A wonderful cook, a stern and incorruptible taster, a video blogger with a great sense of humor. This is how anyone who has ever watched his video can describe Oblomov.

Biography of Glorious Friend Oblomov

The real name of the video blogger is Oleg Grigoriev. The man was born on March 28, 1989. The city in which the future "taster of the entire Internet" was born is still unknown. As well as information about the names of parents and their professions. Oleg prefers not to disclose this information, since he protects his family and personal life in every possible way from outside interference. This is understandable, because millions of loyal subscribers watch him every day. From the off-screen life of Oleg Oblomov, it is only known that the man has an older sister and a half-brother. The father of the video blogger left the family shortly after the birth of the boy. Oleg was brought up by his stepfather, about whom the man speaks very warmly and calls his dad.

As a teenager going to university, Oleg moved to a city known as "Petra's Creation". There he mastered the speci alty in the field of architecture, successfully received a diploma, but flatly refused to work in this direction.

In the biography of the video blogger Oleg Oblomov, the fact that the man started a YouTube channel even before the advent of monetization (in 2010) is noteworthy. Cooking videos were just a hobby for him, and freelancing became his main source of income - creating websites.

…And so oblomoff is born

As already mentioned, in 2010 Oleg decides to start his own YouTube channel. Not receiving any income from videos, interrupting only with his additional earnings, he filmed videos on simple cameras, being in the old kitchen. The picture, like the videos themselves, were really amateurish, but the charisma and charm of the then young guy paid off. He was noticed, people began to subscribe to him. Subsequently, many brands associated with the food industry began to offer cooperation to the blogger.

As for the pseudonym, it stuckbehind Oleg during the man’s passion for video games and therefore became the first thing that came to the blogger’s head. No wonder that in the age of social networks, the name Oblomov is associated among young people not with the hero of the book, but with a talented self-taught chef.

So-so cook

Oleg Oblomov never called himself a professional chef, moreover, he focused on the lack of any culinary skills. He even called himself a "so-so culinary specialist", but the man's subscribers compare him with Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay. Perhaps because Oleg learned to cook with his viewers, listening to their advice and absorbing information. As the channel grew, so did Oblomov's experience. The man gradually moved from basic recipes to complex culinary experiments.

Now the video blogger pleases his subscribers with both simple budget recipes and unusual dishes. His arsenal includes cobra in soy sauce, crocodile in kefir, smoked eels and swordfish with potatoes. Agree, few Internet chefs are ready to try so hard for the sake of what they love.

Petersburg taster

Like any person who likes to eat delicious food, but does not have time to cook a lot, Oleg uses food delivery. "And tasty, and fast, and hot!" - this is how Oblomov describes his favorite "Count Krasnov" and "Butcher's Shop". The man had to resort to the services of restaurant deliveries so often that he came up with the idea to introducePetersburgers with them.

It is worth noting that the video blogger is very picky about the food he brings. It takes into account travel time, temperature, weight matches and, of course, the taste of the dishes. Even the number of napkins and toothpicks plays an important role. The most frequent dishes that Glorious Friend tries are sushi and pizza. Why? Yes, because this is the most familiar food for Oleg's target audience.

Nowhere without collaborations

Like any video blogger, Oleg attracts strangers to his videos. Most often, Oblomov's girlfriends and his friend Kostya, who is a professional chef, act as assistants. But it does not do without collaborations with other famous video bloggers. Among them are Andrei Nifedov, Dmitry Larin, Kuzma and others. The most frequent guest on Oleg's channel is the infamous Yuri Khovansky. Together, the men prepared royal burgers, champion breakfast, marinated shrimp. In addition, Yuri appeared in Glorious Reviews, where he expressed his opinion regarding deliveries along with Oblomov. Despite the popularity of invited guests, subscribers of the oblomoff channel note that it is much more pleasant for them to watch Oleg alone, because such videos are filled with the charm of a Glorious Friend.

For sweets

Sweets in the fate of Oleg Oblomov have a special place of honor. The most popular videos on his channel were reviews of cheesecake.ru products, with which the man has been fruitfully cooperating for a long time. Exactlythese video reviews brought Oleg the greatest popularity and an influx of subscribers. Inspired by the desserts that have been provided for sampling more than once, Glorious Friend Oblomov created a separate playlist where all the experiments of the video blogger are collected. Naturally, the experiments are culinary and dedicated to the preparation of unusual desserts. Here you can see a multi-layered multi-colored jelly in a metal bucket, and a huge cake in a grandmother's bowl, and a bunch of other sweets.
