Introduction Geographically and especially Montenegro is a relatively small country, with a total area of 13,812 km, with the coastal part of the Adriatic Sea of 293,5 km and populationof676,872.MontenegrobelongstothecountriesoftheMediterraneanbasin, thecountriesoftheWestern,butalsothecountriesoftheBalkanPeninsula. Thecountryisnotrichinmineralresources,sothebasisofeconomicdevelopmentof the country are two industries tourism and agriculture. Today, in Montenegro, significant investments are made in the development of these two industries and because of the complementarity the emphasis is especially put on the production of organicfoodproductsandtheirplacementintourism,thesocalled“invisibleexport” through the hospitality and tourism sector.The tourism industry is gaining increasing importance in the overall economy of Montenegro, and in 2017, 1,044,510 tourist arrivals were registered in individual accommodation, 3.9% more than in 2016. The numberofovernightstaysamountedto8,062,946,anditwashigherby4.3%thanlast year,ofwhich99.4%wereovernightstaysbyforeigntourists,and0.6%weredomestic tourists.Themostovernightstaysin2017werebytouristsfromRussia(30.3%),Serbia (29.7%),BosniaandHerzegovina(11.8%),Ukraine(4.4%),Belarus(2.5%)),Kosovo (2.4%), Germany (2.2%) and (1.7%). Tourists from other countries realized overnight stays of only 15% (Statistical Office of Montenegro, 2017).The biggest markets for Montenegro are the countries: Russia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Germany,but this ratio isslowly changing and in 2018the number of tourists from ,Scandinaviancountriesincreasedwiththereturnofoldtouroperators. Thedefinitionoftourism,whichisconsideredtheoldest,wasderivedin1942by SwisstourismexpertsW.HunzikerandK.Krapf,andbythatdefinitiontourismis“a setofrelationshipsandphenomenathatresultfromthetravelandstayofavisitortoa placeifthatresidenceisnottheirpermanentresidenceandifnoeconomicactivityis connected with such residence” (Čavlek, 2011, p.29).This definition has been officiallyacceptedworldwide,andthemorerecentdefinitiondeclaredbytheWorld TourismOrganization(UNWTO)is:“Tourismencompassestheactivitiesofpersons travelingandstayinginplacesoutsidetheirusualenvironmentfornomorethanone year, traveling in leisure, for business and other purposes” (http://www. tugberkugurlu.com/archive/definintionoftourismunwtodefinitionoftourismwhat istourism).Tourismhastwocomponentsastaticandadynamiccomponent.“ The dynamiccomponent referstothetraveloftouriststhatmustbeundertakeninorderfor tourism activity to occur at all, while the static component refers to a stay in a destinationthatmustensurethattheneedsoftouristsaremetandtheexpectedtourist

Tourist trips are created as a resultofsatisfyingtheinternaltouristneedsofeachindividual,andtheseneedsoccur after satisfying the existential needs.“Tourism needs and motives are different. A commonmotivethatinitiatesatouristtripisvacation.Inadditiontotheholiday,there are many other motives that encourage tourists to meet their needs: sports and recreation,huntingandfishing,hiking,sailing,gastronomy,culturalvaluesaswellas newexperiences,goodprices,passivevacation,naturalbeautyandthelike.Amotive isaneedordesirethatisconceptualizedandfunctionswiththeintentionofachieving an appropriate goal ”(Kušen, 2002,p.31).Today, we are witnessing an increasingly active tourist motif of restoring the enjoyment of consuming traditionally prepared food, so gastronomy, gastrotourism and gastrotours are an increasingly important partofthemarketingpromotionofonedestination. ThispaperaimstopresentspecificsofthegastronomicofferofMontenegro,the advantages of valorisation through tourist offer, emphasize the importance of food safetystandardsinthehospitalityindustry. 