Summary:
We went to a local food marked and tasted different kinds of traditional Ukrainian food (salo, honey, cheese and so on). After that we had some soup from a very local street canteen. After that we went to a traditional Odessa resto and had the full local menu, it was forshmak, roasted Odessa anchovies (called tyulka) and one beef stroganoff. It was a feast and very tasteful. Our guide was fun and knew a lot about Odessa and its rich history. I can highly recommend such a tour.
