Because of its geographical position and diverse history,
Bulgarian cuisine is a mixture of the Slavonic, Greek and Turkish cuisines. We do recommend you try one of these local dishes as
Bulgarian food is absolutely delicious.
• Shopska salad (diced tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and parsley topped with grated white cheese).
• Tarator (a cold soup of chopped cucumber, walnuts and yogurt) perfect on a hot summer's day.
• Bulgarian white cheese baked with eggs and tomatoes is another favorite.
• Kebapche (minced meat rolled into a sausage and grilled)
• Kavarma (individual casseroles of pork or veal, onions and mushrooms)
• Shishkebab, stuffed vine or cabbage leaves, and moussaka.
Yogurt tastes better in
Bulgaria too - its country of origin. Bulgaria is home to some excellent locally produced wines and spirits, and nothing can beat a cold Bulgarian beer while relaxing around the pool or in one of the many friendly
bars and restaurants.
Eating out in Bulgaria is very popular and affordable. It is widely known that food and drink is a lot cheaper than many other
holiday resorts across Europe. Just another example of what great value for money our
holidays to Bulgaria can be.
