In-Depth Information
(Piaţa Unirii; mains 15-30 lei)
Piping out aromas of pork crackling in onion, meatball
soup, chicken liver and bacon and
sarmalute cu mamaliguta
(boiled beef rolled with ve-
getables, spices and cabbage), this redolent restaurant can be smelled from down the
street.
Baritiu 16 'Organic' $
(Str George Bariţiu 16; 8.30am-8pm; )
This bijou hole-in-the-wall cafe is the vit-
amin shot you need to give your feet sightseeing wings. Banish those carb-heavy meat
dishes with a carrot and orange juice, or a healthy sandwich.

Star department store.

PUB
Deane's Irish Pub & Grill
(Str Republicii 19)
As if transplanted from Donegal, this subterranean Irish pub, with its
early-20th-century cloudy mirrored bar, shadowy booths and old-world soundtracks, is a
haven for the Guinness-thirsty. Live music some nights.
Festival 39
(Str Republicii 62; 10am-1am)
This romantic watering hole is an art-deco dream of
stained-glass ceilings, wrought-iron finery, candlebra and leather banquettes, and has a bar
long enough to keep an army of barflies content. Sheer elan.
