What do boxers at European championship eat? (photo)
A full-time smorgasbord with “coupons” is available in the hotels where sports delegations are living.
Participants of the European Boxing Championship (Minsk Palace of Sport, until June 8) eat in their hotels – Planeta and Jubeleinaya.
"We use coupons to eat every day. However, nobody checks those coupons,” one of Belarusian boxers told Euroradio. “There is a smorgasbord. You can take chicken chops, fish, salads, fruits and vegetables, potatoes, rice, juice.”
Euroradio: “It is okay but the menu is not that versatile as in, say, Turkish hotels. It looks rather meager.”
“In fact, the meals are organized well. It may look meager but there is everything boxers need. There is steamed meat. It is much worse at similar championships abroad. They may give you a smorgasbord in the morning and some unhealthy food in the evening. And then you will have to eat separately. There are no problems with meals in Minsk.”
