Mostar Food

After I got into Mostar and had checked into my accommodation I headed out to have lunch. I knew what I wanted to have from my research and my bucket list meals. Found the place, not sure how you write it but it looks like St%, now I look online it seems it is Sto Posto (which translated is 100 Percent). I had the salami and cheese (Kajmak, which is like a cream cheese). As you can see from the menu below you can get sweet ones as well.

So delicious

Seeing as I had a late lunch, at about 3pm, I didn't need something massive for dinner. I wanted to try Dolma from a restaurant called Divan. Dolma is small bell peppers that are stuffed with a mince/rice mixture served with mash and gravy. It was very nice, not too big but that was what I knew and perfect amount for dinner.

After my day trip I had decided on another restaurant called Hindin Han that was recommended by a few people (tour guide & hotel staff). Another decision then was what to have. I stepped out side my normal meals comfort zone and had Trout steaks with swiss chard and potato. You could get the traditional fish on a plate one but that comes as is, so has small bones, I wasn't keen to deal with that.

The last day I had my coffee in the morning, you can read that in the Mostar general post. I put it there as it's not food technically. I then looked for a place for lunch I had read about Tima Irma. I had the Pljeskavica which was a minced beef patty with traditional bread, sauce and onions. Crikey ... I didn't expect it to be as massive as it was. I struggled to finish everything on my plate.

Lunch (strange, not sure what the story is with the pretzel sticks)

After lunch I was thoroughly stuffed, but I still wanted to have something nice for dinner, again maybe something maybe not as big.

Something I had read about and wanted to try was Mućkalica, which is one of the most popular dishes in Serbian cuisine (not that I was in Serbia mind you). From online: It is a kind of stew, made from leftover barbecue meat baked in a vegetable sauce. I had 2 restaurant options I had checked out, was very pleased with the choice and what I had.

Enjoying my beer, LOL at the sign behind me.
A meal without wine is called breakfast

Wow was my Mućkalica tasty, not massive but it was just perfect size. Very filling and very yummy, just what I needed to end off my Mostar stay.

Breakfast at my accommodation was nice.
