So I have been here in Bucharest for more than a day. Last night we ate at a restaurant located here within the hotel, Benihana. For those of you who do not know, it is a hibachi type Japanese restaurant. Nothing special really and a little overpriced. But we were all tired and hungry so it hit the spot.
This morning we took a taxi for about 30 minutes to the local office and after getting our badges registered to work with the card readers here it was off to the cubicles and meeting room that they reserved for us for the day. We had a nice time and a catered lunch followed by some introductory meetings. We got a map drawn up for us and after 30 minutes at the hotel to freshen up a bit we were off to the town. We wandered around downtown until we found a restaurant to our liking and then settled in for a great dinner. I had some pork steak with a wonderful red wine sauce with mashed potatoes…
Really, that sauce was very good. As we headed out of the restaurant the doorman and the chef were hanging out just outside the restaurant so we were able to express our love for his food. We then headed downtown toward the Palace of the Parliament…
My camera is not really high quality enough to do this awesome building justice. We then flagged down some taxis and caught a ride back to the hotel. It is 1 am local time so I need to get to bed but it was a very nice day overall. I am looking forward to tomorrow.
