Caru’ cu bere Lunch in Bucharest, Romania
















In Bucharest today 11 April 2018 (second day of our tour..first day was spent traveling for 10 hours) we were brought to the heritage restaurant Caru’ Cu bere!! 

This restaurant is more than a hundred years old and I was excited to see diners dining al fresco and hoped that we would get to be seated outside too to enjoy the cool weather. 





Wow!! A good lunch crowd and it was to get even busier soon 


Mr and my tour mate at the road leading to Caru’ ca bere. I do so loved the paved road, so antiquated !! 




Waiters and waitresses outside. 


This is what Vanessa the tour guide had for us : chicken soup with chives.


Main course was chicken breast with rice 

Dessert : rum infused cake 

Was thoroughly fascinated by the gothic interior, adding to the heritage feel of the place. 

Malaysians loved their smart phones while Romanians do not use phones while eating. 


Entering and exiting through revolving doors brings you back to nostalgic inducing past!! 
Do visit Caru’ cu bere when you are in Bucharest for a unique dining experience !!! 

From wiki: 
“The Caru' cu Bere (aka Carul cu Bere; "the beer wagon") is a bar and restaurant on Stavropoleos Street in the Lipscani district of BucharestRomania, opened in 1879[1] and moved to the current location, a gothic revival building designed by Austrian architect Siegfrid Kofczinsky, in 1899. It is noted for its distinctive art nouveau interior decoration.”