1.Gastronomy–thematerialbasisofcatering The Montenegrin economy depends on the trend in the catering sector and gastronomy has found a special place here. Catering is a tertiarylevel economic activity,differentfromothereconomicactivities,notonlyinthesubjectofbusiness (providing accommodation, food and beverage service), but in its specific characteristics.Cateringcontainsaspecialtechnological,productionandservicework process,aspecialorganization,aspecialway,contentandformofprovidingcatering services. Catering is characterized by special catering standards as well as categorization of facilities. It differs from other industries in the procurement, productionandprovisionofservicesinaspecialcateringway.Thematerialbasisof eachtourismdevelopmentisthecateringindustryandcateringfacilities.Inaddition to providing accommodation, food and beverage services, this sector also offers touristsanumberofadditionalservices:souvenirsales,salesoftradegoods,cosmetic services,entertainmentandsportsactivities,etc.Cateringasaneconomicactivityofa tertiary character meets the needs of people who mainly derive from traveling and stayingawayfromtheirplaceofresidence.Inthiscontext,itisprimarilythehotel industrythatmeetstheseneedsbyprovidingservices,atsetprices.Asaneconomic activity, the hotel business operates on a commercial basis. This means that the servicesprovidedareofuse,butalsomarketvalue.Themarketvalueofservicesis reflectedinthepricepaidbycustomerstomeettheirneeds(Kosar,2002,p.22). 240 V.Vujačić,S.Pashova,V.Filipović,J.Filipović.GastronomyandFoodSafetyStandardintheFunction andDevelopmentofGastronomicTourismofMontenegro

The most important division according to the basic catering services in the hospitalityindustryis:Hotelbusiness,asanactivitythatintegratesaccommodation andcateringservices;andRestaurantbusiness,asanorganizationalandtechnological independent sector of preparation, production and serving of food, beverages and drinks. Economists anticipate the strong development of tertiary activities, and the hospitality industry with its segments (hotel business, restaurant business, gastronomy) and its various forms is their most obvious example. Accommodation services, prices of drinks and beverages that a traveler and a tourist can get at a facility(hotel,motel,restaurant,andcafe)areovercomelongtimeago(Kovačević, 2001,p.60). Employees in the catering industry in ordertoattract newpotential clients,in additiontostandardservices,designandoffernewservices,thatis,improveexisting services, especially taking into account the general atmosphere, entertainment, animation, active holidays and quality of service. It should be emphasized that the hospitalityindustrycouldnotbefullydevelopedwithouttheinfluenceofgastronomy andviceversa.Gastronomyispartlyanexistentialneed,itisanactivity,aprofession, that is already classified in scientific disciplines, and compared to art, because of rituals related to nutrition, color matching of products, artistic decorations, and enjoymentoffood.InFrankfurtsince1978,PeterKubelkahasbeenteachingculinary artsattheAcademyofFineArts,andDanielSpoeriandthe eatart movementhave introducedculinaryartintothefineartsgroupattheUniversityofCologne(Onfry, 2002,p.78).AfterthattheteachingofculinaryartsattheAcademy,attheUniversity gain popularity in the world. Gastronomy takes place in time and space with the applicationofincreasinglyadvancedmodernfoodtechnologies. Gastronomyisaphenomenonasoldashumanity,andisafrequentsubjectof interest in many scientific disciplines, sociology, psychology, food science, chemistry, biology, medicine, agriculture, etc. The word gastronomy is Greek in origin, it signifies everything related to cooking, cooking skill, but also means gourmet. The ancient peoples had highly developed cooking, especially Persians, Egyptians, Greeks. From Persia in the fifth century BC cooking skills were transferred to Greece, where the oldest cookbook “Opsology” was written by Terpison (Kovačević, 2000). The term gastronomy appeared in France in the early nineteenthcenturyinthetitleofaliteraryworkbyJosephBersch.Heintroducedthe word “gastronomie” into French. The word gastronomy itself appeared in the professionalliteratureonfoodandnutrition,cookingandculinarytechniques,sothe worditselfreceivedcertainfeaturesofaspecialterm,untilitfinallybecamethename ofaparticularbranchknowledge.Today,gastronomybringstogetheralltheoretical 241 Izvestiya 2019•Volume63•№3 and practical knowledge related to human nutrition within one discipline (Portić,2011,p.2).In1765BoulangeropenedthefirstrestaurantinParis(Kovačević, 2000).In1933,thefirstgastronomicacademywasopenedinParis(Ivanović,2010, p.78),andin1937, Laroussegastronomiqu waspublishedinFrance. Gastronomy