Piața Sfatului — Tourist Landmark and Live Film Set

The Romanian TV show "Chefi la cuțite" turned Brașov's Council Square into a live cooking stage — a reminder that the historic centre is still very much alive.

Every season, the Romanian cooking show *Chefi la cuțite* brings culinary tension, emotion and spectacle to Romanian television.

Cooking live in the heart of the city

When you walk through Piața Sfatului you never know what you'll come across. On Friday, 23 May 2025, tourists and locals had a tasty surprise: the filming set of *Chefi la cuțite* was set up right there in the square.

A perfect TV backdrop

The three chefs and their teams installed their mobile cooking station in the very heart of the city, under the curious gaze of passers-by. The atmosphere was vibrant — full of tempting smells, laughter and real passion for food.

Brașov has taste, style and spectacle

It was a day that brought gastronomy, television and the spirit of the city together in an authentic, memorable way. A perfect setting for television, but also for real life. The place where bread was once sold and sentences were once handed down is now a modern film set — without losing any of its historic charm.

The blend of old and new creates a rare kind of magic, one that visitors feel straight away. For locals, the arrival of the *Chefi la cuțite* team was proof that Brașov is still relevant, alive and full of energy. For visitors — a good story to take home, perhaps even one with the taste of a dessert filmed live.

If you'd like to explore the same square (minus the TV cameras), our day trips from Brașov all start a few minutes' walk away.
