Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Sarajevo sits at the crossroads of Central Europe and the Ottoman world, and its food shows it. The Baščaršija, the old Ottoman bazaar quarter, remains the heartbeat of the city. Ćevapčići here are not fast food — they are a ritual, eaten with somun bread, kajmak, and raw onion, in tiny restaurants that have been doing the same thing for generations.
