- Come join us for breakfast in Ukraine as we review different food items we tried eating at Post office on Drukarska street restaurant (Poshta na Drukarskiy) in Lviv (Львів). Typically a traditional Ukrainian breakfast might include savory items such as borscht and dumplings but since we've shown these Ukrainian dishes on some of other food videos in Kiev we decided to try a more contemporary Ukrainian breakfast in Lviv, Ukraine by samplings some sweet meals. The inside of this restaurant features old fashioned postcards and looks like an old post office.
What we had for breakfast in Lviv, Ukraine:
1) Cappuccino
2) Crepes with berries
3) Pancakes with fruit and cinnamon
4) Deep-fried cookies with custard (Ukraine: Verguny (Вергуны) & Polish: faworki or chruściki)

Breakfast in Lviv, Ukraine travel food video transcript:
it is breakfast time here in Lviv (Львів) and we've ended up at the coolest cafe ever. It is themed like a post office. There is basically mailboxes everywhere & lots of postcards. You have the little like envelope feeders on the doors. It is so cool. We're going to head in, have a bite of food.
We're inside the cafe our food orders have been placed. Cappuccinos have arrived. We weren't even planning to come here because technically this place specializes in pastas and beers but the one cafe we had walked into first was totally packed. We saw they had a little breakfast section. I mean the place looks so cool. We're like yeah let's eat here.
So let's try that. While you're trying that something to keep in mind while traveling in Ukraine is that we've noticed in both Kyiv (Kiev - Київ - Киев) and now Lviv (Львів) that if you like if there is a really popular restaurant and you just show up like on the weekend. You need a reservation.
A few thoughts on Ukrainian breakfast. When we were kind of researching about what was a typical breakfast in the Ukraine there didn't seem to be like a exact standard. You could have something like borscht, there could be dumplings but we've already shown that in some other videos so we decided to just come and have more of a contemporary Ukrainian breakfast.
In front of me I've got these crepes with apple and walnuts. And just look at the way they've like folded them and like twirled them. Like it is so pretty and it has cottage cheese as well. Icing sugar, cinnamon. Like this is a work of art. I almost don't want to dig into it.
It is breakfast and we are hungry. It looks like a little flower almost.
It looks like berries. I thought this one was apple but maybe we got berries.
The other one would be apple then. Yeah, because the other one has a cinnamon flavor smell.
That is really good. Tasty.
I have to say we have a bit of a sweet tooth this morning. Haha. Both of us ordered sweet breakfasts. Yeah. And it is so nice with this like cottage cheese and all of the icing sugar and cinnamon mixed in together. Sam didn't want to miss out on the Crêpe.
The next dish is a stack of little pancakes here. Dusted with icing sugar if you look down. Yeah.
And it has got um raspberries, it has a lot of cinnamon which I'm really smelling and enjoying. Apparently this is going to be a sour cream based sauce. Those pancakes are nice and fluffy.
Apparently pancakes and crepes were not enough so this looks like what it is like deep-fried dough maybe?
Coated in like sugar, cinnamon and it comes with a little sauce bowl here. This is like a nice creamy vanilla custard. Super sweet.
That came to 207 which is just under $8 US dollars. That was for two cappuccinos and 3 basically mains. 3 breakfast mains including crispy fried cookies, pancakes & crepes. We're full. We'd highly recommend this place if you're looking for a nice breakfast here in Lviv, Ukraine.
This is part of our Travel in Ukraine video series showcasing Ukrainian food, culture and Ukrainian cuisine.

I so glad you enjoy your stay in our country. It may be not that rich and luxury as other european countries, but we are still proud of it and we appreciate your kind words about it.Thank you!
Thank you! I think for those who visit it sure is rewarding. We had a great time :)
To me it looks so interesting and beautiful, I'd love to visit some day!
That is great to hear. Would highly recommend it.
JollyValidolum - Hey, there's sooooo much history in Ukraine. It's literally the center of so much of the modern world.
Wow I think I need to travel to Lviv! cheers from Finland!
Thanks! Highly recommend it.
