Perepichka

Perepichka is an iconic Ukrainian street food item consisting of a soft, not overly seasoned sausage that is enclosed within yeasted dough. The whole combination is deep-fried, and it is usually served piping hot without any condiments. The first version of this favorite Kyiv street food appeared in 1981 at a small kiosk on Bohdan Khmelnytsky street.

Perepichka was an instant success, and this hole-in-the-wall food outlet became somewhat of an institution for both locals and tourists.
