In Videos: Estonian Chicken Kiev Commercial
I know I just posted an Estonian meat commercial yesterday, but I looked up more of director Harry Egipt's work and couldn't resist this commercial titled "Chicken Kiev." Because this isn't your typical Chicken Kiev—it's Chicken Kiev surrounded by young women dancing and sitting in a room of shiny, silver props who occasionally indulge in a forkful of chicken.
I don't get it, but that's probably the appropriate reaction. Watch the commercial after the jump.

It's actually for ground chicken patties (kana hakk schnitzel), not chicken kiev.
That, however, does not detract from its fabulousness.

@Fiksu: Thanks for the clarification! Just from viewing the video all I could say is that they're eating a lump of something; not sure why it's titled Chicken Kiev...or does it refer to something else?
Commercials today aren't nearly as fabulous. :(

I don't know why it's called Chicken Kiev. That would be kiievi kotlett. And it clearly says kana hakk schnitsel at the end.

It's as though it were produced by Video Aces. On spec.

What I finny about this is that, if this commercial were made in America, it'd be selling some processed food, as opposed to more "natural" meat.
