I wanted to talk today about the best food from my country Romania. Maybe you heard of it, maybe you didnt. It's a small country in Europe, a traditional one, near the Black Sea ( and if you ask if the Black Sea is really black, no it's not. It's actually green). Maybe you heard of us because of the protests of this month, because we are fighting corruption, and indeed we're not winning this time.
Anyway, let's talk about the think that romanians are best at: cooking. We have so many traditional food and drinks, you surely may have eaten some of them. We have stuffed cabbage rolls , ''mici'' that are some beef rolls on grill, polenta with like everything ( cheese, sour cream, milk, jam) , some food that is specific for funerals named ''coliva'' ( funny thing, is a desert), and as drinks ''tuica'' named firedrink. I assure you, two shots of that and you'll sleep, and our traditonal wines.
Hope I didn't bored you, but I think the world is better with every country's traditional food!

@topffer it,s totally not for ladies. Maybe just for the tough ones. Usually the old people at country side use it as a medicine drinking it in the morning on the empty stomach, for a better digestion. Some people drink it warm in the winter time.

We have an increasing number of Romanians here in the UK, so like what happened with the Polish, I expect to see more of your food available to buy plus recipes.

@MALUSE i know that romanian dont have a very good reputation because of the 'rroms'who are usually known as beggers. They are minorities here in Romania, and they go outside by the origin of romanians, even if they are not. This is a national problem that we're dealing with from years and years. But most of the romanians who immigrate integrated in the comunities very well. I know many comunities of romanian even in america, in Portland, Oregon, there are lots.

I enjoy trying new food. I am sure Romania food is very delicious. Your attached image is so attractive. So far Romania is not a very popular traveling country to my country yet. Since it depends on the flight, visa and so on. But I am sure I will be interested in traveling Romania one day.

@bichih2o At first I shall check the visa. Namely I will see whether it is not so complicated to apply for a visa to your country. At present it is easy to get a visa to Russia and this is why we have travelled there twice. And second I will check the flight to see whether I can find nice price. After these are no problems, I will be happy to travel to your beautiful country. I know it is worthy to have a visit

The prices are very low, and it's really beatiful in here, even if we don't have popularity. We have lots of caves in the mountains, lakes and beautiful blaces to see. Even if it's little , I havent seen half of it. Looking forward to travel more

I find that very interesting. I always thought stuffed cabbage rolls were Polish, but maybe they are made all over Europe.

I love trying traditional delicacies when travelling, it helps me to understand the country better.
To be honest, I used to think black sea might be darker, hence the name just like black sand beach. Thanks to my geography teacher that I know better.

I am from Bulgaria - your south neighboring country. Our traditional meals are the same except some of them: polenta, beef rolls, tuica. This is our common traditional Balkan kitchen. Bulgarians congratulate you for the protests against corruption. Corruption is Bulgarian problem too.