Oh, man... looks lovelyyyyy breakfast! I really like your food reports. I have no idea how do I watch all of them.
Thank you! That was a nice find as it was not our original intent to go there.
Так, Львів найкрасивіше місто в Україні, для туристів самий раз. Удачі Вам.
AWESOME!!!!!!! YOU JUST GOT TO LOVE UKRAINE!!!!!!
Yeah, we sure had a great time visiting Ukraine!
Mmm that was some good looking breakfast. 8$...wow!!! Nice video guys.
Thank you! It was such a nice find and to think we weren't even planning on going to this place :)
Que comida más rica, algún día iré a conocer ese país tan lindo
Please don’t ever stop your vids! They are brill!
Thank you very much! That really means a lot to us :)
Wow what a wonderful restaurant ! It's so cool I love the post office theme. The food looks delicious guys, those pancakes, my goodness they are so fluffy and thick. The Italians have a similar dessert, like those fried dough strips and they are called crostoli. Really delicious.
Thank you! It was so cool - fun, inexpensive and tasty food.
Smachnogo!!! (it's kind of "enjoy your meal " in Ukrainian. I hope you'll come across a lot of cool, interesting and tasty places in Lviv. Thank you very much for all your videos !! p.s I can't watch them with empty stomach though :)
Thank you very much! We sure enjoyed our time in Lviv and Ukraine in general. Hoping we can come back again next year and visit more places. Ah, I wish we could share.
Смачного!
Going to Chicago next week, you guys have inspired me to go eat Ukrainian!! Thanks for your terrific videos!
Thank you! That is really exciting. Let us know how it goes :)

Cafe dammmnnnn cool. Tq sam & audrey for sharing this beautiful vedeo. The food look yummy!!!
Thank you! Great atmosphere and such lovely food and the prices were very affordable. We'd recommend it highly :)
Another great video, thank you guys! BTW I don't know any person who eat borsh on breakfast. I can't even smell it in the morning. Borsh is only for lunch ))
Thank you! Ah, good to know. Our research was obviously wrong. What do you typically have or what would you say to someone is a typical Ukrainian breakfast?
Another Great Video! We can't wait for your Austria Videos. Cheers Marcel and Angie
Thank you very much Marcel and Angie!
Love you guys! You make a great pair. I love how you turn the camera back and forth. How bless you and you beautiful adventures!

cream . . . Too much Delicious!
Thank you!
The food looks great but wow, your photography and editing skills are incredible, capturing the feel of the place like I was there.
Thank you very much! We started our channel a few years ago with no skills in either area (videography or editing) and we've been kind of learning on the go. We still have a long way to go but we're really enjoying the process of learning new techniques and upgrading our gear when we can.
Congratulations on 100k subs 👍👌✌️
Thank you very much! We so appreciate the support :)
Pretty amazing breakfast. Those crepes look award winning!
Thank you! It was really tasty.
Hey, really love how U try food in my country :) Btw on 7:42 it is called verguny (Вергуны), I like them too. Looking forward to Yours next videos. Nice work :)
Thank you very much! I will update that in the description box of the video :)
Looks awesome,, the crepe dish almost reminded me of a blintz,,, 🤔 yum !
Just did a google image search. Oh, they look very similar!
That looks great. That's why I begrudge you this.
LOL, wish we could share!
You guys rock!!! Welcome to Ukraine😊 More videos plz!!!!!
Thank you very much! We have some more coming soon :)
When you're travelling across Ukraine you must watch out, because you can easily gain on weight after visiting all of restaurants and trying ukrainian cuisine
Hahaha..yeah! Totally agree with you. Lots of great food and it is tempting to order a lot at restaurants.
That's great!
Thanks! It sure was a memorable breakfast :)
Amazing value! I will ask my Ukrainians friends in Estonia about this place ;-P
Yeah, it was incredible! Would be interested to hear what some of their favorite places are.
$8? Wow
Maybe the best breakfast for the amount of money spent we've had all year :)
Wow, only $8 total? That could have been upwards of $40 if you'd had that in the states.
Thanks! I know what you mean. The value was incredible given the quality of the food and atmosphere in the cafe.