explores and describes the historical development of food and nutrition,customs,ritualsandtraditionsrelatedtothepreparationandpresentationof food. Today's gastronomy encompasses several areas: Culinary skill, art in food preparation;Confectioneryskillartinthepreparationofdesserts;Bakerypreparation of bread, pastry and other flour products and Butchery culinary processing and preparation of meat for gastronomy . Gastronomy is actually a set of systematic knowledgeaboutfood,abouttypesofdishes,aboutmethodsandtechniquesoffood thermalprocessing,artisticdesignofgastronomicproductsandtheirpresentation.Of particular importance for gastronomy is the presentation of food, which is also perhaps the most important component of gastronomy. It does not matter what the foodwilllooklikewhenweeatit,orhowtheguestswilldecidetotakecertaindishes (Ivanović,2010).Allofthesearereasonswhyspecialattentionshouldbepaidtothe gastronomic offer, gastronomic tours, gastronomic tourism, because definitely the completeimpressionandtheimageofthetouristdestinationofgastronomicoffercan bebetterpaintedandcolored(Čačić,2010). 2.GastronomyandgastronomicofferofMontenegro GastronomyofMontenegroisbasedonthetraditionofsimpleandhealthyfood, and gastronomic culture, especially from the period of King Nikola I Petrović Njegoš,isnotsufficientlytouristvalued.ThissmallMediterraneancountrydoesnot inherit a long gastronomic tradition, but traditional dishes are recognized in the WesternBalkansregionasverytastyandoriginal.Montenegro'seconomyisnotvery developed,andthiscanbeoneoftheadvantagesofdevelopingorganicagriculture and tourism on a natural basis. Geographic location, climatic characteristics, soil quality,qualityofabovegroundwater,domesticassortmentoffruitsandvegetables significantly influence the recognizability of the gastronomic offer of Montenegro. Touristsineachcommunicationespeciallyemphasizetheflavorsofauthenticfood, fruitsandvegetables. Gastronomy,thegastronomictradition,areawindowintothehistoryofanation. Gastro culture is part of the general culture of a nation and is an essential part of promoting the cultural tourism product.Montenegro's history as well as economic conditionswerenotfavorableforthedevelopmentofgastronomicculture.Thestate and name of Montenegro first appeared in historical records at the end of the 15 th 242 V.Vujačić,S.Pashova,V.Filipović,J.Filipović.GastronomyandFoodSafetyStandardintheFunction andDevelopmentofGastronomicTourismofMontenegro century.OldMontenegrowasinitiallylocatedintothehillyandinaccessiblepartof the Mediterranean. were mainly engaged in cattle breeding and much lessfarming,andtheywereverypoor.Itisinterestingtonotehowimportantbread wasintheoldMontenegrothatitwasthesubjectoftheoath(Spasojević,2001,p.9). The basic foodstuff were bread, meat (goats and beef), milk, dairy products and vegetables. Hospitality was very important for Montenegrins, both then and today. Hospitalityhasalmostremainedasanctity,andtodayitisreflectedinthesimplicity and cordiality of the people, in the offer of food, dried meat, brandy and cheese (Spasojević,2001). The modest living conditions of the Old Montenegrins, the economic development of the new Montenegro did not give the opportunity to develop spectaculargastronomy.Montenegringastronomyissimple,butaboveallverytasty. NationalgastronomygeographicallyfollowstheregionalgeographyofMontenegro, soinspatiallysmallMontenegrowehavethreeverydifferentiatedregionalcuisines: Mediterraneancoastal cuisine; Lake cuisine cuisine of the central area of Montenegro and the shores of Lake Skadar; and Mountain cuisine of the northern regionofMontenegro. The most original and recognizable gastronomy of Montenegro is Mountain cuisine. It is at the same time the most rustic, simplest, especially valued for food withhighenergydensityandstrongtaste.Thebasisofthiscuisineiscream,cheese, potatoes and smoked ham. This regional cuisine is known for „sloppy kachamak“, dumpligs, and Kolašin's pastry cheese, Njegus prosciutto, Njegus steak, as well as special meat baked in clay pot amongst live coals. An old recipe is well known for Smoothie or Beaten cream (Kachamak) with wooden kachamara (culinarytoolsitlookslikeasmallbaseballbat),potatoes,cornmeal,creamandpuff