I would avoid the Romanian this year.....trust me. Unless you like the food at the Garden City Inn. It is not authentic Romanian anything.
There goes my image of all these little gypsy women cooking in some covered wagon out back. Drat!!

FYI, while there are many gypsies living in Romania....Romanians are not gypsies. Just like there are many aboriginals living in Winnipeg, that does not make us all aboriginal. The gypsies (Roma) entered Europe from somewhere in India in the 11th century. They are in no way ethnically the same as Romanians who take their name from the Romans who conquered the Dacians and settled in the newly created Roman province. Coincidentily that is also the reason for Romanian being the only latin language in Eastern Europe. Just a bit of a history lesson for you.

Aren't there two Ukrainian pavillions? If so, you went to the "Spirit of the Ukraine" one. It's the first year they've run it, and I think they did a phenomenal job!
Oh, and the 'comedian' was Nestor Pistor. You are right to use quotation marks around 'comedian'...
