I read about this restaurant on the Culture Trip website (https://theculturetrip.com/europe/bosnia-herzegovina/articles/sarajevo-s-top-10-cultural-restaurants-bosnian-bites-beyond/) and it seemed like an interesting way to try local dishes with a twist. It was also conveniently located near the market and a supermarket and also near our accommodation.
Sadly it wasn't all happiness and smiles. It took a while to get the waitress (I think she may have been the owner or manager also?) to attend to us on several occasions, to order, to ask for something, to get the bill, to pay the bill.
Also it took 45mins for the entree and then another 30mins for the main. As it turned out they tried to give us the wrong entree and then gave our correct main to another table. Hmmm. How about the food then? The main theme seems to be nettle.
- Traditional doughnuts with nettle & cottage cheese 7 BAM - fried bread was crisp and very good, the sour cream thick not too sour. I did enjoy this dish;
- House Special I (assorted sarma, dolma and meatballs) 12 BAM - onions, peppers and vine leaves all stuffed with soft beef and all tasted the same. Simple very salty;
- Veal medallions served on French toast topped with mushroom sauce 18 BAM - veal overcooked but still ok for tenderness. Good grilled zucchini and aubergine with char bits. Soggy toast as expected under it all.
Unfortunately the bread (or dough mix) was essentially the same for the bread, doughnuts and French toast. It would have been nice to know this to not get the same heavy carbohydrate over and over.
Overall I thought the meal was average. Next time I would try Karuzo, Dveri or Aščinica Hadžibajrić F. Namika (the other 3 places marked on my map that I didn't get to).
