Sergei Shukailo has changed his Belden Square eatery’s name from Pushkin, after the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin, to Leleka, a type of stork native to Ukraine. 'Our doors are open to everyone who wants to eat really great dumplings.”
Sergei Shukailo has changed his Belden Square eatery’s name from Pushkin, after the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin, to Leleka, a type of stork native to Ukraine.“We opened five years ago and named it Pushkin because he is known by anyone who grew up in those countries,” he said. “We did not think of as different cultures yet, the Soviet Union countries.”
Since the invasion in February, Reuters estimates that at least 47,000 have died, 15,000 have been displaced, 13,000 have been injured and 400 are missing. Those who are left will have to deal with $600 billion in property damage. As the war wages on, these numbers are only anticipated to increase. “What’s going on in Ukraine is not right,” he said. “My friends stayed in Donetsk. I have family all over Ukraine in different cities, including Kyiv. They’re all safe now, but it’s hard to say how permanent this safety actually is.”
As he champions his culture, Shukailo isn’t changing the menu much. He will still design his dishes around the traditional teachings of Ukrainian mothers and grandmothers, finishing with his own touch. He describes this as a “modern twist” on Leleka’s website, a trademark of the eatery even through its growth from the original International Food Court location.
