Overview

You will be welcomed into our home with open arms, where Patricia will guide you step by step through the preparation of traditional Romanian dishes, using fresh ingredients and authentic recipes.

This is not a formal cooking school, but a warm and personal experience where guests cook together, share stories, and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of a real Romanian home.

During the experience, you will prepare and enjoy a traditional Romanian menu that includes a local appetizer, bulz (a rustic dish made with polenta and cheese), and the famous Romanian dessert, papanasi, served together with traditional Romanian drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.

Guests often describe the experience as feeling like visiting friends, combining cooking, conversation, and genuine hospitality.

    What To Expect

    I invite you to join me in discovering and cooking two traditional Romanian dishes in our home kitchen.

    The first dish we will prepare is bulz, a rustic and comforting recipe made with creamy polenta and traditional Romanian cheese. It is a simple but flavorful dish that reflects the heart of local cuisine.

    The second dish is one of Romania’s most beloved desserts: papanasi. Together, we will prepare the dough using sweet cheese, eggs, and flour, then fry it until golden and serve it with sour cream and fruit jam.

    Throughout the experience, we cook step by step, share stories about Romanian traditions, and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of a real home.

    After cooking, we will sit down together and enjoy the meal we prepared — just like friends gathering around the table.
