I didn't try palinca, I had heard it was very strong so avoided it! birds droppings, yuk, don't like the sound of that - I'd not heard that rumour! I tried sarmale, and ate a lot of mamaliga while I was there - usually with some salty cheese in it, which was very nice. I also found a lot of nice cheeses available at the local market. Another thing I had a lot of was different varieties of soup, very good and filling too.
