When I was in Russia, I actually found out that they don't like McDonald's so much, they mostly prefer BK and KFC. I'd usually tell my friends "yo let's ask for some delivery" and always had to fight with them because I wanted McDonald's and they wanted either BK or KFC. Of course that's just my experience but the fact that McDonald's left Russia while burger king and KFC are still there 8 months later pretty much confirms McDonald's don't get so much profit from Russia lol

USA MacDonald's service has gotten terrible. The kids they're hiring aren't the best workers, they often can't make change, they get orders messed up and they often forget napkins, condiments, straws and coffee cream. MacDonald's may have started in America, but since Roy Krock stopped being the CEO the service has gotten terrible. MacDonald's in America is on the way towards bankruptcy and Burger King isn't far behind. Glad to see they're still doing well in Russia-albeit under a different name.

While there is a great deal of misinformation within all of the United States, the difference is that within this misinformation is often critical of the government (see Fox News), whereas within the Russian Federation we see that information and misinformation only comes from media organizations who supports the Russian President. And any misinformation or information within the Russian Federation from the opposition parties never gets to reach the mainstream airwaves. Again though I send my love to all of Russias people and hope that you may find a peaceful resolution to this problem which well ensure long lasting peace and prosperity to Russians and Ukrainians alike ✌️❤

В середине мая компания объявила, что покинет российский рынок, так как дальнейшее владение бизнесом в стране «больше не целесообразно и не соответствует ценностям» компании. Российский бизнес McDonald's выкупил бизнесмен из Кузбасса Александр Говор, который управлял по франшизе 25 ресторанами сети. В июне сеть открыла первые рестораны под новым названием «Вкусно - и точка».

Great video! Being russian it's always interesting to see usual things from different perspective Of Raf coffe You mentioned - it's an espresso with a lot of hot cream + syrup sometimes. There is nice story behind the name - in erly 2010's in one of Moscow's specialty coffe places there was a regular client - film director with the name Raphael. Once he ordered "something new" and barista swapped milk in latte for cream. Everyone kind of liked it and started asking for "Raphael coffe", then it shorted to "Raf". The drink became popular, but only +/- in borders of former USSR, for whatever reason

When you compare salaries one should point out that salary in Russia is usually given after personal income tax is deducted, while in US it is usually before taxes.

@@alonferan Conditions in Russia right now are literally better than most of Europe and most of America, you are seriously delusional. The majority of Americans live in the rural dust bowl and don't even have functioning train networks, healthcare or in some cases a clean water supply.

To be honest Macdonald's fastfood is so popular in Russia because we don't have a very developed taste and consider this delicious. If you go to Western Europe in some countries McDonald's is in the minority among restaurants because it's not popular because of the quality of the food. Where I live now, there are only a couple of Macdonald's restaurants in the whole city, while in Russia they are almost at every metro station.

The best thing about it is "Vkusno i Tochka" (the Russian version of "Mac") belongs to a Russian citizen. So Russian people visiting "The Tochka" don't finance the American economy, but rather invest money into their own Russian economy. That was the biggest issue for me going to "Mac" as I didn't want to finance the American economy waging wars all around the world.