cheese,havetobebeaten365times,andthenthedishwillgettherighttaste,andsoit gotitsname“Beatencream“.Today,MountainCuisineispartofthepilotprogramof thefirstgastronomictoursinthenorthernpartofMontenegro,aimedatimprovingthe local tourist offer of this part of the country, creating new jobs, involving more womeninthedevelopmentofruraltourismthroughthepreparationandofferingof traditional dishes and an incentive for young generations to stay in this region of Montenegro. In the tourist offer of the mountainous part of Montenegro, they are especially proud of the rustic gastronomic offer that is served in the catering restaurants of the socalled „Savardak“, which depicts the architecture of the mountainouspartofMontenegro. The central part of Montenegro, the Skadar Lake basin, is known for the undisturbed naturalbeauty of thelake, theinevitableboat trips around the lake, as 243 Izvestiya 2019•Volume63•№3 wellasthegastronomicofferofthisregion.TheregionalcuisineofSkadarLakeis characterizedbyindigenouswildfish“carp“,aswellasthenationaldish“Carponrice withdriedplums“.Thiscuisine,inadditiontothefriedandsmokedcarp,isknown forfisheel,whichonitswayfromtheseapassesthroughSkadarLake.TheSkadar LakeBasinareaisknownforsmallindividualwineriesandtheproductionofhigh qualityredwine.PlantageWineVranac,a2013reservewonthebiggoldmedalthis yearatDecanterDWWA'smostprestigiouscompetitioninLondon.

The commondenominatorofthegastronomicofferofMontenegroisqualityandhealthy food,whichisproducedaccordingtocurrentstandardsofthequalityandsafetyof foodproducts.Italyisknownforitsgastronomicproductofpizza,Spainforquality wines and prosciutto, France for wines and 365 types of cheese, all of these are positiveexamplesofthetouristvalorisationofthegastronomicofferofadestination thatMontenegroshouldpursue. 3.FoodqualityandsafetystandardsinMontenegro Contemporary tourists are very concerned with the issue of food safety and quality,sotheneedforfoodsafetyintheentireproductionchain,“ fromthefieldto the table “ has emerged as imperative. The new concept of Food Safety implies a comprehensiveanddynamicpolicydrivenpolicyaimedatprotectingthehealthand interestsofconsumersandensuringthefreemovementofgoodsintheglobalmarket (Krešić,2011,p.223).Foodsafetyis,bydefinition,anassurancetotheconsumerthat foodwillnotactharmfulandunsafewhenpreparedorconsumedinaccordancewith its use (Codex Alimentarius Commission,2003). Codex Alimentarius is an internationalbodyestablishedbyFAO(Foodandagricultureorganization)andWHO 244 V.Vujačić,S.Pashova,V.Filipović,J.Filipović.GastronomyandFoodSafetyStandardintheFunction andDevelopmentofGastronomicTourismofMontenegro

(World health organization) with the aim of implementing programs and standardizing food. Codex Alimentarius is in factacollection of internationalfood standards,adoptedbythecommissionandpresentedinauniformmanner.TheCodex Alimentarius (Lat. Proceedings of the Food Law) provides regulations on food hygiene,microbiologicalsafety,additives,pesticideresidues,contaminants,labeling, presentation, methods of analysis and food sampling.In the European Union, since 2006, a common regulation on foodstuffs has been implemented. The Hygiene Package and the basis of this package is the European Food Law (EC 178/202), whichwasestablishedin2002.TheMontenegrinFoodSafetyLawwasfirstputin place in 2007 and extended in 2015. It was enacted in accordance with European Union legislation, although a similar Food Security Law existed in the former commonstateofYugoslavia,sincefoodsafetywaspreviouslytakenintoaccount. The European Union has a comprehensive food safety strategy, which also includes security systems. It covers not only food safety but also animal health, animal welfare and plant health. The strategy ensures that food can be traced as it movesfromfarmtotable,evenifitmeanscrossingEUinternal/externalbordersso thattradeisnotheldbackandconsumershaveavarietyofsafefoodproducts.High standards apply to EUproduced foods and imported foods. The recognized and effectively operating systems for ensuring food safety and consumer safety are: HazardAnalysisandCriticalControlPoints(HACCP);FoodSafetyStandard(ISO 22000); the Quality Management Standard (ISO 9001: 2015); Good Agricultural