The food is good, perhaps a small cake, high calorie but genuine. Don't look for Italian or International dishes, from the Ukraine kitchen you have unique tastes, very flavoursome that you will certainly remember other than the really convenient cost.
The taste and recipes maintains itself in the whole territory, you will find a few variants in the south where, in certain areas, prevails the tartare kitchen, Cibureki, a Ukrainian dish as on the Ai-Petry plateau in Crimea.

The traditional drink carries the name Kompot and is treated by an infusion of dried fruit with a particular process. This drink is prepared at home and you can not find it commercially, the taste is very light and does not distinguish itself with a definite taste but is genuine and good if drank fresh. The colour is lightly roasted.
If you drink, Ukrainian beer has a taste very similar to European and Coca-Cola by now a worldwide drink. Wine is little consumed. In the Ukraine it is only produced in the Crimea and has a taste different to Italian, sweeter and more like Marsala. We can classify it as a dessert wine but don't avoid it, in fact it has the same typical unique character, like another wine imported from Georgia.
If you want to taste a wine quite fruity and similar to Italian, we advise the Merlot produced by the Massandra cellars, besides it is distributed in the supermarkets at accessible prices (20/25 grivne).
