The Palace of Parliament, second in size only to the Pentagon, was our destination today. Begun in 1984 at a cost of 3.3 BILLION Euros Nicolae Ceauśeau had vast areas of invaluable architectural treasures razed to make for this grandiose pretentious madness of a monument to himself. The 330,000 square meters remains unfinished but is in part occupied the two Houses of Parliament and their supporting bureaucracies.

One of Many Enormous Reception Spaces
Following our 3 hour tour of the Palace we had a 3 hour dinner that was without question the most amazing “molecular” food experience of my life.

What did you eat? Did it steam and gurgle, freeze and smoke?
