BAlkan taste
One says that “The world seems more beautiful with a pleased stomach”.If we stick on this and eat in Balkan, for sure the beauty will be toneless. The cuisine is heterogeneous,mostly Mediterranean, influenced by many including Italian, Turkish and Middle Eastern
Cuisine cooking. Traditional dishes are based on imaginative variations of several basic ingredients and cooking procedures. They are non-limited in using of all vegetables, Mediterranean herbs such as oregano, mint, basil, rosemary and more in cooking meat and fish, but also chilli pepper and garlic.In high elevation localities, smoked meat and pickled preserves are common (in Njegusi) for example,animal organs are also used in dishes such as intestines and the head among other parts, which are considered a delicacy (Albania).Meat and bread are very commonly found on a Balkan table, but this area is a warm welcome for
the vegetarians as well. All this amount of food is perfectly accompanied with the best wines produced in cellars that runs mostly as familiar business that preserve and passes the tradition in
different generation and also the other specialties of each country like raki or ouso. Balkan has a solution for every taste, that’s why it should be a choice !!!