And Lemberg is RIDICULOUSLY expensive compared to the restaurants in the smaller towns!
Cool background music sounds ))))
Thank you!
I used to live in that green building where this cafe is located in, a few floors above. The waiters from that place would always smoke on the staircase, lol. Brings back memories :)
Wow! What a great location in terms of being in central Lviv.
I agree the way they present the crepe was amazing. Usually they are flat and boring, but that was really visually pleasing.
Thank you! It was such a surprisingly good breakfast :)
woww.....
thanks
I bet that the cheese that you are tasting is Quark. The music in the background is nice too, it is like Motown jazz!
Thanks Joan! It was really tasty.
Like you Two i Really have come to appetite The Ukraine, it’s culture and of course the food!!❤️
May I also say how much I like your videos and I have noticed over the years how professional you have become, the cutting and layout of your videos is so well made. And “ natural”.
Thank you both... much apretiated🙏😁🙏
Thank you very much! That is very kind of you to say. We had such a good time visiting Ukraine that I think we'll try to come back again next spring.
CUTIEST video.. POST OFFICE lovely DEARS...
Thank you! It was a really nice find.
Looks very good ...
Thank yoU! It was a great breakfast.
Visit the Lviv Arsenal Museum, it houses cool collection of historical weapons from 30 countries. And Lviv Art Gallery too. You can shoot videos in both of those places, you just need pay a little extra for it. Thank you for always saying kind words, I know that in Ukraine we have many negative things that could be improved.
Thank you for those suggestions! The Lviv Arsenal Museum was really cool. Actually it was one of our favorites.
ukrainian museum buhhaha ewerything in Lwow is polish
Modern brick Lviv ("the little Cracow") was built by famous Polish King Casimir the Great ,next by Polish ,Austrian artists (np. prof.Dunajewski, prof.Julian & Alfred Zachariewicz,prof.Czerwinski ...) .You are full of complexes,false Nazi-ukrainian(anti-Polish) chauvinist.P.S.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_III_the_Great
Yummy 👀📸👍👍👍👍📸
Thanks! It sure was :)
That is CRAZY cheap!!! You can hardly get 2 coffee in the rest of Europe for that!!
I know what you mean! We sure are appreciating the value we're finding in Ukraine.
I suggest you to stay in Lviv more :) I'm sure you will find a lot of interesting places. This city can surprise you for sure!
If your next country is Poland, there's a Intercity express from Lviv to Przemysl - its a cheap ($7-10), fast and has convenient connection for travelers to Krakow, Warszawa, Wroclaw, etc.
Thank you for sharing that! Great information to know. Lviv is so close to the border.
If you plan to cross the EU border from Ukraine by the bus/car - just forget this idea. Most of the time there is a very long queue and you can stuck for many hours. Last month we've lost 6+ hrs just at Shehyni-Medyka border point. Use trains or planes.
We wish you all the best, and you are always welcome in Ukraine! :)
Yup so hungry now
Wish we could share!
I need make a note for myself. Never, never watch your your videos on empty stomach.
It looks fantastic tasty :P
Thank you! Ah, wish we could share.
What a great food for a breakfast!*_* I'm a sweettooth master so this is best ever♡ the last thing is called 'chrust' or 'favorki' here in Poland and it's one of famous desserts for a donut day called 'fat Thursday' ^^
Thank you for letting us know about that! I will update information in our description box :)
Awwww!:) Thank you for that - means a lot to me^^ I'm glad I helped and for that you've red and answered on my comment
Cool couple
Thanks!
Da muss ich 2018 unbedingt hin.
I love MOCHA and LATTE CREAMY.. with SOYA
Such a nice way to start the day!
I have been there very recommended place
Great to hear! What did you eat there?
Ohh! Right now I so wanna drink a cup of cappuccino :/
Ah, hope you can find a good one.
I am Ukrainian and I don't know anyone who eats borsch for breakfast lol. I feel like I am missing out now! I eat eggs and sausages for breakfast or pancakes or lazy varenyky (looks nothing like actual varenyky).
Masha do you go to Poland often ?
