Eating In Sofia


Food

What is a group of lively tourists with hearty appetites for food and beer supposed to do in Sofia about lunchtime and dinner?

We are talking especially about people, who are willing to spend money, but are always happy to find a bargain. Furthermore they are people, who have limited expectations about the local cuisine, but they will be well surprised. In Sofia – food is cheap and tasty, choice is wide and the portions – generous – easily enough for four hungry men. For less than £5 you choose from a variety of main courses. All food looks good.

There are plenty of restaurants serving different kind of cuisine. Among the traditional Bulgarian dishes, do not forget to try the Tarator – a Bulgarian variation of the Greek Tsatsiki, then by all means – Shopska Salad, Mish-Mash and Kebapche – a traditional Bulgarian barbecue.

In Sofia you get to eat in a friendly atmosphere – pleasant and non-pretentious, with good service and absolutely amazing food. Despite their somewhat limited English, the waiters are kind enough to explain a number of dishes that you may inquire about and the result is almost always the same: you will get stuffed and all that at very civil prices! Bon appétit!