Practice Standard (GAP Good Agricultural Practice); System for the authorization and sale of genetically modified organisms; the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed(RASFF);EuropeanUnionNotificationSystemforPlantHealthInterceptions (EUROPHYT); The International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) (Pashova,2015). The HACCP standard is a steady, preventive approach to food safety management,basedonapprovedprinciplesthatseektoidentifyhazardsthatarelikely to occur at one of the stages in the supply chain of raw materials, production, transportation, storage, preparation and serving of foods and consumption risks. HACCPpresentscontrolsthatpreventhazards,isverylogicalandcoversallstagesof foodproductionfromthefieldtotheconsumer,includingallintermediateprocesses anddistribution(MartioreandWallace,2010,p.10). Foodrelated health hazards can be biological, chemical and physical. Biohazards may represent the greatest risk in hospitality facilities (Cabello, 2006).First of all, we refer to bacteremia ( Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp., Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium perfringens, Bacillus cereus ), parasites and 245 Izvestiya 2019•Volume63•№3 viruses(HepatitisAandHepatitisE)(PeceljGec,2010;DibnerandRichards,2005; http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs194/en/). Foodsafetyisbasedongoodhygienepractices,goodmanufacturingpractices, sanitaryandoperationalstandards.Alltheseareprerequisitesfortheintroductionof theHACCPstandardinthehospitalityfacility.Cateringfacilitiesforthesaleoffood, guestserviceandthesaleofbeveragesareofgreatepidemiologicalimportancesince thedistributionofdefectivefoodorcontaminationoffoodduringstorageispossible (Jevtić,2013),sotheFoodSafetyStandard(ISO22000)andtheQualityManagement Standard(ISO9001:2015)areofparticularimportancetothehospitalityindustry. The HACCP standard is part of ISO 22000. This standard is based on seven principles: risk analysis, determination of control points, establishment of critical limits, establishment of monitoring systems, establishment of corrective measures, establishment of verification procedures and establishment of HACCP System documentation (Vujačić, 2011; Pawar and Achail, 2013).The HACCP principles introducedarenotasufficientconditiontocopewiththehealthrisksofconsumers, especially those that are raw materials for the production of culinary specialties offered to the tourist or those that are used in the catering industry. Therefore, additional approaches are needed to securing and managing the risks of transport, storageandculinaryprocessingoffood(Stoyanova,2018). Inthecateringindustry,theprocurementofgrocerieswiththeconfirmationof healthfoodsafetyforthegroceriespurchasedisaparticularproblem.Thisproblemis especiallyrelevantwhenitcomestotheprocurementofagriculturalproducts,butitis being addressed by the introduction of the Good Agricultural Practice Standard (GAP Good Agricultural Practice).

Today, this country is one of the most desirable tourist destinationsintheMediterranean.Thecountryisrichinnaturalresources,oneday you can swim in the sea, hiking, sail on the lake, raft the canyon, visit cultural resources, but also enjoy top quality wines and authentic dishes.Montenegrin gastronomy is specific for the renationalization of national cuisines, which are in completeharmonywiththegeographicalreliefofthecountry.Itisknownfororiginal flavors of high energy food of Mountain cuisine, original dishes of Skadar Lake cuisine,aswellasMediterraneanfoodofCoastalcuisine.Forthegastronomicoffer, placementofagriculturalproductsthroughthecateringoffer,theHACCPstandardis ofparticularimportancebecauseitdeterminesthesupplyoffoodandfoodtotourists as safe and healthy.

The common denominator of the gastronomic offer of Montenegroisqualityandhealthsafefood,whichisproducedaccordingtocurrent standards on the quality and safety of food products. Italy, Spain and France are known for their tipical gastronomic product of pizza, Spain for quality wines and prosciutto, France for wines and 365 types of cheese, all of these are positive examples of the tourist valorisation of the gastronomic offer of a destination that Montenegroshouldpursue.
