Le Bab Bucharest

A vibrant place!

""Le Bab" in Bucharest is a really surprising restaurant. I can recommend the Burnt Pumpkin Hummus and the Cheesy Tater Tots. Oh, just find the bathroom..."

One evening, wandering in the streets of Bucharest, I discovered this place and I just entered it without expectations. And I was really surprised in the end. I discovered their menu (it is not very diversified) and tried the Burnt Pumpkin Hummus and Cheesy Tater Tots and found them absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is very cozy and friendly and you'll get to spend a very relaxed time.

Regarding the service - it was flawless. I was really pleased by the fact that the food was brought quickly and I liked the attention to detail.

The bathroom is hidden -- at first impression you won't find it because it is surrounded by mirrors. Its appearance is industrial and in the background you can hear a podcast in English about how to cook certain dishes and other important information about cooking.

The design of Le Bab has industrial elements combined with dreamy pastel colours and marble bars - making it very interesting!

About me Love to laugh. Always looking for a good story. Love to communicate and to organize events. Love to travel & take photos. Ice cream addict. Why Bucharest? I love the energy of this city. The way it buzzes. Always inspiring you to do something new. Always full of life. Sometimes I like to just walk and admire the old beautiful buildings, look at the people and feel like a tourist. It is a nice exercise to see things that you sometimes might ignore. There are times when I like to discover new streets, new people, new...
