The Dubliner “Dub” Irish Pub

Bucharest Expat — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:06:10 +0000

Attention Newbie Expats… A true “off the beaten path” experience is the ever so popular expat hangout and pub “The Dubliner”. Probably one of the first of these pubs in Bucharest, is one of the “Standards” for which a lot of the other pubs are measured. Located just away from Piata Victoriea on Nicolae Titulescu, keep your eyes peeled for the big green sign behind the trees. Although it has died down a bit since “the crisis” you’ll still find yourself in great company, whether you’re there to eat, there to watch sports, or just stopping by. The Guinness is poured as it should be, and in my opinion the food is to die for and affordable! My top pick? A pint of Guinness, The hot chicken and mushroom pie and a plate of chips with the Heinz 57 Spicy Pimento Sauce sprinkled on top. Good luck finishing the pie! It’s huge! If this is not to your taste, the menu itself probably weighs 2 kilos, so there is definitely something for everyone.

Piata Unirii is also home to the sister pub “Harp” which has a better atmosphere, but fewer expats and pricer chow.

Bellagio Club Experience

Bucharest Expat — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 09:47:11 +0000

Those of you looking for a decent club experience in a location that is slightly upscale with decent remixes of todays dance hits as well as some interesting twists on 80′s music, than you may check out Bellagio. htttp://www.BellagioClub.ro

My wife and I went there last night with a friend of ours from the states. They were having a grand re-opening party last night (Not sure why they were re-opening, maybe seasonal, maybe due to renovations? I did not get straight answers when I inquired).

We were at Bellagio regularly last year (last December-ish) and the experience was light years better than the experience of last night. The have moved the once impressive stage away. the stage in now a small box centered in the middle of the bar island, as well as some strange and small upper corner stage towards the rear of the building. All areas can be seen in the club as it does have an excellent, open layout.

So with the diminished stages and degradation in the choreography, the “show” just isn’t a “show” like it used to be. Its just dancers. Male and Female dancers. I do have to give them credit last night, as one of the laminated glass sections of the stage shattered while they were dancing, but they continued on over another section of the stage without any issues or interruptions.

The show started around 1:30, however we got to the club about an hour and a half early to ensure 3 seats in a row at the central bar around the base of the stage. Getting your own table is not only pricy, but in my opinion a complete waste at this club especially, as once the club fills up your table becomes “overflowed” with non-paying patrons pushing their way through. Everyone stands up as well, so actually “sitting” on your couch at the table is great only if you intend on getting so drunk you cannot stand anyways. You won’t see any dancers. So get their early and look for me at the bar. It’s the best of both worlds. Expect to pay around 10 Ron for a beer, and double that for a cocktail. Prices here seem to have jumped a bit, which is something I can say is NOT commonplace across the club scene as a whole. All in all, Bellagio is worth the visit, you certainly will not regret the experience.

Clubul este situat in soseaua Stefan cel Mare Nr.31 [ intersectie cu Lizeanu ] Puteti cere informatii sau face rezervari laÂ numarul de telefon: 0722 323 324

A Not So Great Experience…

Bucharest Expat — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 10:53:03 +0000

It was about 10-ish last night when five of us decided to head down to Bordello’s, a “confused theme” bar that is somehow an Irish-Pub-meets-lingerie-display-resturaunt. We eventually found some seats at the bar, after many of the patrons seated in the “restaruant” area ceased to use the adjacent bar chairs as their own personal coatracks. We were able to cary on an audible conversation, which is something good to be said, however our conversation was accompanied by poor excuses for cocktails, and Guinness that was poured with the world’s speed record in mind. Food? Yeah they have it. Can you get it? Sure, no problem, just wait a little over an hour and your handful of cold, stale nachos will arrive, with a side dish in tow of cheese sauce not large enough for a mouses’ meal. So all in all, after these little nuisances and the 15 minutes it took to receive the “corrected” invoice for our tab, we were anxious to get the show on the road and find some place else to “enjoy”.

Meeting Romanian Women

Bucharest Expat — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 06:33:41 +0000

Part I of II. Let’s see if I can get some information out on this subject without pinging every porn site in existence. This is clearly a popular topic and highly searched keyword in Bucharest, so it’s time for some real insight and truth.

Foreigners can and do meet beautiful, intelligent, and “perfect” Romanian women and ultimately have a great relationship or even get married. I did. My wife of two years this November is Romanian, and I met her in Bucharest. There is no “secret” to it, but after talking with her and a lot of other people, I know what you should NOT try to do…

Unless you have been living under a rock, or have yet to arrive in Bucharest for the first time, there are advertisement for “massages” almost everywhere. From hotels, to restaurants, to signs on the street, to business cards in taxis, you can’t really go anywhere without spotting some type of sexual promotion. I know of married people, single people, you name it, that come to Bucharest specifically for the gorgeous women. It is also one of the main reasons certain cultures have created prosperous, unrelated business in Bucharest!

If you have any inclination or thoughts of this type of “venturing”, the only thing you need to do is walk down the street, or go to a club at night. I am not talking about a strip club, just your average dance club, and you’ll get a taste of what is offered in Bucharest as far as the women go.

I won’t go into the art of “picking up” a Romanian girl, for that you can go to www.TipsFromAHotGirl.com this site is currently being assembled … so stop back soon…

What I will do is give you a brief summary of what to expect when going around Bucharest looking for “this”.

Nightclubs can be found beneath neon signage, the bottom floors or set-back corners of certain hotels (i.e. the downstairs of the Phoenicia) or down certain side streets. I can’t really describe what makes a nightclub (stripclub) vs a lounge stand out, but you’ll know it when you see it. Any difficulties you can pretty much ask any taxi driver, or pick up any promotional flyer in almost every hotel. When you’re in a nightclub, of course you’ll be approached by every single women as if you’re solid gold (does this make them gold-diggers)? Expect your wallet to lose about 1 kilo in weight every 30 seconds. You’ll be paying dozens of euros for cocktails and bottles of liquor at price increments that supposedly represent different “levels” of intimacy that can be obtained. Bottom line here, is stay away unless you have deep pockets, and zero expectations of “meeting that special someone”.

Coffee Bars Lounges and Clubs are full of women. Unless you are there with a person who can make introductions, you’re pretty much facing an uphill battle. Romanian woman have become virtually impervious to any innuendos. The whistling, hissing, and cheesy pick-up lines of many locals and foreigners go in one ear and out the other. Check back with us soon as we will be hosting some incredible events that solve quite a bit of the issues you may face here.

Look for Part II of this article shortly
