Buy from Corint BooksWe invite you to a tasty journey through Romanian food of the past. We encourage you to take part, thanks to your imagination, in the feasts of yesteryear. Our journey will take us from the Royal Palace to the traditional Spring fair in Bucharest, from the Phanariot times to the interwar period, from the heavy and spectacular meals served in the boyar manors, during the 19th century, to the complicated, refined and elegant French cuisine. We will try to revisit a nice part of our past, which could even give us some ideas for nowadays meals.
Ana Iorga and Filip-Lucian Iorga
