A well-known Russian chef and TV host shared his impressions of the Kuban regional center on his social media.
He visited Krasnodar to film another episode of a project where he explores local cuisine, cafes, and restaurants, compiling a gastronomic map of Russia.
Speaking about Krasnodar, he called it the most magnificent city and admitted that he always envies those who live in the regional center.
“Beautiful, warm, sunny, and very tasty,” is how the TV host described Krasnodar.
The chef noted that the city has its own rules.
“People buy meat at the market or in butcher shops, vegetables and fruits are always at great prices, and locals seem to simply not know that ‘non-organic food’ exists,” he wrote.
Judging by the published photos, the TV host not only visited Krasnodar’s cafes and restaurants but also went to the “Krasnodar” park.
Krasnodar
Krasnodar is a major city in southern Russia, founded in 1793 by Catherine the Great as a key fortress to defend the empire’s new borders in the Kuban region. It served as the historical and administrative center for the Cossacks and today is a vibrant hub for agriculture, industry, and culture in the North Caucasus.
Kuban
Kuban is a historical region located in southern Russia around the Kuban River, known for its fertile plains and Black Sea coastline. It was traditionally inhabited by Circassian peoples before being annexed by the Russian Empire in the late 18th century, leading to Cossack settlement. Today, it is a vital agricultural area and part of the Krasnodar Krai, blending Russian, Caucasian, and Cossack cultural influences.
Krasnodar park
Krasnodar Park, also known as the City Gardens of Krasnodar, is a historic public park in southern Russia established in the mid-19th century. It was originally founded by the Cossack ataman and city governor to provide a green recreational space for residents. Today, it remains a popular urban oasis, featuring landscaped gardens, fountains, and walking paths.
