Ćevabdžinica Petica
Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Petica sits on Bravadžiluk Street in the Baščaršija, a few steps from Željo, and the question of which one makes the better ćevap has been running since before most of its current customers were born. The room is the same: small, loud, plastic chairs, no menu to read. Ten pieces or five, lepinja comes warm, the onion is raw and chopped. Petica's ćevapčići are slightly wider than Željo's, a little denser in texture. Locals have a preference and they hold it with some seriousness. Tourists order from whichever has the shorter queue. Both queues are usually long.