Thank you for letting us know! I think we were wrong when we said borscht for breakfast. A few people have mentioned that now.
I AM FROM CAPE TOWN SOUTH AFRICA AND THE FOODS THAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR COUNTRY,IS SUPER DUPER. NO, I HAVE NOT BEEN TO YOUR LOVELY COUNTRY, WE ARE VERY EXPENSIVE COUNTRY ,WHERE THE CRIME RATE IS VERY HIGH.PS I HAVE JUST HAD A BURGLARY WHILE I WAS ASLEEP ON THURSDAY EVENING.
Masha Lwów old Polish city from king Casimir the Great 1350
You were right, I used to rent an apartment with people from Ukraine who had borsch, kotleti and grechka for breakfast :)
А ще у Львові дуже добрий шоколад,і цукерки
Дякую! Повністю згоден з вами.
🥞🤗🌹👏🏻
Thanks Irina! We loved that place.
@@samuelandaudrey i i i am Ukrainian.now i live in Valencia 👋🏻
Angel wings, I believe.
Oh thanks for letting us know.
Last desert is Khrustiki! (Like crusties, if translated) Western Ukraine's cookies that are normally fried. But I wonder that have never met another Western Ukraine's my favourite Krucheniki- a meat slice (stewed) being stuffed with mushrooms, onions and carrots with podlivka(souce) which is made of browned flour. They look similar to crusties(Khrustiki), not large and really good for dinner. Or stewed cabbage with meat or ribs (normally), looks not nice but original Ukraine's compliment for mashed potatoes
😉😊😇
Thanks Jasmina!
Nice reviews. Who's outperforming as of now: calories or jogging? ;)
Calories always wins ;)
is there a restaurant that has a huge aquarium around it and do you know where it is the address
ONE TIP:
If you have more time, you should definitely go to Ukrainian Carpathian's Mountains.
There is a nice place where you can go from Lviv (by train to the station Volovets (Воловець) and than by taxi (about 20km) to Pylypets (Пилипець). There you can find a chairlift to mountain Hemba (гора Гeмба), rent a room/house in local Ukrainians. Also you can try there paragliding, ski/snowboard (in the winter) or visit waterfall Shypit (Шипіт).
On the top there is a beautiful cafe - Chaiovnia Suria (Чайовня Сурія) - check this on the search, this is really must-visit place.
Check those view! instagram.com/explore/locations/926591934087815/
Thank you for sharing that! The views and scenery look absolutely incredible. We'd love to visit the next time we're in Ukraine. We had such a nice visit this year I hope we can return next spring.
Христина Антоник yes I've seen pictures from friends and would love to see them someday
that looks like a diabetic bomb,,,,waiting to explode,,,,,man that looks tasty!!
Glad you had a good experience at this restaurant. As for me and my husband we came after your video and the service was awful.
Thanks! Ah, that sucks to hear. What time of day did you visit?
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos It was late lunch time. We ordered by mistake 2- 75ml water bottle but when it got to table we realized we could not drink 2 bottles that large, so without opening or touching them we kindly asked waitress to just replace with smaller ones and she looked at us and simply told us “You ordered this size so you keep this size!” Etc.... then they were upset and service was bad. We should have just left but I so wanted those cherry pancakes Audrey ate 😂
do you have pancake syrup ?
Hey guys, did you see any remnants of a Jewish life in Lvov (Yiddish name)? Before the war, there were 100,000 Jews in Lviv. It has an incredible Jewish heritage. Just askin’
Yes, actually we noticed tours related to this while visiting.
visit this place
Реберня "Під Арсеналом"
Thanks for the suggestion!
np
First you need to be queued up. The fact that this place is so popular is that there are a lot of visitors.
Always a good sign a place is worth visiting :)
ofc. I hope u will make some movie from there. Couse i wonna go there to.
Mascarpone cheese maybe in the crepes
I think you're right about that!
