The grape leaves sarmale are just as traditional as the cabbage ones. You wont find them as often in restaurants but Romanians make them at home. At least in Moldova region where I grew up it was normal to have both when you d make a sarmale pot.

I should point out mamaliga is never eaten by itself. It's just a bread substitute. You mix it together with the main dish

Good to see you again, we rewatched your Ljubljana / Lake Bled video before traveling there this summer. Thank you so much.

sarmale mici and lots of other great dishes

[ayannafit]

Also, personal preference, we never eat sarmale with sour cream but with yogurt. My favourite are the vine leaf sarmale, hands down. (bonus tip, yoghurt is great as a side/dip to fries🤤)

Beautiful video, Beautiful couple, God bless

[petruflorin]

guys, you're supposed to construct each bite with one part sarmale and one part mamaliga, and not eat them separately 🙂

The beauty of our strong beverages is that its sweet and you don't realize that you get drunk

[robertaariadne]

Guys I loved this video, so nice to watch. Can you discribe the names of plates did you have eat? I would like try on my travel to Bucharest soon. Thanks.

Forgot to mention the egg plant salad (salata de vinete) is the best; it goes well with tomatoes! Zacusca is still #1 but egg plant salad is not far off.

[delsiag.]

Hi guys! I did a double take! Are you traveling again?

[alexandrupatru]

That meal looked like what grandma would cook during fasting days and, while I am not a vegetarian, I had a rainy mouth all the way. Thank you for the hard work and uploading the videos, great quality content! Have you decided when you're coming back to Romania yet?

[drewcorry]

I wish both of you a Merry Christmas. Are more trips coming 2024??
