Flower shop
Here are the Top Five shops in Bucharest regarding popularity or rather level of extension (in my opinion – please leave a comment with your own personal Top Five list or continue mine until the Top Ten):
Mini Market
5. Mom-and-Pop grocery stores
4. Pharmacies
3. Flower shops
2. Amanet (pawnshop)
And the winner is:
1. Fornetti
- our all beloved puff pastry producer.
I argue that what is the bocadillo for Spain, the sandwich for GB, the Wurstsemmel for Austria and the onigiri for Japan, that’s puff pastry and strudel for Romania! The little, cheap, very tasty and highly caloric snack for in between the meals.
Big Three: Fornetti, Amanet, Pharmacy
You can find all these different kinds of shops in amazing quantities all over the city.
The last picture is supposed to underline the above said.

That’s right, you will find flower shops on almost every bigger street corner. Or even 3, 4 or 5 of them…
The private persons selling their own garden flowers not even included
Hm, interesting ranking..
What I never really understood is the popularity and quantity of the flower-shops in town, given the fact that they are quite expensive in general..
Kaufland or Carrefour coul dbe mentioned too- as it is getting crowded there even on Sunday mornings now, which used to be the perfect time for doing groceries..
