Balkan Food Review - Our first impressions trying Bosnian Food in Ljubljana, Slovenia Video Transcript:

It is time for lunch. We are still here in Ljubljana and today we've decided to have Balkan cuisine. We found a restaurant called Sarajevo 84. Apparently it specializes in Bosnian food and have we already mentioned that we're kicking off our trip through the Balkans in about a week's time. Hmmm. Haha.

Now would be a good time to mention it. It is a good way to announce it with Balkan food. I can't say I've ever had Balkan food before. I don't really know what to expect but I've been like glancing over at other people's plates and you know nearby tables and everything looks really good. It looks like it is meat heavy. Lots of bread. We've ordered I think like 5 different dishes and we'll see what arrives because we didn't even know what the names meant.

The wine is here and Sam is having the Rdeče Vino Blatina I believe.

This is the one dish I really wanted to try. It is basically beans and sausages served in a ceramic bowl.Let me find it on the menu first. I believe it is prebranec s sudžukico. Either way it is beans and sausage.

This next one may be called čevapčiči or something similar. Yeah. And check it out. It is basically grilled meat rolls in a flatbread. Alright, time to take a bite of this and I like to eat with my hands.

Moving on to dish number three. We've got ourselves some roasted red peppers and I believe this is called pečena paprika maybe. Let's hope I got that right.

And yeah, it looks like it has got some chunks of garlic there. That looks really good. That is really nicely presented I have to say.

This right here would be the Bosanske Pide which means which is the Bosnian pide. Yes. The Bosnian bread. And we ordered the one with cheese. Oh yeah. And this is very different from the Turkish one we've tried because the Turkish one is shaped more actually it is shaped more like the serving plate. Yeah. Whereas this one is very much round. Yeah. .And these are also wow they're thick.

Dessert is here. We have ordered the tufahija which is an apple and nut dessert. Though right now it is covered in whipped cream.

Time for price point. It came to 23 Euros just slightly over 23 Euros. And that included five food items and two drinks so 7 things in total. I think that was like outstanding value. I would agree. It was really good food & good quality. We're really full so that is a sign of a good meal. We'd recommend coming here for sure.

As like the Bosnian cuisine we tried at Sarajevo 84 this was our very first time to try Slovenian cuisine and we were excited and eager to dig right in. The following list is the food items we tried at the restaurant including the local names from the menu:

1) Slovenian carniolan sausage (kranjska klobasa) with sauerkraut cabbage mashed rooty potatoes
2) Slovenian stuffed pasta (Idrijski žlikrofi) with a lamb ragout (similar to goulash)
3) Slovenian dessert (prekmurska gibanica) a puffed pastry from Prekmurje made with eight different layers including raisins, apples, walnuts, seeds, poppy seeds and cottage cheese

Slovenian Food Review - Trying traditional Slovenian dishes in Ljubljana, Slovenia Travel Video Transcript:

Well hello hello and welcome to another food video. Today we're having lunch here in Ljubljana so we figured we need to show you what Slovenian food is all about. Now I've never had Slovenian food before ever because I don't think it is really popular outside of Europe but um Sam brought us to Allegria. He spotted this place yesterday so we are here. We've ordered our wine. We've got our basket of bread so let's get to it.

Sam and I both got the same red wine. And what is the biggest surprise with this? Yes, the local red. Biggest surprise is now that we've had two restaurant meals here in Ljubljana is that they typically serve the red wine chilled.

The food arrived pretty quickly so let me show you my dish first. I ordered the grilled Slovenian sausage (kranjska klobasa) with sauerkraut or cabbage and this kind of like purple-y potato so let's just dig right in. Look it is like a double sausage actually. It looks big. Let's divide it. Big and juicy.

It is a really nice way to be starting our Slovenian cuisine experience. Yeah, and now we're moving on to what Sam ordered.

Sam is going in for the Idrijski žlikrofi I believe it is called.

Yes. We could totally be butchering it. And inside is basically pork, herbs and onions.

And it comes with a lamb ragout. It looks so good. I'm making sure to get a bit of lamb.

This is just so good. Such hearty food. Yeah? Again not spicy at all though. It is just like kind of that comfort savory food. And I really like the pasta. It is actually quite densely stuffed.

Well dessert has arrived. It sure has. Here before us we have a traditional Slovenian dessert (prekmurska gibanica) whose name I cannot pronounce. But I can tell you the ingredients. It is basically kind of like a puffed pastry like with lots of little crispy layers and inside it has apples, cottage cheese, walnuts and sometimes it can have raisins. It also has poppyseed and it has all been dusted with a little bit of icing sugar.

