Hi, I'm from Brasov, I was smiling all through your video. What you ate at "La Ceaun" was like 2 days' meals for me. We usually don't eat "sarmale" - cabbage rolls in restaurants, we cook them at home, usually on Christmas, we also cook home "bulz" as dinner with family, it's easy to cook and keeps our belly full, with "ciorba de fasole in paine" - bean soup in bread is a different story, we cook beans in many different ways, but is very time-consuming to also bake the bread, so we eat that one when we get out for lunch. The pork we can eat at breakfast with eggs, at lunch with smushed potatoes and at dinner with salads. I have to check the "placinta" that you ate, because I don't think I've tasted that one, from exactly that place. Nice to watch that you enjoy some Romanian food, I enjoy them daily, I always do the same thing when I travel... I want to taste all the local cuisine.

Just a heads up. Palenta takes place of bread. So you eat palenta with sarmale or whatever the dish is, never palenta on its own like mashed potatoes or something like that. Palenta is basically corn bread. Also, always order papanasi in advance because it's always made fresh. It takes 20-30 minutes to make, so you better order it from the start next time.

Since when can’t we have polenta on its own? :) Polenta is really versatile; most often we have it as a side, like you would have mashed potatoes; we can eat it instead of bread; you already had “bulz” and polenta with cheese and sour-cream is another stand-alone dish, with polenta at the core. And - a bit out of fashion now - it can be a desert, by having it with milk.

The recipe for summer sarmale is minced poultry and rice wrapped in grape leaves and boiled in white wine - now these really are "to die for".

I'm a foodie from Brasov, I'm impressed you found the langos place on the corner. For 1 meal you got the right stuff to try . The bread bowl for the beans soup is an obscure tradition revived last few years as a marketing stunt. Petru is for bakery is what Mc'Donalds is for burgers. Next time you come here put on the brave pants and try the tripe soup and try the transilvanian-hungarian cuisine - goulash szupe, paprikas, baked pig leg, Kürtőskalács.

The place in the corner was a local's rec. That's the only reason why we found it.

What do you recommend for Covrig? Also yes, G is a big fan of Goulash and we do need to master the courage to try the tripe soup everyone has recommended... it's just that we are not used to eat that, but little by little we become more adventurous!

@@waysoftheworld_ When you go from town square to the Black Church go past it 100m or so and in a small pizzetta you will find a restaurant "Vino e Sapori" which is arguably best place for fresh pasta and it has a great chef. Next to it there's a bakery which seems successful. I'l be honest, pastry is not a romanian strong point but that artificial jelly like jam in your covrig looked nothing like how we make jams. If you're interested next time you're around drop a shoutout and I can teach you to cook tripe soup and maybe I can arrange for you to film the preparations for a traditional wedding. There's a trick I like to do, when the chef cooks 1500 sarmale for a wedding I ask him to sneak in that pot 2 smoked pig legs and cook them for me. Also a great food time in Romania is before Christmas, when traditionally the pig is killed in the yard and as some people prepare sausages and meat for the smoker, someone else cooks "pomana porcului - pig's last rights" , a simple delicious dish of fresh meat fried in pig fat with garlic and polenta and the kids get the tail and maybe 1 ear. From the ear, feet and other cartilaginous parts and some meat we make a jelly which is eaten next day with horseradish and is delicious. "Racitura" was actually a quite popular international dish in victorian era, we just kept making it. If you want a taste of communism buy a few slices of "parizer de Cristuru" with "Crenvustila" or "Olympia" mustard on fresh bread. That's the best local baloney. Best "mici" in town by far you can eat at Rapid near the main train station on Victoriei bulevard.

