Regarding food and cooking, it's best to find participants who can cook. Each morning or on the first day, you can prepare chicken fillets for a couple of days, make a lot of pasta portions, cook oatmeal with fruit, rice with mushrooms and meat, prepare vegetables, and make smoothies – it's not difficult and doesn't take much time. Then you just need to reheat the food.
It will cost around $200 for everyone's food for the entire duration. And that's if there's a lot of food.
If I have time to get my passport, I'll come (by the way, it's iamthejay).

P.S. Good luck to Sasha in organizing the tournament.

If anyone wants sushi, I can easily make it – even an affordable but still tasty version for a crowd.

I eat almost everything. Some Irish stew would be just fine.

Well, a nice steak or turkey cutlets – that’s easy to prepare. I can handle that. And in general, main courses aren’t complicated. The real question is – is there a microwave there?

I just ordered a poker set online, but it’s small – for 200 chips. So, I’ll need to buy at least another 100-200 chips. And honestly, I don’t really want to carry it. Don’t they have a poker set locally?

Basically, Tovariщ, The, and Noom bought tickets to Kyiv – you can safely add us to the list of participants (me as a spectator).
What train (what time does it arrive)?
I’m also buying train tickets this week. I’ll arrive in Kyiv on the 3rd at 11:36 on the Kharkiv-Kyiv express train. I’ll probably take the evening express train back on the 6th (I need to be home on the 7th).

Some Irish stew would be perfectly fine.
Not bad, but I would replace the peas with eggplant or zucchini.

Of course, everyone can cook or wash dishes, but who will manage this chaotic group of cooks and dishwashers? How do you enforce it if no one wants to do it on the second or third day? Who will keep track of how much to buy? It will be a mess. I support the idea of having a cook; trust a professional. This isn't the kind of situation where you should try to save money by not going anywhere, not washing anything, and not thinking about anything. Paying 100 UAH per day for three meals in Kyiv is already a great success. The main thing is that the cook is good and prepares delicious food; I'm willing to pay even more.

If there’s going to be a cook, I’m all for it. But the question is, will there be one?

This whole idea of cooking is good until the first shot of liquor.)))
And then there's a mountain of unwashed dishes and a game of cards to see who will cook the pasta.

Maybe we should stock up on disposable tableware?

:smile12:

A cook and disposable personal tableware – that would be perfect for us.

We'll only have to wash the dishes that were used for cooking.

You're asking the wrong question. If a cook is needed, there will be one. The real question is: is one needed?

I agree with Peterius and Stinger. I know from experience: if I have a couple of shots before dinner, I usually wash the dishes in the morning. We won't let things get messy. And we won't use disposable tableware either; are we students on a camping trip?!

If I can convince my friend, he'll take on the whole process: from preparing the food to washing the dishes, so there's nothing to worry about. He's a good cook: he has over 10 years of experience, he enjoys it, and I've eaten his cooking several times – it's hard to find fault with it. He's a reliable person, and he'll cook as if it were for himself.

If it doesn't work out with him, we'll find someone else; it's not a problem.

We'll also give those who want to show off their culinary talents a chance. Just tell us what ingredients you need and in what quantity, we'll make the purchases, and we'll give you time near the stove or grill. And there will be someone to clean up/wash up afterwards.

Let's focus on the menu itself; we have 3 days left!

Should we meet it? What's the carriage number?

Ideally, it would be great if we could access the place as early as possible.
Regarding meeting, thanks for the offer, but how would that help us? We were planning to eat, relax, and maybe take a short walk around Kyiv. If you'd like to join, that would be great, especially since I understand you know the city well – what to see, where to go, and how much things cost.

However, based on my own experience, when I arrived in Donetsk at 6 am, I spent an hour looking for something that was open 24/7, but Kyiv is the capital, so there are probably more such places.

The carriage number is 13, and the train is 041.

I think options without a cook shouldn't even be considered. And I agree with Pete – eating for 100 UAH in Kyiv is a huge success. I can barely manage that in Mariupol, even with cooking at home twice and having lunch at the office. I think we should budget 130-150 UAH, including the cook's services. And considering the washing up and shopping, he'll probably need an assistant for a group of 15 or more people. Since we're planning for a quorum of around 20+, we can assume that this is essential.
Unfortunately, it's completely unclear who else will be attending – I understand that a large group of people have chosen to wait and see. Guys, at least vote for one of the options so that the names appear in the poll. It will encourage people to make the right decision. ))

I think we should plan for 130-150, taking into account the cook's services. And considering dishwashing and grocery shopping, he will most likely need an assistant for a group of 15 people or more, and since we are planning for a quorum of 20+ people, it can be considered a necessity.
The cook's and assistant's services, as well as grocery shopping, are already included in the price. It might be more expensive only due to the food, if the menu is unusual or someone wants delicacies. Or if a different cook is hired - I don't know how much he will charge, but I don't think it will be much.

I don't know what you want to see in Kyiv at 5 am. We don't have many places that are open 24 hours, and I'm not an expert on them; maybe someone else can suggest something. The metro opens at 6 am, and most restaurants do too (like McDonald's and similar places). I don't even know what to suggest. I offered that you could stay at my place until morning, but I'm not going to get up at 4 am just to go for a walk. In general, it's up to you. If you need someone to meet you, let me know.
