About this experience
This is a full dinner experience at hidden local places — not a tasting tour. Join Dan & Patricia for an intimate, hosted food and storytelling experience in Bucharest’s Old Town.
Explore the historic center while enjoying traditional Romanian food from carefully selected local spots, including hidden places known mostly by locals.
Along the way, Dan shares personal insights about Romanian history and everyday life, while Patricia curates an authentic food experience that reflects local traditions and flavors.
Guests often describe the experience as feeling like spending time with friends, combining conversation, culture, and delicious home-style food.
A highlight of the experience is visiting a lesser-known traditional restaurant preserved in an authentic 1980s-style atmosphere, a place most visitors would not find on their own.
The experience takes place in a small group setting for a relaxed and personal atmosphere.
