There are no coincidences.

      Besides, David is not even Indian, why would he even eat Indian food in Ukraine? Would you as an Indian, go to Ukraine and eat Japanese food?
