Bosnian Cuisine

The Bosnian cuisine is one of the world’s most famous due to the delicious melting of flavors, reflecting the distinct influences from the 400 year long Ottoman rule and the sweet, and light wind from the Mediterranean. The hands down best thing you can try in Bosnia is ćevapi, small, oblong-shaped kebabs made from lamb and beef, served in a somun with raw onions and sour cream on the side. For those whose favorite meal of the day is breakfast, you will enjoy homemade burek, a flaky and tender pastry with meat, cheese or spinach filling.
