SoupeR - Cluj-Napoca

I understand that this is a controversial subject... Romanians vs Hungarians, especially in Transylvania, but if I started talking to you in Romanian it means that this is the language that I know and can understand. The girl there knew Romanian perfectly, she was talking in Hungarian with the other person in the kitchen and with the clients who started talking Hungarian, but I couldn't understand why did she ask me things in Hungarian? I think it was rude. I obviously did not understand what she was asking because I didn't even realize that she was talking to us because I didn't expect her to talk in another language. I understand the nationalism, but don't do this. It is simply rude and I didn't feel welcomed. She wasn't friendly or polite. As for the food, I am a vegetarian so I had enough options. We ordered spinach and feta cream soup and tomato cream soup. They were so-so. Not the best, but not the worst either. I didn't really enjoy the spinach and feta one. I was expecting it to have more of a taste of cheese and cream than spinach. I thing I would have preferred it a bit thicker. The tomato one was better, tasted and smelled a lot of garlic, it also had balsamic vinegar which felt a bit acid in my stomach (as I am a bit sensitive), but it was tasty.

Very nice place to eat a fresh soup. Friendly stuff, very good location. Good value for money. Fast service.

There were only two soups available with about 1.5 hours before closing. I chose some Algerian chicken soup, not the best or the worse I've had. It tasted like packet soup spiced afterwards to be honest.

You can buy here the best "fast food" in Cluj. Interesting, special soups, tasty sandwiches and salads at a good price.

I was always on the run in Cluj during TIFF festival so in between two movies, this place was a great choice for me not to starve. I had soups but also salads and they were always very good and healthy.
