Kurtos Kalacs

Bucharest, Romania

It means "chimney cakes".
These are spirals of pastry wrapped around a wooden form, and cooked over hot coals and sprinkled with sugar, cinnamon or nuts.
The internet here in the hotel is painfully slow, so I may not be posting much over the next few days.

Very interesting. You would think that the pastry would stick to the wood.
Excellent closeup shot.

Yup, it's the slow internet, not the fresh chimney cakes that will keep you off.
I do like the level of exposure on the coals here; the ones at the back in particular have a lovely red, glowing luminance.

Warmth and food. What a great combination and image. OK. I have to ask what is that being cooked? Voted

Looks delicious, and I bet originally from Hungary (especially with that name, but they're very common in Budapest as well).
