Slow Bucharest
Hidden terrace with american food
Finally managed to find a nice, quiet place in the middle of our crowded city. This hidden terrace is spacious (also has some indoor seating if needed) and beautifully designed. Funny snails drawn on the walls, mirrors and nice elements all over.
You can find a pretty unique menu here, mostly with American origins, slow cooked - smoked meats, pulled pork/turkey, bagels, and even their special recipe of hummus with grilled peppers and turkey. With every item being cooked slowly and at not high temperatures gives everything on the menu a completely different taste than what you can eat in any fast-food place in town.
Also, the staff here was super nice and knowledgeable. And we absolutely loved that when you're done eating they bring you a wooden rack with clothing pins holding some wet wipes for you to use.
It is one of a kind place in Bucharest with a backyard like we've never seen before!
