🍹 New in Sibiu in JULY–AUGUST

A place serving only vegan burgers and air-fried fries is exactly what anyone always on the lookout for healthy alternatives could wish for. NewLeaf Burgers doesn't have a physical location yet, but you can order straight to your home or office via the delivery platforms.

A new café has recently popped up on N. Bălcescu Boulevard, perfect for a pick-me-up stop during your walks through the Historic Centre. It's called Olha Coffee and it's just as it should be – cosy, friendly and with a menu where you can quickly pick exactly what you like.

Casa Grinda is a great place to recommend to tourists asking us for tips on holidays in Sibiu, but it's also a restaurant with a terrace, recently opened on the lovely Turnului Street. The menu is varied enough to please anyone, and the charm of its location adds a lot to the experience you'll have here.

The food court at Promenada has gained a restaurant that's already catching our eye. Giardino is an Italian spot where you'll find all kinds of pasta and salads, plenty of fish, seafood and beef dishes, plus unique desserts you won't come across just anywhere.

Chocolate Delice has opened the doors of its shop at 67 Calea Dumbrăvii, where you can discover a world of artisanal chocolate and pick whatever your heart desires. You can also get hands-on with making and flavouring chocolate at the workshops held here. Worth a visit at the first chance you get!

Still on the #chocolate theme, we're happy to discover another interesting option in Sibiu: Șomartin Chocolate. The workshop is right on the Large Square, and anyone curious about the secrets of the perfect texture can join the workshops held here.

A fun fact: Oana Irina Crângașu, who started the project, has had the chance to make chocolate for Her Royal Highness Princess Sofia and Her Imperial and Royal Highness Archduchess Gabriela of Habsburg. Let's try it too – it's not to be missed!

News of a new restaurant with big plans can only make us happy! Green Gallery is the name of the upcoming spot on N. Bălcescu Boulevard, currently being fitted out, which promises to be more than just a bistro with good food. The experience built around the dishes will add a new dimension to every visit, all the more so as the focus will be on ambience and an events programme that always gives us reasons to come back.

Watching Thai-style rolled ice cream being made is an experience in itself, and you can enjoy it every time you order one at the new Bubi's Ice Rolls in Promenada Mall. Everything is prepared right in front of you, as you watch the ingredients blend into the best dessert.

Master Wrap delivers a quick snack or lunch break to go. Every crispy wrap hides fresh ingredients combined with just the right toppings in perfect proportion. It's already available on all the delivery platforms!

The Kokoon Tea spot on Papiu Ilarian Street invites you to Crazy Bubble, where you can discover new textures and flavours. The drinks here are made with tapioca pearls, popping boba and nata de coco. If you haven't heard of them yet, that's a sign you should pay them a visit and let yourself be surprised.

Mundi Burger has opened on Calea Șurii Mari, on the way out of Sibiu towards Mediaș. It's a handy stop before a long drive or for a quick meal.
