Hello! Romanian here. So the smoked flavour in zacusca is because all the ingredients in it are cooked on the grill and then peled, mashed and cooked once more with the tomato sauce to bring you the goodness. So no artificial smoked flavour there.
Romania sausage is awesome I AGREE! There’s a Romanian man opening restaurant in ShenZhen, I bought two boxes of frozen sausages from him online and shipped to me, they are the best sausages I’ve ever had!😊
The mici (aka little ones) are grilled ground meat rolls in cylindrical shape but are not sausages, more like a burger ground meat in a different shape with different composition asi they us beef, pork and lamb all together with lots of spices.
There is actually one really really good Romanian dessert which we haven't included in this Romanian food video because we were just too stuffed haha. We will show you that in one of the next few videos!
Great video! I miss romanian food, we have a romanian restaurant in Cologne, but it is closed now, i guess the ones in Bruxelles were I had been many times, are closed now too...
I'm a romanian who visits Belgium two times, and I liked it a lot. I was in Brussels, Bruges, Gent, Oostende, Dinant, Mechelen. Welcome to Romania! Lovely videos!

Happy to see someone that actually did try the traditional food while traveling, I hope that restaurant's chef did us justice, as some restaurants use different recipes than what we'd call traditional, I once ate at one of those restaurants in Bucharest and even though the cabage rolls aka sarmales looked how they should, they did not taste anything close to what we're used to here in Transylvania and different from what I've tried in Moldova part of the country, same story with the Papanasi desert, I've ate hundreds of versions, each was done differently.

@@NaickKim Yes! I was born and raised in Romania(such a beautiful country). I always enjoy and I try to come back home every year. I am so excited for your content about Romania. You guys are my favourite channel from TH-cam (such high quality content). If you have curiosities about Romania and you didn't receive an answer I would be more than honoured to help you.
That's really nice to hear Anna. Where do you live now? There is one thing we were wondering about: the people in Romania (and especially Bucharest) seemed not very fond of us making videos. If we got the camera out, people would disappear very quickly and made sure to get very far away from us (even if we weren't filming them). At the market outside, at first we were told by a security guard we were not allowed to film, etc. We've never encountered this in any country before. Is there a specific reason for that?
@@NaickKim I live in Ireland. Well people in outside stores are a little bit "private". There are a lot of vloggers in Romania that walk on streets, in malls and nobody look at them weird anymore. But the main reason is that in outside stores people that sell there aren't usually from town and they aren't "the youth" so a big part of them don't know English and they are ashamed or afraid you would ask them something...and I traveled a lot in Bucharest but people are very different there(they are nice but there is a difference between them and Transilvanian ones). I hope you won't go through this thing again. It's not personal or racist it just that those people(outside stores) don't know to communicate in English and they don't want anyone laughing. I hope this would help you. I tried to write everything I could possibly think right know. 🤗
Confirming what Anna was saying. It is not from a bad place. It s just that not a lot of people walk around with a camera and talking to it :)))) . Especialy the older people dont understand that very well and maybe thinking that you are reporters and don t want to be in your vids. Youger people usually get out of the way to let you do your vlog in peace. Dont take it personally. Romanians are nice and welcoming to foreigners usually
We love cheese too haha. Yes this one was all about the food! In the next video we will be heading to Transylvania by train so that will be a regular vlog again ;)
The gooey cheese in the polenta it s actually aged cheese. It s delicious. Subscribed to you guys after this vid. You are amazing and i hope your chanel grows to the point that you finance your trips from youtube vids only. Success!!
Cant wait to see the black sea from your next posts,before that maybe find some hotspring to get body warm up,particularly in winter, i love hot water bathing, haha
We actually won't be doing the black sea this time because of the cold weather but we will definitely be going back (hopefully this summer) to see it properly :) we will be heading to Transylvania after Bucharest!
The Romanian food looks yummy and affordable. And those plates look huge. Hope you guys visit the states one day. Perhaps a camper van usa foodie tour? 😁 Great share, James are Kim
@@NaickKim We got out. Back in the states a little safer as virus spreads. Ncav statistic predictions are putting a damper on travel. Check out "Peak Prosperity" TH-cam channel. Safe travels guys, James and Kim
Thanks! We're now in Egypt and heading to India after this. Fingers crossed it doesn't spread wider. We're actually thinking of going back to China this year as it was one of our favourite countries. Hope the situation gets resolved soon.
Mici is not grilled on skiure! Meat is put on the grill in that form. Can be pork and veal or, traditionally is pork and sheep meat. Totally different from sausages 😜😁
Hi. You are very funny !! "Mic" means " little, small", and " Mici" is plural, means " littles". Mici war sausages at the beginning, 150 years ago. The story is that : A restaurant owner, 150 years ago, did not have pig intestines , where the minced meat was put, and he made a small sausages for hungry customers. It's possible to make a big sausage just if you are pig intestines. 🎉 Respectly, Cristian
WE JUST ARRIVED IN DELHI! 🇮🇳 had our first Indian meal tonight and it was so good 😭 (thali). Just a few more videos from Egypt and then we'll be posting India videos 😏💪🏻
