What you can expect

  • Embark on a culinary journey through Timișoara, discovering its modern and traditional street food. The street food scene here reflects the city's multicultural heritage, with influences from Hungarian, Serbian, Turkish, and Romanian cuisines.

    Begin your street food journey in the picturesque Victory Square, surrounded by beautiful buildings. Walk around the city and try the langoș – a Hungarian classic very much beloved by locals. This flavourful crispy deep fried dough comes with many choices for toppings – sweet or salty, it is definitely a local favourite.

    While walking around the old town of Timișoara, try the simple, yet easiest on-the-go breakfast, the Covrig and Sana – the Romanian pretzel that comes with different seasonings (poppy seeds, sesame seeds, salt or cheese), paired with a special fermented milk drink that has been popular for centuries.

    Leave the city center behind and take the public transportation to one of the historical neighborhoods, the Fabric area. Here, taste some locally produced pastry products before heading off to Timisoara’s largest farmer’s market. The market is a great spot to explore a variety of fresh produce, artisanal goods, and homemade delicacies.

    Street food vendors set up near the market, offering a unique experience to try some authentic Romanian flavors. A must-try are the traditional mici (mititei). These small, savory meat rolls made of minced meat (typically beef and pork) are seasoned with garlic and grilled to perfection. Served with mustard and fresh bread, they make for a great local experience. Add a pint of local beer to actually have them like locals do.

    As you move back to the city center, at your last stop, learn about favorite desserts in Timișoara. Try a local favorite sweet and learn about the rich culture of desserts along the past century.
