Food by Locals | Private Food & Culture Tour in Bucharest

Discover Bucharest through its surprising mix of flavors! What better way to get a taste of a new culture than by exploring the many different hues and aromas that make up its local cuisine? Old & new, cheap & expensive, traditional & avant-garde - you name it! Bucharest's gastronomical offer has it all. Not to mention the excellent choice of Romanian wines that turn any meal into a small celebration of life. Though I am by no means a connoisseur I do love a good glass of liquid poetry and will gladly provide wine-tasting opportunities for my guests. Whether wine is or isn't your thing I am pretty sure you'd like to try a delicious 'ciorba' followed by some nice 'sarmale with mamaliga' and maybe some 'papanashi' for dessert. . . My mouth is watering already! Give your taste buds an experience to remember while also getting to know the why's behind Romania's diverse cooking and eating habits.

I plan on surprising you with every step of this food tour. Therefore I will do my best to first find out your interests and tastes in food and then offer an itinerary made just for you! Some of the regular stops on this tour include: * a local fresh produce market * a family-run deli store specialized in cold cuts, cheeses, and other yummy things * a delicious pastry shop I've been in love with since high-school * the best coffeehouses in town * the nicest restaurants serving traditional food - typical dishes from all the historical regions of Romania. The list is long and open to your particular preferences. As for the sights you are going to visit during our tour - rest assured they will include the most important edifices and squares of modern Bucharest as well as the intricate streets and stories of the Old Town dating back to the Middle Ages.
