Musik 2015 - Årets bästa album

Tre fantastiska skivor släpptes i år. Disclosures uppföljare var inte lika klockren som deras mästerverk till debut, men ändå riktigt bra. Disasterpiece gjorde kanske tidernas bästa soundtrack till årets bästa skräckfilm - och Ash överraskade positivt med sin retrorökare Kablammo! Övriga plattor låter jag vara orankade.

1. Disclosure - Caracal
2. Disasterpiece - It follows (Original motion picture soundtrack)
3. Ash - Kablammo!

josé gonzalez - vestiges & claws
active child - mercy
sufjan stevens - carrie & lowell
bilal - in another life

Musik 2015 - Alla de bästa låtarna

Fick ihop en lista med exakt 100 låtar i år. Är inte riktigt nöjd - alldeles för få nya artister. Jag har blivit så jävla kräsen - och förmodligen gammal. Men men - det finns en del guldkorn så här är den!

Taxi och tunnelbana

Du kan antigen gå, cykla, åka buss, spårvagn, trådbuss eller tunnelbana när du ska ta dig runt i Bukarest. Då tar du dig runt i staden på ett säkert och eektivt sätt. Biljetter till bussar, spårvagnar och trådbussar kan köpas i alla RATB-kiosker. Stämpla din biljett i maskinen för att undvika böter. Allmänna transporter kan du åka med mellan klockan 05.00 till 23.59.

Bukarests tunnelbana har fyra linjer och 45 stationer. Tågen går var 4-7:e minut, var 15-20:e minut under lågtrak, mellan 05.30 till 23.00. Sitt längst fram i tåget så undviker du att missa stationsskyltarna som inte är helt tydliga. Tunnelbanan är bra för att resa längre sträckor. Biljetter kan användas på alla typer av transport förutom expressbussarna. Internet: www.transporturban.ro

Taxi Kontrollera alltid att din taxi har en taxameter så undviker du att betala onödigt mycket. Med en taxi med taxameter får du en bekväm och prisvärd taxiresa. Du kan stoppa en på gatan.

Piata Romana-guide

Våra hoods

http://www.likealocalguide.com/bucharest/neighbourhood/piata-romana-neighborhood/

Nationalöl typ: Ursus
Andra kända märken: Ciuc, Timisoreana, Bergenbier

Priserna ska ligga runt 7-8 lei, 10-12 som mest på trendiga ställen.
1 lei är i nuläget 2,40 SEK.

"La halba" = fatöl
"La sticla" = flasköl

Inhemsk sprit: tuica (plommon), rachiu, palinca. Mycket hög alkoholhalt.

Fortfarande vanligast att man beställer från sitt bord. Man får sitta och vänta till någon kommer. Går man till baren kan man bli tillsagd att sätta sig vid sitt bord och vänta.

INTRESSANTA PUBAR/BARER:

Barbero - Str. Lipscani 38

A Lipscani bar that we liked the moment we first walked in. The whole place is brightly tiled and done in the style of an old barber's shop (as the name might suggest). We love the red lamps hanging down over the (long) bar, designed to look like old hair dryers. Good music, usually provided by a DJ, and well priced drinks.

Biutiful - Str. Gabroveni 6-8

When you walk in, you will see where the name comes from: it is indeedbiutiful, an enormous industrial-chic space with a little added glamour (check out the lights and the comfy sofas), creating a rather special atmosphere rather like an upmarket, contemporary central London bar and grill. The food is more than decent - salads, tapas and burgers - with the beef and horseradish sandwich a confirmed winner; The fish and chips wasn't bad either. A must visit for either drinks or food, preferably both. Note that they only take reservations up to 19:00, after that it's first come first served.

Energiea - Str. Brezoianu 4

We like this place a lot: the high ceilings and big windows make it a good choice day and night, the original (we think?) tiled floor looks great and there are a number of different rooms, not all of which carry the industrial-chic look of the main bar, good for get togethers with larger groups. Best of all though we like the raised interior balcony, which is top cocktail-sipping territory. Most nights you will need a reservation.

Happy Pub - Str. Caderea Bastiliei 36

What could be termed as a good, solid, no frills pub that eschews clutter and trendy crap and concentrates on the beer, the cocktails and treating its customers well. There's a regular crowd of locals and foreigners, and it's the kind of place where you never feel too young or too old. Top selection of brews (including several imported British beers and stouts), decent music and bar food. We like it.

La 100 de Beri - Str. Covaci 8

The name (as you might have guessed) means 100 Beers, and that's exactly what they have here: beer, and lots of it, from all over the world. In fact, looking at the menu it would appear that they stock considerably more than 100 beers, and there is more besides: shorts and cocktails for those who don't fancy a beer. Nice long, English-style bar at which you can sit all night and sample as many beers as you can.

La Calderon 80 - Str. J.L. Calderon 80

With its wooden interior, inoffensive music and gangs of young people clustered around big tables, La 80 does much to distinguish itself from a swathe of similar establishments. Reasonable food and prices, and this little place opposite Gradina Icoanei is a nice retreat from more frantic venues elsewhere.

Oktoberfest - Str. Selari 9 -11

What makes this place so special is how very ordinary it is. You will find the crowd more local than foreign - never a bad thing - and ordinary 'out for a drink and a good time' locals at that, not the fitze crowd. The owners try to make something happen every night, whether it's football on the television or impromptu drinking competitions. The house Oktoberfest beer is a bargain at 4 lei a glass. Upstairs is Oktoberfest 2, which has a small terrace with heaters at this time of year.

Re:Public Bierhalle - Str. Selari 14

Downstairs at Re:Public is the Bierhalle, which besides offering decent regular live music serves what is probably the best selection of draught beer in the city. There's an IPA, a Brown Ale and even cider on tap. With big long tables in classic beerhall style there are usually enough seats to keep punters happy, but at the weekend you will do well to reserve: it can get very busy.

Shift - Str. Eremia Grigorescu 17

It’s doubtful that you’ve seen anything like this place in Bucharest before.Shift is a Bohemian restaurant/bar/club of some style. It is, in a word, gorgeous, and has been packed since opening day with the hippest and coolest people in the land. Late at night this is the smartest chill-out venue in the city, and we (and just about everybody else) love it.

Vintage Pub - Str. Smardan 43

Another Smardan drinking den. And it’s not bad. Staff are incredibly hospitable, and the interior décor is pub-ish without overdoing it. The Vintage aspect is provided by the hanging of various antiques on the walls. Cheapish drinks, salads, sandwiches and a big terrace (at the right time of year) attract a young crowd. Hosts loads of events.

White Horse - Str. George Călinescu 4A

The White Horse has been around so long it should probably consider going out to stud. Or should it? On a recent visit we found it to be in surprisingly good shape, and packed with both locals of the ‘ordinary people’ variety, as well as group of rowdy expats. There is still good food in the more formal part upstairs, with bar snacks served down. We have always loved the square bar.
