Take advantage of this fine spring weather and visit the Brukenthal Palace!

Here you can taste the new season’s menu, which the chefs of the former Summer Residence of Samuel von Brukenthal have especially prepared for the next period.

This time of year the “stars” of the new menu are the nettles, the spinach and the unfailing parsley, all grown right in Brukenthal’s garden.

The covetous type of people will fall in love with the finest and most delicious food inspired from both traditional Romanian and international cuisine.

 

For soup fans, the chefs propose two delicious recipes: nettle cream soup with croutons, or salad soup with fried eggs and bacon.

Parsley can be found in the new menu in a surprising combination with…. pancakes. More exactly parsley pancakes stuffed with vegetables and Hollandaise sauce.

The house special is the Talfespitz, served with horseradish cream, vegetables and boiled potatoes – Emperor Franz Joseph’s favorite food! You’ll also find localy grown Angus beef dishes.

When it comes to dessert, well…it’s their season, so strawberries are ruling the dessert section of the menu. Strawberry mint salad or strawberries with vanilla foam and whipped cream are waiting to be enjoyed on the Baroque terrace of this beautiful complex, a unique objective in Romania.

The park and buildings of the Brukenthal Palace of Avrig are among the most outstanding monuments of Baroque Transylvanian time. Once called “Transylvania’s Eden”, the Brukenthal Palace is now the only Baroque ensemble in Southern Transylvania which won the battle with time.

Since 2011, the entire complex has undergone complex renovations and today the resort is open to visitors who want to enjoy the special atmosphere in the shadow of the Carpathian Mountains.

Pay the Brukenthal Palace a visit, and dine like royalty in the majestic restaurant, or the marvelous garden. Make a reservation with Travelscounter, and you’ll have both a reserved spot and a 20% discount applied to the final bill! Enjoy!