Another very filling meal here in Ljubljana, Slovenia. I have to say.. And in terms of price point that came to 28 Euros so that included two glasses of red wine, two mains and a dessert to share. It is packed outside and it is packed inside so it is a great restaurant. I'd highly recommend coming here in Ljubljana.

3) Mix Plate Platter - Dolma, Bosnian cookies, stewed meat and rice

Bosnian Food Review - 5 Things to try in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina Travel Video Transcript:

Well hello there! We managed to find a really cool restaurant and we're going to go film there today. The rain hasn't stopped but it is a little bit lighter so we're going to make our way there and yeah show you what Bosnian and Herzegovina food is all about.

I'm very excited to be trying Bosnian coffee. Oh yeah. This is my very 1st time to try it. Apparently it is very similar to Turkish coffee. Super strong. It is supposed to be very strong. The grounds apparently are uh the coffee grounds are still at the very bottom. Yeah, so they're not filtered. They are not filtered out of the water so you have to let them yep settle before you pour yourself a cup.
It is nice and strong.

Also I feel like I should mention where we are eating because we kind of just ran in here with our umbrellas and didn't really show you the outside. It is called Šadrvan and it is on the west side of the river just as soon as you cross the bridge.

The feast has landed on the table. It sure has. And we're going to start with the first dish which is Dolma. Yeah. And if you have a closer look at this it is basically stuffed peppers with minced meat, rice, parsley, onions and it comes with a giant dollop of cream in the middle. A giant dollop.

This is kind of the ultimate mix plate with tonnes of sour cream. Sour cream. So then you have another one dolma stuffed pepper over there. One dolma.

What is really cool over here is you have it looks like some stewed meat. It is so tender I had that last night. And then you have the Bosnian cookies which is not a cookie at all.

So what is in it? I had this last night and it is basically like a beef patty. Right. So it made with ground beef, eggs, garlic, I think onions and like a little bit of breadcrumbs to give it texture along with rice.

Okay dish number 3. This isn't actually a main. This was our side order. Yeah. And we were trying to keep things relatively healthy. Yeah. So we got a grilled vegetable platter. So if you take a closer look we've got some slices of eggplant, zucchini. We have some mushrooms. It looks like another whole pepper.

And now for dessert and we're having Baklava. It is basically kind of like a mille feux pastry. Like a puffed pastry with all of these layers. And in between you've got like these finely chopped nuts. Yeah. With either honey or some kind of sugary syrup.

We just paid the bill. We sure did. What was the damage? So in local currency which is Bosnian Convertible Marka which has like I think 1.6 exchange rate with the US dollar. That came to twenty two US dollars and fifty cents and in Euros that was 19.40.

We'd give it a five out of five. We'll be back again. Tata!

FIRST IMPRESSIONS of MOSTAR | Why you NEED to visit BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA ????????

Hey, everyone! Welcome to our first #Bosnia #travelvlog!

After leaving Croatia, we drove to Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina. Mostar completely took us by surprise! It is a beautiful UNESCO town full of cobblestoned streets, old architecture, and home to the most picturesque bridge we have ever seen, Stari Most.

In this video we show you everything we were able to eat, see, and do with 48 hours in Mostar! On our first day we take a walking tour through the city, watch the locals dive off of the famous bridge, and enjoy a traditional Bosnian meal. The next day we visit the stunning Kravice waterfalls, a Dervish monastery, and hike up to an old abandoned fortress.

If you are planning a trip to the Balkans, be sure not miss out on Mostar!

I am going to show you what a typical Balkan breakfast looks like. I brought two friends of mine, one from Serbia and the other from Bosnia.

We headed to Europa Deli in South Beach. We tried four typical dishes, Cevapi, Gibanica, Sarma and Soska Salad.

Cevapi is minced meat with some spreads. Gibanica is a cheese pie. Sarma is boiled cabbage stuffed with cheese and rice. Soska salad is one of the most traditional salads found in the Balkans.

Europa Deli also has typical chocolates from all the countries in the Balkans. They also have delicious Turkish coffee.

If your in South Beach and yourself craving balkan food, head to Europa Deli!

Mostar Food Review - Eating Bosnian Dishes at Šadrvan restaurant in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina Travel Video Transcript:

We have come back to our favorite restaurant in all of Mostar. We're at Šadrvan. What is this? Like our third, fourth time eating here in a matter of days? It is our third time.

