Comteia Bucharest
An all-time pastry shop
Well, as I have written in other posts, I will recommend pastry shops and candy shops as I am in love with sweets.
'Comteia' is a pastry shop that is worth a visit every time you are around Piata Romana. So, I go to Comteia quite often for their unique 'American pie'. It is only 4.5 Lei, which means less than € 1, and it is worth every cent and more. Among their selection, I must mention 'Lamaita', which is a lemon pie, and 'Cornulete', which are Turkish delight rolls.
I enjoy savouring the pie on the go and I always buy two to have another one for later. If you're hungry and on the run, I highly recommend their salty products or something with ham and cheese, and for dessert, the raisin cheese pie.
Don't miss the other pastry products they have...
