 Stari Most Bridge in Mostar before the war by karenincalifornia Something you are not told in the United States is Bosnia and Herzegovina is extremely well suited for grape growing and wine making. One of my favorite wines was Mostar, which compared very well to California wines. Its label had a picture of the Stari Most bridge in Mostar. When I got back to the United States, I looked all over for this wine, but could not find any bottles. I wonder if this winery is still in business? If so, would someone please ship me a case?

 Lunch in Mostar by karenincalifornia Great glasses, huh? This was the 1980's, what can I say? We all wanted to look like Elton John. But focus on the food on the table, please. The food in Mostar was delicious and exotic, with its heavy Middle Eastern influence. One important culinary tip we learned the hard way after 4 weeks in Yugoslavia was while on the coast, eat fish. While inland, eat meat. Occasionally when we switched things around, our food did not agree with us.

 Turska Kafa - a favorite beverage in BiH by karenincalifornia In Bosnia and Herzegovina, I became addicted to Turska Kafa, or Turkish Coffee. Even better than Starbucks! Turska Kafa is thick, rich, black and loaded with sugar, served in a small cup. I tried to duplicate it when I got back to the United States, but it wasn't the same.

 me in a smaller cafe by bluecamper The espresso in Sarajevo is excellent. It almost tastes alcoholic; it's strong but no bitter aftertaste. Best coffee in my life!! The price was 1 km for coffee (about 50 American cents and 2 km for a pastry.) Really a good deal. For smokers: you can smoke inside; for non smokers: they leave the door open.
Every shop has a pastry cabinet. It took three stops to find baklava--but so worth it. I'm pretty sure one couldn't go wrong in ordering as long as you can stand the sweetness. Sweetness level high.

 The floating restaurant by croisbeauty There are many restaurants floating on the rivers, like this one in Banja Luka which floats on the river of Vrbas.
You might be very pleasantly surrprised with the B&H cuisine. It is a kind of mixture of the Croatian, Serbian and Turkish cuisine. Almost in every restaurant you can enjoy in: - grilled mixed meat - broached lamb and more importantly, the meat is fresh and genuine. The most authentic, and surely the best loco dish is so called "Bosanski lonac", a cooked meat of three different kinds with vegetables.

 Smoke and Beer give me Asian Eyes! by american_tourister Tuzlanski Pilsner is a local beer brewed in Tuzla. It is an average tasting beer but it has a kick to it. It has about double the alcohol content of American beer and comes in a 16 oz. bottle instead of 12 oz. like all the other beers I see here. Same price, more beer. It is a better bargain. It costs about $1.00 at most restaurants. Leave a Comment Theme: Pub/BreweryComparison: least expensive

 A little bottle of heaven! by american_tourister Ozujsko is a Croatian Beer that gets top marks in drinkablity and price. It is smooth and clean. It has a nice finish and all in all is a very good beer. It has something unusual though. It has a pull top that is very old school. I have never seen one of these on a beer before.

Places to eat in BiH - that's a huge subject. Basicly - they are everywhere and they can be very tiny, but serve excellent food. All kinds of them are usually family businesses and haev bunch of permanent customers, so do not be surprised seeing only few menu items - these are dishes usually eaten by owner's friends. Basic categories of places to eat: RESTORAN (Serb: PECTOPAH) - a restaurant. Always with waiters and sophisticating menu. Drinks are expensive. Best stuff to be tried in a restaurant are different meat dishes (in the Republika Srpska I would recommend Karadjordjeva Snjicla) and salads (for instance Sopska Salata, also known as siriluk). Be aware that many salads can be very sour (sour peppers, cabbage, cucumbers etc.) Some very useful words are 'teljatina' - beef, 'Svinjina' - pork, 'jagnjetina' - lamb meet, 'salata' - salad, 'sa rostilja' - grilled, 'punjena' - stuffed with (specialites: punjena paprika). A good meal in the restaurant costs about 12-20 KM per person. Other - very common places are called 'Cevabdzinica'. They serve local version of hamburger - pljeskavica and small cuttelets - cevapcici (or cevapi). They are usually given in a special warmed bread (ljepina) and with onion. A very special thing you can get with it is kajmak - the fat collected from slowly warmed milk (sweet - serbian way, sour - bosnian way). It is delicious! The price of pljeskavica or cevapi is usually between 2 and 5 KM. Local lunch is burek - type of pastry - look for BUREKDZINICA and try many kinds of burek (with meat), sirnica (with cheese), zeljanica (with spinach) or krompirusa (with potatoes). It is often eaten with yoghurt. A good portion is about 2-3 KM. Something for a dessert? Go to SLASTICARNA (cake/cofeee shop). You will find tons of great (not as sweet as they look) cakes. The very special ones are bakalava (sweet, but delicious) and tufahija (apple stuffed with something good). Drinks? Cafes/bars are numerous, but you will not get usually anything more then drinks. I recommend very good fruit (herbal) teas. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

This is real blue collar food at its best! There is nothing fancy but its flavourful and very filling. I recommend trying the meat Burek with the garlic yogurt sauce simply one of the best meals I have had and at 70p ($1) for a portion a real bargain. Cevapici is equally scarfed and at an equally light dip into the wallet. The Samon bread used with Cevapici is brilliant as well. Coffee through out the Balkans is done properly (strong and sweet and smooth). Leave a Comment Theme: LocalAddress: All over just take a gander and compare.

 Looks are not everything by american_tourister Nectar Beer is not that great. It is a Serbian brew but I am not sure exactly where it is brewed. It has a slightly metallic taste and has a lingering aftertaste too. I will stick with Lasko. Leave a Comment Theme: Pub/BreweryComparison: about average