So we've ordered two glasses of red wine. We are having Blatina and we tried this for the first time and it is a nice full body red, dry like just wonderful flavor and aftertaste.

We are starting off with Schnitzel Šadrvanska Story. And what is in it? It has got so much in it that I'm going to read it off of the menu. Haha. I don't want to mess up.

So guys it is steak with turkey and ham, smoked cheese, breaded in a French manner with mushroom sauce, white wine and cream. Oh my. Now if that sounds decadent.

Okay so for my dish I got dolma and I feel like I've probably already shown this before because I've been eating a lot of it almost on a daily basis. We haven't shown it here though. And it does look different. I know we showed one dolma when we filmed here but they have two different kinds. This one is different. This one is dolma baked in cream. So you've got like the little peppers stuffed with rice, stuffed with minced meat. You've got some chopped carrots. It is really good and it comes with cream in the middle.

It is definitely good. It has got I mean the leaf wrapper. It is completely different texture from this but if I had to pick between the two I would go for this one. The pepper.

Well well it is time for dessert. For mine I also ordered a dessert I had on my first night here. I believe it is pronounced tufahija (tufahije). It is a poached apple that I think has been cooked in like sugary water and then the apple is stuffed with nuts. Then it has whipped cream on top.

Sam over here got baklava. Compared to normal baklava in other places they are a bit more generous with the nuts. It is also a bit thicker than normal making it more delicious.

So time to talk about the bill. It came to 46 in local currency which was 27 US dollars or 23 Euros. We ordered five food items. Basically the two appetizers and then the big meat dish and then two desserts and two glasses of wine. Excellent value and the food was fantastic. Just a wonderful way for us to finish off our time here in Mostar. Bye.

Our visit Ljubljana travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including a food guide (Slovene, Balkan and Bosnian), top sightseeing tourist attractions and the city by day including visiting castles, churches, the old town, quirky neighborhoods, museums and along the river. We also cover off-the-beaten-path outdoor activities you won't find in a typical Ljubljana tourism brochure, Ljubljana itinerary or Ljubljana, Slovenia city tour also known as Laibach.

10 Things to do in Ljubljana, Slovenia Travel Guide Video Transcript:

Prešeren Square is a central meeting spot in the heart of the Old Town, so it made sense to start our tour of Ljubljana here. You’ll find the Franciscan Church of the Annunciation, lots of gelato shops, and the baffling bridge we just mentioned.

As for the reasoning behind the Triple Bridge and the famed dragon bridge, which is guarded by four dragons.

Ljubljana’s Central Market is another spot worth checking out.

We needed to sample some Slovenian food so we went to Allegria.
Sam ordered Zlikrofi (zhlee-krofi), a Slovenian dumpling stuffed with potato + lamb goulash along with Slovenian sausage with cabbage & potatoes.

Ljubljana Castle, which sits on Castle Hill overlooking the city. Built as a medieval fortress in the 11th century, Ljubljana Castle has seen many redesigns and renovations. Climb the Outlook Tower for 360 degree views of the city.

There are departures for cruises down the Ljubljanica. We boarded a cruise directly underneath the Love Lock Bridge, which is actually called Mesarski Most. It was our favourite activity in Ljubljana and it was a super relaxed way to watch the city.

Metelkova is home to the best street art.

One place we really enjoyed was Sarajevo 84, a restaurant specializing in Balkan cuisine. The portions massive & everything we ordered was delicious.

We had a feast featuring: grilled meat with pita and onions, baked beans and sausage, roasted peppers, and a flaky pastry stuffed with cheese. It only came to 23 Euros.

Speaking of galleries and museums, a few you’ll find include: the National Gallery, the Museum of Modern Art, and the National Museum of Slovenia.

We finished off at Tivoli, which is the largest park in Ljubljana.

And that’s it for our time in Ljubljana. Our visit was short, tasty, and relaxing, and we’re really glad we made some time to visit this underrated capital.

Now you guys know the drill; if there are any other things to do in Ljubljana that we may have missed in this travel guide, feel free to share your suggestions with fellow travellers below.

Bosnian Cuisine - Trying Traditional Dishes in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina Travel Video Transcript:

It is time for another food video here in Mostar. Yesterday when we went for a walk late at night we spotted this restaurant. it is right by the crooked bridge next to the river. it looked so cool and cozy. They have a fireplace and yeah we were like we need to come back. So we were in the area today just doing some sightseeing and it is right around lunch. We got hungry and we're like yeah let's eat here. So here we are. It is called Konoba Taurus.

