In the heart of Moldova, right in the country's capital, traditions, history, and gastronomy intertwine harmoniously at the 'Wheel of Time,' a restaurant-museum that is part of the Cross-Border Gastronomic Routes, designed for those who want to discover the true essence of our culture.
An Experience Between History and Tradition
Each room of the restaurant takes you to a different era, transporting visitors to a Moldovan village of yesteryear. The rustic decor, authentic collections and warm atmosphere turn the visit into a true journey through time.
From a traditional cellar where wine was stored as in the old days to an impressive collection of Soviet automobiles, the 'Wheel of Time' offers a unique cultural and educational experience.
Each exhibit tells a story about folklore, crafts and key moments in the country's history, giving visitors the chance to better understand the Moldovan identity.
Gastronomy – The Soul of the Experience
The restaurant's menu is inspired by old recipes, carefully preserved through generations and reinterpreted for today's visitors. Among the dishes you can taste are:
Outlaw's Appetizer – a combination of traditional cheeses and sausages;
Moldovan Appetizer – a platter capturing the authentic flavors of local cuisine;
Bean Soup and Moldovan Borscht – classic dishes, essential on traditional tables;
Assorted Marinated and Pickled Vegetables – preserved by authentic methods;
'Wheel of Time' Special and Fried Beans – recipes showing the richness and diversity of Moldovan cuisine.
Every meal at the 'Wheel of Time' thus becomes a true lesson in cultural and culinary history, and visitors leave not only with the authentic taste of Moldova, but also with stories about the people and traditions that have shaped the country.
Why should you visit the 'Wheel of Time'? It's not just a gastronomic destination, but a cultural and educational point. It's the ideal place for tourists, families and groups of friends, who want to combine the pleasure of taste with the discovery of cultural heritage.
