FOOD AND BEVERAGES

Coffee in Romania

When in Romania, do as the Romanians do . . . and don't drink coffee in a coffee house ! Choose an aperitif instead. With your Dubonnet or Vermouth, you will also receive a portion of cheese, accompanied by olives, onions, tomatoes, radishes ‑ or perhaps meatballs, or various kinds of cold meats. Rinse it down with a good wine or tzuica.
