Well, although Ukrainians are less hospital than people from Transcaucasian but anyway we are quite famous in this regard too. When somebody pays us a visit, we try to do our best for the guests.
Feeding them to death is one of our traditions :)) Don't be afraid, cuisine is delicious. If some of you someday pays me a visit, I promise, I won't force you to eat pork fat (our national food and the favourite subject of Ukrainian jokes,, apart from 'nationalism' but it's another story... very exaggerated btw).
For foreigners paying us a visit, we always cook the national food : borstch, pampushky, varenyky, galushky, mlynci (pancakes) and many others.
No pork fat, LOL. Btw I dislike it myself too :)
Traditionally we like be sitting around a big table, eating and talking. And singing. Ukrainians is a very "singing" nation. Historically Ukraine is known by great vocal potential.
However I'm not big fan of "table singing", maybe because of my music school childhood. If people sing, they should do it well. Otherwise it is transferred into cacophonie of drunk shoutings, which I strictly dislike. Especially singing of people who don't have ear for music. It's terrible. But,,, maybe it looks exotic for foreigners, I don't know :)))
