Ukrainian people are very hospitable. They are typically kind hearted, friendly and well wishing to both fellow countrymen and foreigners.
In Ukrainian we have breakfast, dinner and supper. As for me I have breakfast at home before classes, lunch at school, dinner and supper at home.
In Ukraine we don’t have afternoon tea. I think it is an English tradition. Our food is more natural and plainer than in England. It is a cup of tea and a cake or a pastry. For English it is a social occasion when people come in for a chat over their cups of tea.
My favorite dish is varenyky with cherries.
We usually lay white clean tablecloth and napkins, put nice dinner and salad plates, dinner forks and steak knives, bread-and-butter plate, butter knife, juice glasses and vine glasses and put a vase with flowers. Our table is alwrays very attractive.
For the first course we usually serve different salads with coked as well us uncooked vegetables along with cheese, fish, seafood, meats, nuts with sold, oil or mayonnaise and seasonings. A meat course consists of veal or beef, or chicken. Sometimes meat is made into roasts, sometimes it is made into outlets, small slices of meat served breaded and fried or broiled and sauced. It is accompanied with mushrooms and canned vegetables and potatoes. After meat course desserts come apple fruit or cream pies or cakes, frozen disserts such as ice-cream with chocolate or strawberry and of course tea or coffee with sugar, lemon and cream.
The national Ukrainian dishes differ from the English ones. The English don’t have such dishes as borsch, varenyky. deruny and salo. But they have kholodets and mlyntsi, they call them stew and pancakes.

The English like what they call ‘good plain food’. They must be able to recognize what they are eating. Usually they like fish and chips, roast beef, Yorkshire pudding and roast turkey.
Afternoon tea is taken at about 5 o’clock, but it can hardly be called a meal. It is a cup of tea and cakes or biscuits. At the weekends afternoon tea is a special occasion. Friends and visitors are often invited to have a chat over a cup of tea. Dinner is the most substantial meal of the day. It is usually eaten at 7 o’clock. The first course may be soup though the English don’t like it very much. The main course will often be fish or meat, perhaps the traditional beefsteak of old England, and a lot of vegetables. The next course will be something sweet and often cooked, such as a fruit pie. Last of all there may be cheese, often with biscuits.
It is common knowledge that the English are very fond of tea. They like to have ‘a nice cup of tea’ 6 or 8 times a day, sometimes even more.
