Superfood, Sarajevo 09-2018

Superfood isn't very convenient to central Sarajevo. But we had to get to Penny Plus to get some screw-in camping fuel and it was hopefully somewhere much closer than OBI (although since discovered there is a store right in central that now sells it too).

We could have taken a taxi but thought a nice walk in good weather (although hot) would be a pleasant way to see Sarajevo, a park and a local suburb enroute. Superfood is remarkably highly rated (TA #4, Google 4.7, Facebook 4.8) for a place out of the way.

I really wanted some meat. The Gulash with 300g high quality grass-fed beef was my preference. But they said they had no meat. What? That doesn't make sense. Chili con carne? Nope, no meat. Just burgers. Hmm. It didn't makes sense - maybe the beef patties are pre-prepared and they don't have meat chunks for goulash and can't elaborate the patty to chili. Who knows.

Anyway so I ordered the Snake Bite burger (200g beef patty, pico de gallo salsa, dijon mayonnaise, jalapeño peppers, homestyle potato fries) 10 BAM. It was a nice burger, cooked through (sadly) but the patty was still tender and quite thick in the middle. Mustard mayo was smeared on a large soft bun, and the salsa with chopped tomato was fresh.

We also tried the Shakshuka (poached eggs in a spicy tomato sauce with onions, chili & cumin) 7 BAM. This was almost a semi-assembled version, since I'm used to it arriving in a little pan with bread on the side. It had minimal cumin in it and oddly no sauce either.

It was a decent breakfast. I can't say I'd seek it out specifically. Strangely others seemed to be eating a meat looking dish similar to goulash... maybe the meat arrived soon after...
