blind date:
Very talkative canteen worker.

Most of the things in the canteen are marked with „Vilniaus degtinė“ logos.

Everything is new.

Canteen is full of flowers. Orchids included.

Various types of dishes, even after lunch time.

Cosy interior.
Head spinning corridors with old squeaky floors.

Young diners.

Eating in the canteen felt like sitting in a sauna.

Painting on the wall and cleanliness.

Architecturally interesting building for a walk after lunch.

Impressive pink walls.
One won’t find two identical plates in the canteen.

If you are in a hurry, you can eat your quick lunch sitting at the bar.

If you are bored, you could try guessing the names of the plants at the windows of the canteen. I guess that would take you at least a week.

A coat rack.

A good location in a center of the city.

Air conditioning system (though, it was not working on my visit day).
Availability of alcohol.

Great window view.

Enormous mirror near the exit.

The location is hard to find.

Big tables if you want to have lunch with a group.

A lot of artificial flowers.

Sincere concern of a cook: „How come you’re not eating soup? That is not healthy.
Furniture, walls and interior details that remind of the Soviet times.

A long table always served for the banquet.

A male cook in the kitchen.

Soft and nice music.

Special enclosed corridor for the queue. Very interesting thing.

Conveyer for dirty dishes.
Unexpected location for a canteen – a dormitory between skyscrapers.

Colourful carpet on the wall.

Young diners.

Exceptional service for newcomers.

Food portions with a little bit extra.

School kids, who willingly show you the way to canteen.
Vintage interior.

Long conveyer for dirty dishes.

The students in the canteen are open for discussions about physics, law, economics or communication science.

A microwave oven for heating food you brought from home (though heating your food is not allowed, but when the staff doesn't see...)

Radio announcing about the situation on the roads for drivers.

No queues in the canteen during lectures.
Enormous work of ceramics on the wall.

Red colour that makes a place look mysterious.

80’s style corner bar with glossy lamps and curved lines.

Flowers everywhere.

Students and quite intelectual discussions among them.

Funny carved heart shaped chairs.

Great combination of colours! Yellow walls match blue artificial flowers.

Fresh coffee and an espresso machine!

A sink to wash hands.

A coatrack.
Disco for people over 30 on weekends and disco style attributes in the canteen.

Enormous picture on the wall. Painted poppies could open a discussion about a landscape painting.

Old-fashioned bar near the canteen with the same workers as in the canteen.

Old-fashioned russian samovar in case you want some tea on lunch.

Surprisingly pleasant smell of flowers mixed with freshly mashed potatoes.
Microwave oven – you can use it to warm up your own food.

Company store selling sweets at the same place.

Easy to read sign of WC – you will never have to ask for the way.

A smell of chocolate and cheap candies (and somehow cheap portions of ice-cream too).

Fan-page on the Internet.

Sophisticated food that one won't find in other canteens (escalopes, Chicken Kiev, etc.).

OPEROS IR BALETO TEATRAS
The Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre always look grand – a magnificent palace, astonishing sculptures and fountains, and a great collection of chandeliers. Something similar can be said about the canteen of the theatre. Dark wooden walls, stained glasses and elegant cups will astonish everyone. But, there is one but here. The canteen is available only for workers.

Entrance
The canteen of the Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre is just as refined and sublime as the pause between plays in the theatre – dark walls and old yellow chandeliers. It seems that in a moment Figaro will come to offer you a cup of traditional hot chocolate or some brandy for the older.

Wooden tables, stained glasses and napkins decorated with golden patterns are a great sight for visitors of the canteen. Don’t be surprised – the menu here is traditional, as in the majority of canteens. So one will be offered a plate of cold borshch (lt. šaltibarščiai) and a few chicken dishes. And, not surprisingly – “Rafaelo” sweets – you couldn't imagine the canteen of the theatre without them.



Interviu su valgyklėlės virėja Terese


So what is your favourite dish?
I'd say, salads. All of them are delicious; I don't even know the names of all of them.
Do you cook at home?
Of course. I don't have my speciality dish.. I cook simple ones. All kind of steaks. In general, I like meat.
What do you think the Dutch eat?
I have no idea. I have never thought about it. I know what Italians eat: cannelloni, spaghetti, etc. I have never been to Holland, so I don't know. We used to have a Dutch artistic director working here, so he used to eat in the canteen.