You guys also have to try: - Ciorbă de burtă or Ciorbă Rădăuțeană ( or both ). It's a heavy soup with garlic and cream, the first one has pork belly, the other one has chicken. I personally prefer the chicken one since it's lighter. - Mici. Lamb meat on the grill, usually served with mustard or a garlic sauce or in desperate times ketchup. It's not a deli dish but they're great on a summer day with a cold beer. - Colivă. Although it's usually served for funerals, it's really delicious. It's a sweet dessert with wheat, nuts, honey/sugar, almonds, etc. - Tochitură. It's a lot like bulz, but has some tomato sauce as well. Mamaliga/Polenta, salty cheese, a fried egg and some smokey meat ( ham/bacon ) It's hard to pick a favorite among our foods, but I'd have to go with Sarmale. Grandmothers always make the best ones.

Thanks so much for the recs :) We tried mici a few times and LOVED it!!! I can't believe we didn't try that chicken soup! Sounds like my (Aimara) kind of soup!!! We still have to try so many more Romanian foods honestly... we were not expecting to like it this much, but we are OBSESSED now and kind of sad because it's not easy to find in the US 😭 If I had to pick one food out of all the ones we tried, I would pick sarmale too. Would love to try one made by a grandma hahaha with all the love 😍

@@waysoftheworld_ We have a joke that Romanians have multiple stomachs because when you go to see your grandparents during the holidays they all make you eat 10 sarmale each. They are a beloved food. Did you try both the cabbage and the vine wrapping for sarmale?

You can't eat traditional romanian food in restaurants from a big city... În România receipts are very different from every region... But old type of romanian food is hard to find. Right now is hard to find the taste of some dishes like my grandmother used to cook. Even the cabbage rolls, are different , depends of region, county or family... But we have some old receipts that almost disappeared... It's so difficult to explain... We had a lot of simple type of food, based on some veggies and they are very rare in the present day. Anyway, our representatives are "mici", "ciorba de burtă", "sarmale" , "papanaşi"... and something from my region - "virşli" (special sausages, boiled or grilled ).

You eat the soup with the bread and take a bite of the onion. The aubergine spread you eat with the bread and tomato and onion at the same time, the flavors mix well all together. The sarmale you take on your fork polenta with sarmale you dip in cream and you bite the pepper after, all flavors need to mix in your mouth. Of course, you can eat it as you please.

You can get Langos, Kurtos, etc. and other Romanian food in Garden Grove CA, at the International Deli and meat store.

Great choices! The „covrig” are quite good here, and „La Ceaun” is a really good place for traditional food! (It's pronounced „La Tchea-oon” - Tchea like in Tchea-uchesku ;) ). If you're still around Brașov you can try to eat a burger at Passage (on the other side of the hill), at „Da Fud Dudes” - which is a trailer on the other side of the hill, in front of Magnolia shopping centre. For Italian, in Brașov, I recommend Dei Frati, best there are. There are a lot of pizza places, and if you have the time, also try the „coaste” (ribs) at Four Roses.

You should try cabbage rolls alone also and just savour it.. or together with palenta, you don t have to build it like a taco just take whatever you feel... the sour cream gives it another flavour although good as well.. the cabbage rolls have their own type of soureness.. also you should try the simple Covrig just with salt above it in form of an upside down 8 with whiteness around it.. you should try "Zacusca"(another vegetable paste ) , "slanina"(pig fat), untura(pig fat paste with red onion, or spring bell, boia or vegeta) , "ciorba de burta"(pig belly sour soup/pork ripe soup, unique receipe it may sound bad but it is extremely tasty and healthy)... also feel safe to try LANGOS with anything I specially recomend Langos w MUJDEI w whatever else.. MICI/MITITEI w Mustard and beer is also a must another of our national dish.. "Platou taranesc" (rustic platter) .. Sana.. etc... basically you don t need to build up your foods in Romania the flavours are carefully added to the dish, that might take away from its standard trad flavour.. SANA a special type of yoghurt you can find it in the supermarket, salam de biscuiti desert (rolled up dough with biscuits unique flavour).. many of these dishes are unique they might appear similar with other balkans but the flavour is unique..
