Donaghadee and Monte Carlo have a lot in common you know, they're both by the sea and... I think that's where the similarities end, actually.I wonder....is chicken Kiev a dish that emanates from the great pantheon of Ukrainian cookery, or is it one of those dishes some chef has applied a name to to make it seem more interesting? When I was a 14 year old pot washer in a hotel the chef came up with a dish that flew out of the kitchen called 'mushrooms Monte Carlo'. They had feck all to do with Monte Carlo. They should have been called Donaghadee Mushrooms.

I am off to Rome, so I Guess that's about how much I manage to do. Kiev will be amazing, but I can't find a hotel nor a decent flight. Haven't got my Rome tick either sorted. Fuckety fuck.
Couldn´t either find a hotel but Airbnb. Never tried it. On this trip anything goes.
Toothbrush? Fucking nancy boyYeah. A bed and a place to keep the toothbrush is enough I guess. Problem with Kiev is that I have never been there and don't know what i sound lociation etc.

I’m pretty sure Harry Kane invented schnitzel.I asked a chef about Chicken Kiev and he said it was French, but maybe spread through Russia and the rest because loads of royal families and rich people hired French chefs. Stuffing a chicken breast with cheese (is there cheese in it?) and garlic deffo sounds French.
But the breadcrumb crust is like a schnitzel, which is Austrian. Although that's probably French originally too. They claim everything.

Back on topic, Cicken Kiev is chicken stuffed with butter and garlic, so it is as french as a stripey shirt and string of onions. And losing wars.
