Choose 1-2 Meze/Starters Dobro Dojde Dobro Dojde / Welcome Macedonian Cuisine Explained The Authentic Macedonian Dining experience is all about sharing, so our dishes are placed at the center of the table. Meze and a welcome drink We usually start with a Rakia, accompanied by light vegetarian dishes (tapas style), to get the appetite started, along with a spread (Meze) of salad, cured meats, cheeses and dips. Mains + Sides Our Mains are served on a dish on their own, without a Side. Choose your own Side to accompany your main, or ask one of our wait staff for a suggestion. Seasonal produce and Macedonian wines inspire the menu on offer. Many of our dishes are baked and served in handmade clay pottery imported from Macedonia. There is ample food, bottomless glasses and music from the motherland. The evening starts with a toast "Nazdravije" ("Cheers"), in Macedonian meaning; "to your health" Conversations flow and time stands still...

    FREE TRADITIONAL BULGARIAN COOKING PDF Silvia Vangelova Zheleva | 78 pages | 22 Dec 2015 | Createspace Independent Publishing Platform | 9781519718792 | English | United States Bulgarian Food: 18 Traditional & Tasty Dishes • A Little Nomad BulgariaWhere to Eat. If Bulgaria has a national dish, it is certainly shopska salad, the queen of all Bulgarian food. This Bulgarian dish is simple and best eaten in the height of summer, when tomatoes are at their very best. It is somewhat similar to a Greek salad but the ingredients and preparation are slightly different. A true shopska salad is made of roughly chopped fresh summer tomatoes and cucumbers, plus sweet green peppers and red or green onions with a truckload of finely grated sirene cheese a local Bulgarian feta and some parsley on top. This coats each bite of salad with delicious, salty cheese — just how it should be. Fun fact: the salad is the same colors of the Bulgarian flag! Funner fact: It is often served with a shot of rakia at the beginning of a meal, which is how I think all future salads should be consumed, tbh. Banitsa is a traditional breakfast pastry or anytime snack. It is similar to borek which is found in other Balkan countries but the filling is a little different and so is the shape of Traditional Bulgarian Cooking pastry. Made of a phyllo dough brushed with butter, inside it houses a blend of Bulgarian dairy deliciousness. Local Traditional Bulgarian Cooking, sirene cheese, and eggs are all mixed together and baked in their phyllo house, rolled into a snail-like coil which is then served in slices.

  • Bai Ganyo Balkanistica
    BAI GANYO’S REVENGE 75 Bai Ganyo’s Revenge The Persistence of Turkisms in Modern Bulgarian0 Catherine Rudin Wayne State College In translating Bai Ganyo (Friedman 2010), a crucial challenge was getting the language right: capturing the nuances of the different styles of language used by the narrators and characters, representing different social classes, the nineteenth century idioms and cultural references, and especially the colorful language of the (anti)hero, Bai Ganyo Balkanski himself. One of the most characteristic features of Bai Ganyo's speech, and one which caused both grief and delight to us, his translators, is his use of Turkish vocabulary. At the time when Konstantinov (known universally to Bulgarians as “Aleko”) was writing, Turkish borrowings were deeply entrenched in the Bulgarian language, as in all of the other Balkan languages, and carried a variety of connotations and a distinctive flavor. The impact of a Turkish word or phrase in Aleko’s work could be negative or positive, but generally emphasized the perceived “Eastern,” Balkan side of Bulgaria and the Bulgarian people; simultaneously more backward or primitive and more full of vitality, warmth, and personality than the “European” norm. In our individual chapter translations and in group sessions aimed at making the work read smoothly as a whole, we wrestled repeatedly with how best to convey this special flavor in English. Perhaps surprisingly, given that they were already felt as a link to the Ottoman past more than a century ago, Turkisms are still used in nearly identical ways in 21st-century journalistic prose, conveying sometimes positive, sometimes negative, but seldom neutral connotations.

  • 30 SEPT 6 OCT 2017, OHRID, MACEDONIA the Republic of Macedonia Is a Small Country Situated in the Southern Part of the Balkan Peninsula
    for 30 SEPT 6 OCT 2017, OHRID, MACEDONIA The Republic of Macedonia is a small country situated in the southern part of the Balkan Peninsula. It borders Serbia and Kosovo to the north, Albania to the west, Greece to the south, and Bulgaria to the east. It is a natural bridge between East and West, North and South. Macedonia abounds in natural beauty. Many have named it “the pearl of the Balkan”. The numerous mountains, forests, rivers and lakes present a great tourist attraction. The cultural map is exceptionally rich and varied. Valuable archaeological sites, large number of churches and monasteries with their icons, frescoes and woodcarvings, testify the cultural heritage.