This is more like desert
Hahaha...yeah, it sure is
1. The most famous restaurant in Lviv is KRYJIVKA (Криївка) www.fest.lviv.ua/en/restaurants/kryjivka/
2. Kumpel (Кумпель) is very nice place kumpelgroup.com/en/restaurant/restaurant-brewery-kumpel/
3. The best coffee, chocolate and beer in Ukraine you can taste in Lviv.
Thank you very much for sharing that!
U r welcome! By the way, from 13 to 15 Oct in Lviv will be the festival of chocolate !)
Hey I'm wanting to go to Transylvania but not sure what city or town any ideas
Highly recommend Brașov! Check out Bran Castle as well :)
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos yes I was thinking that I just saw your video of bran castle looks great thanks 😊
Thanks! Ah, such a cool place to visit. I think you'll really enjoy this part of Romania.
So what you're saying is that Ukraine isn't exactly a gluten free place. ;-)
Seriously, looks divine!
Thanks! It was a great breakfast.
Your Spanish channel is funny! Lol
Thank you! We're hoping to get our Lviv guide up today on there...haha

Lviv, 20 Valova Str.
Thanks for recommending that!
:-)
:)
Львів славиться своєю кавою!!
Ми просто полюбили Львів. Де найкраще попити кави?
Nalisniki and syrnyk so good
We loved the food in Ukraine.
@@samuelandaudrey I want to go one day I'm Ukrainian/Canadian.
are you still in Lviv?)
We left a while ago but we still have a few videos coming out from Lviv :)
Oh, you got faworki or chruściki :) - we have the same in Poland
Thanks for letting us know! I'll add that to the description of this video :)
How it's called in Ukranian? Фаворки. чрущчики? Как это читается?
Si.
In South its call hrustyky\хрустики.
Lwow is fucking polish it belongs to Poland not the stinking Ukraine child murderers
Привет как дела у вас ?
Ukraine-is love forever! ❤️❤️❤️♥️♥️♥️
:)
Audrey has a habit of filming nothing, when she films Sam eating.
?
Did you guys find any interesting food?,like maybe chicken feet😂
Nothing quite like that! We had a chance to try that in a dim sum restaurant before though.
How is everyone in Ukraine not extremely fat with all the sweets, potatoes, lard, and other carbs? They walk everywhere?
Walking and I think some good salads too.
We walk a lot as a few of us has cars. So it's hard to put weight on
Sorry, sweet breakfast are so digusting for me, after I would spend full day in toilet especially with cappucino, only tea and as a coffe double espresso after. Fortunately I had a chance to have just omlette for breakfast during my stays in Lviv, no sweet, was fantastic! I'm sweet enough by myself and I hate sweets, cakes etc, but like your movies! :)
I think many people feel the same way.
Ukraine does not have a typical breakfast.
Good to know. Thanks.
Reservation=bigger tip. I'm Native America and we don't need no reservations LOL...
LOL, we definitely prefer not having to reserve a table
Love the show. The female participant could tone down her facial expression a bit. She has quite strong facial features (eyes and mouth) so being a bit more conservative would help. I hope that this is not taken as an offense. That is not my intention. I am looking forward to next episodes.
have you ever considered creating a critic channel you might gain some subscribers because you have little chance here Jimbush80528
I think we'll just continue to be ourselves. Thanks for the feedback though.
picturesque former polish city :)
still butthurt? I've heard the polish nationalism is on the rise with the PISdyuki politicians now in Poland.
The city was founded by the Ukrainian king Danylo Halytskyi for his son Lev. during history it was under the rule of different countries Austro Hungary , Soviet Union, Poland. If it was under the rule of Poland does not make it a Polish city 🤷♀️🤦♀️
hi, just to let you know, it’s just Ukraine, no ‘the’ in front - that ended in 1991.
Would enjoy your videos even more if you two didnt talk with your mouths full constantly...
Isn't there a Ukrainian equivalent of scrambled eggs, sausages, hash browns, fried tomatoes and mushrooms, spinach with some sort of bread ?
That's not breakfast what you had, it's desert.
Let's go. Cram as much food on my fork as possible, open my mouth 5 inches wide, cram it in my mouth. Chew twice, then start talking with my mouth open. Repeat. Disgusting. Stop talking with your mouth full!
