In vestul Romaniei a fost tot timpul plin de straini in special cele 2 natiunii conlocuitoare ... In Craiova am fost doar noi, romanii ... nu a avut cine sa povesteasca. Dar sper sa ajung eu luna viitoare ... si am sa mai fac un set de video.

[@nydydn]

14:30 Romanian eating etiquette works as follows. A proper lunch or dinner meal is a 3 course meal that starts with the first course (felul întâi), that is always some sort of soup. Then the second course (felul doi) comes that's usually some meat with some side (not that the soup is meatless). The second course is considered the main dish. And ultimately you get the desert. It is acceptable to skip any of the 3 courses, so you can have only a soup, or only mici, or only desert. But if one person has 2 courses, say ciorba de burta and mici, and the other person has only 1 course, say varza a la Cluj, then the waiter will first only serve the first course, wait for that person to finish, and then serve the second course to everyone. At a good restaurant, this also applies if one person gets ciorba de burta, and the other person orders mici, meaning that the ciorba de burta will be served first, and only after that course is done, the mici will be served. So Steve, you should be happy that Ivana dived right in that ciorbă de burtă, because otherwise both of you would have waited forever. If you want for all the food to be brought at once, you have to say "toate odată", literally all at once. Otherwise, you're right Steve that people usually wait for everyone to start eating, but that only applies to food in the same course. Since you declined to have a first course, Ivana didn't have to wait for anyone else.

[@kungfu3299]

It's not "Romanian" eating etiquette, it's eating etiquette. It's just that in western countries people generally lack any education on manners. You can see this guy eating Mici in the airport with his hands in another video, disgusting.

Craiova is known as the wedding dress center. Many people in Romania buy their wedding dress from Craiova, regardless of where in Romania they live or have their wedding. Even if there are wedding dress shops in other cities, there's a good chance they're just outlets of Craiovan wedding dress brands.

@@iuliandragomir1 Mici is not something that people used to accept in the centre, is more like a bbq for Piața Mare, Park or Târg, usually. But, since, along the terraces and fancy restaurants there are now also fast foods, seems like it's not that shun upon. Which is OK, in a way. They're good. Nothing to be ashamed of if you like it. And praz? Only ate it made by some Hungarian girls in Timișoara and I don't really think it should have tasted like that. Not too popular in Craiova. Maybe in TV sketches about the countryside 60 years ago. Cause I have visited the countryside a few times IN OLTENIA too and no one grew or bought some to eat. There's some idiot chef that made a pizza fast food joint with praz in in in Craiova. Might be worse than pineapple, never tried it.

About the flowers, it is customary in Romania to bring flowers at a fist date, actually at the fist dates and also after the relationship starts whenever you feel like it, not only at anniversaries and such. My first date with my now 10 years husband was waiting for me beside his car with a big bouquet of roses in the passanger seat, opening the car door for me, then a nice caffe and a walk in the park. And second and third date was sending flowers and chocolatte at my office before meeting. Now he is doing this every anniversary always switching the chocolates with something else. So yeah, romance is not dead, you just have to find great people to share it with. And i would like to see this more in younger generations, but as you can see in the park, they are keeping the tradition alive. We love you guys, and get Ivana flowers or small things for no reason at all. It is a great feeling for both, to see her joy is everything. Love you guys, you have to come to Romania sometime for Christmas, belive us 😍🤗

The people who told you Craiova is dangerous are probably not from Craiova.

Of course oltenians are known for being very fiesty and quick to argue, I am not a prime example of that. We are also known for eating a ton of leeks and garlic soups which we call saramură,other oltenian dishes are ciorbă de raci, ciorbă de măsline(Olive soup), leek soup, sauted garden sorrel(ștevie) with a lot of garlic, cococi (like tortilla), litterally vegan sarmale, leek pie, leek shtrudel, leek everything, ostropel de pui (different than saramură), saramură de teci ( yellow bean garlic soup) and of course the main sauce we make with only garlic, salt and oil called mujdei and mămăligă.

Guys, a personal opinion. It's much better if you visit places having a local guide. Romanian people are nice and hospitable, it's impossible to not find someone ready to give you 2-3 hours of his/her time at no expense! Just post a request on one of your clips then select one or more candidates. Then, if you want, you can retrace your itinerary alone if you want. At least in Romania it's not a problem of safety, but one of interpretation. We are proud people but we're also aware we're not perfect. If your local guide has a good handling of English, he's also probably open-minded and okay with some criticism coming from you.

[@catalin.stanciu]

You were talking about the musical fointain at some point in the video. I think that the fountain in front of the Craiova city hall was the one you were looking for. I don't know if it is still working or not, anyway you could go back to Bucharest at Unirii Square where are all those big fountains in the center of the street (at the other end of the Parliament building). Those fountains definitely are musical during the night and also include some pretty nice lights -they are playing only in the weekend evenings, but don't remember if all year around or only in spring summer and autumn 😁. Maybe other people can leave a comment with more details.

If you did not get to see Fantana Muzicala in Craiova, maybe you can try the Fantana Muzicala in Pitesti (only 1hr away by car) :), it's also a cool relaxing city, with a beautiful natural forest called Trivale (the Tri-Valley), and has a lot of awesome parks, Arges river and entertainment - Zoo/Planetarium/old churches/museum/târg - and a whole lot of MICI ! (it's also on the way to Danube)

The musical fountain worked for the first 2,3,4 years i dont remember exactly. You can find videos of it on youtube. I believe its not working anymore as it was build and operated by some chinese manufacturer and they finished the contract or something and no its not "singing" anymore :D.

Yeah, I used to love the relaxed after work feeling the musical fountain was giving Me, it was just as much of a normal staple kind of thing for the people here as Ravel's Bolero at sunrise in Vama Veche. Oh well... Here's hoping it will be fixed someday.

I also bought my wedding dress in the first shop you showed. 🤗If you are staying longer, you can also go to Constanta, by the sea. If you need any ideas you can message me and I can give you advice. I'm so glad you're enjoying Romania. Good travels x

[@lauram4168]

Yes Steve you should buy some flowers for Ivana, just like that ...a surprise 😊😘 I'm sure she will love it

16:47 Some people still live in 1990-2000. Yes, back then Craiova was something else but now is very safe. Of course, like all places in this world, not 100% perfect and sometime you can meet not very nice people, but still a nice and safe city.

You should go an visit Oradea. It grew a lot in the last 10 years.

[@sandrasorina3820]

Great video, i appreciate very much that you promote this beautiful city, with friendly people! And of course it's not a gangster city, you're right, i agree! I hope you will return in Craiova next year, to see the city in the summer too, to see your friend Ana and eat mici again in the Old Town and also in the Nicolae Romanescu park. When you will get married, it would be nice for Ivana to buy her wedding dress from the Old Town of Craiova 😊