The food has arrived at the table and we have this massive platter in front of us and it looks so good. So I'm just going to read off of the menu to let you know everything we got because it has all been served together. Yeah. And wow. Okay, so the first thing we ordered was the Mostarski Sahan which includes stuffed peppers (punjene paprike), stuffed courgettes (punjene tikvice) which I believe is that zucchini is that just a different word for zucchini? And stuffed onions (sogan dolma). And then aside from that we also asked for what else did we get? The Cufte. Kofte. Cufte? Something like that um which are the meatballs and then we also got something called Japrak which are the stuffed vine leaves. And oh man this is just like steaming in front of us can you and the aromas are tantalizing.

as you can probably tell it is time for dessert. We ordered two different ones. Let me tell you what they are.

So the first one I believe is called Hurmasica but I'm kind of whispering it so you know the locals won't hear me and be like haha she can't say it. Um and that is the coconut finger which I believe is this one.

And then the other one is called Smokvara. Smokvara? Okay. Something like that. And this one is the fig dessert. Yeah. So also we've got some tea. Oh yeah, we got chai. It is Sepak. I believe. It looks like a red berry. Yeah.

Never tried that before.

It is time for price point. So in local currency which by the way is called BAM. Bosnian Convertible Marka that came to 36 which is 21.40 US dollars or 18.40 Euros or 16.31 Great British Pounds. Alright look at you covering all of the currencies. Yeah. I thought that was uh a steal of a meal in terms of value. Wonderful. We got a one litre sparkling water which we didn't show you that enormous plate that included three mains. Uh complimentary bread, two desserts and two teas for that price. So yeah. It doesn't get too much better than that and with a setting like this and with a meal that was that filling and that satisfying highly recommend going there for sure.

Our favorite Bosnian Food in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina at Ćevabdžinica Tima Irma travel food video transcript:

Time for another food video here in Mostar. I believe this is our third and we're on a role. We are. We're going to keep going. There are so many great restaurants and so much food to try.

Okay, so today we are eating at Ćevabdžinica Tima-Irma and it is one of the top rated restaurants here in Mostar so I'm pretty excited and they specialize in something Sam has been wanting to have for a while now. The Ćevapi. The ćevapčići. Right here. We've ordered that and then we also ordered a mixed meat platter for one. I have a feeling it is going to be enough meat for the two of us actually.

I got the traditional mixed meat for one with a mixed salad, cheese, sauce, cream cheese, traditional bread and it doesn't list the meats individually but woah ho ho we've got the meat sausage. I believe it is um veal and beef if I read that right. Is that the cevapi?

I believe this is the is this veal or is it tenderloin? I've seen this elsewhere and it kind of looks like a patty.

I should be using the sauces. They came with so many sauces. Haha. We've got mustard and this looks like it could be spicy.

With some cheese.

Everything is so good. That just looks so good. And the grilled vegetables. I have zucchini. I have onions. And I have bread. Look at that. It almost oh no that is chicken. What am I talking about.

I got a beer. So this is called Mostarsko Pivo.

Ćevapi. So these are grilled meat Bosnian sausages. They can be lamb and beef. Yeah, mixture. It is a mixture of lamb and beef. Yeah. And look at that. They've just stuffed this pita. Let's count. Nine of these bad boys in there. Woah. Yeah. Woah. And it comes with some onions, some chopped onions, some of that spicy sauce. It looks wonderful looking pita.

Price point. So that came to 33 in the local currency which was 19 US dollars and we left a tip because we always do and on the way out they gave Sam a little beer to take home and a postcard. They are so sweet. And wasn't that just like a wonderful meal? It was amazing. In every way. So much food, such good quality and I think that maybe one of my new favorite place now in Mostar. Highly recommend you guys go there.

Foreigner tries DELICIOUS Cevapi in Sarajevo! Balkan Food Reaction

Ćevapi or Ćevapčići is a traditional meat sausage from the Balkans. It is of Ottoman origin, and can be found in the area of southeastern Europe which was formerly Yugoslavia.

This delicious street food is made with mixed meats, usually minced lamb, pork and/or beef. It is typically served with some freshly baked bread and white onion, which makes for a delightful combination!

Today I try the famous Cevapi in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina's capital city. I get distracted a few times from other delicious street foods, especially the deserts, but eventually make my way to Ćevabdžinica Željo, a restaurant dedicated to serving some of the finest Cevapi in Sarajevo.
