• 10 Traditional Montenegrin Dishes You...

10 Traditional Montenegrin Dishes You Need to Try

For such a small country, Montenegro’s traditional cuisine comes in many delicious flavours. It ranges from garlicky seafood on the coast to hearty mountain fare designed to keep hard-working farmers going. Every region has its specialities. Take a gastronomic journey around Montenegro with these 10 traditional Montenegrin dishes.

Njegusi proscuitto.

Njegusi village is the home of Montenegrin prosciutto. Every day tourists and locals alike take the drive up the Serpentine Road with 25 hairpin turns to get their fix of Njegusi prosciutto in Njegusi village. The climate and altitude combine to create the perfect conditions for making prosciutto here. Whole pig hind legs are packed in salt for three weeks, then they’re hung to dry for three more weeks. The final touch is four months of smoking, during which the fire has to be constantly burning and tended to. The prized result is sliced thinly and served with local cheese or cooked with cabbage.

Njeguski Steak

Milovan’s other version is the Karadjordjeva Schnitzel, also known as ‘maiden’s dream’, where the filled schnitzel is rolled, breaded and fried.

All coastal Montenegrins grow up loving buzara. Shellfish, prawns and shrimps are cooked in either a red or white sauce. The red sauce is made with red wine, onions, tomatoes, herbs and spices. The white sauce is considered an art form and is made with white wine. Montenegrins love nothing more than to cook up a huge pot of buzara on a summer night and invite all their friends over.

Ispod saca is the Balkans’ version of a good Sunday roast. Meat, usually veal, lamb or goat, is slow-roasted with potatoes, carrots, onions, maybe a tomato and a pinch of paprika under a metal dome covered with coals. The finger-licking result is fall-off-the-bone tender meat and succulent vegetables. This is a must-try in Montenegro and it’s the perfect end to a day of rafting in the Tara Canyon .

Black Risotto

A coastal specialty, black risotto gets its famous black colour from cuttlefish ink. A really good black risotto also has subtle flavours of white wine, bay, garlic and nutmeg. It’s a must-try while on coastal Montenegro, but watch out, black risotto also turns your teeth black!

Montenegrin Lamb in Milk

Montenegrin lamb in milk is a traditional dish that’s only found in northern Montenegro. The lamb is slowly stewed in milk with potatoes, carrots, fennel, rosemary, garlic, parsley and seasoning. Traditionally, this dish is made in a sac over coals and the meat comes out beautifully tender.

You won’t find western takeaways like McDonald’s in Montenegro . But you will see cevabdzinicas (try saying that three times quickly!) on just about every corner. Cevabdzinicas sell cevapi, small sausages made of pork and beef mince. These delicious morsels of meat are best served with a cold salad of home-grown tomato and cucumber.

Kacamak is a hearty, traditional staple from Montenegro’s mountain regions. It’s made by cooking cornmeal with potatoes and adding kajmak, a type of cream cheese, and serving it with soured milk. This is mountain comfort food at its best!

When in Montenegro, forgo your usual bland toast or cereal. Go to the local bakery and get some burek. Burek is made of filo pastry and filled with cheese, meat, spinach or potato. It comes in spirals, wedges and tubes but the wedges are best. An oily, crunchy layer of pastry gives way to a delicious filling. Add a bottle of plain yogurt and you’ve got the ultimate Balkan breakfast.

Skadar Lake Carp

A 30-minute drive from the coast brings visitors to one of Montenegro’s hidden gems, Skadar Lake. The enormous lake and wetland is a national park and it’s teeming with wildlife. The local speciality on the lake is carp and is served fried, smoked or marinated in oil.

The most delicious local food in Montenegro

This article was first published in November 2019 and was last updated in June 2020.

Montenegro food surprised me . While it may not be a known cuisine outside the country, some of the food in Montenegro was not only delicious but also very unique and fresh.

At the same time, some of the most popular Montenegrin dishes are similar to others found in the Balkans, Greece or even Turkey.

Like with the food in Albania , Mexico and Azerbaijan , Montenegrin cuisine has benefitted from centuries of interaction with neighbouring countries and trade, to bring together some great dishes.

So what you will find in the menus across the country are some familiar names (baklava, ham) and some exclusively local options . Montenegro food will delight and surprise you.

Tip: Make sure to save my travel guide to Montenegro and Kotor before you go. They have a lot of great information in them that I got from my visit and are sure to help you out on your trip. And if you’re driving, you can go on an epic road trip across Europe .

Montenegro food

Montenegro is not a very large country but you can still find differences between the cuisine of the coastal area, on the Adriatic coast, versus what will fill your plate in the mountains which cover 70% of the country.

Fish and seafood is abundant by the coast where you can find the freshest fish caught daily by the many fishermen. Sit at one of the restaurants right by the Montenegro beaches and enjoy simply cooked, grilled seafood with generous amounts of olive oil, parsley and garlic, just like we eat it in Spain.

In the mountains, meat is the name of the game in Montenegro food and, despite the coast never being too far, you will most likely be served pork, lamb or beef.

The animals roam freely in the mountains and the dishes are often cooked for several hours under a metal round cover that is topped with hot coals. The resulting meat is tender, fall-off-the-bone and absolutely delicious.

Both by the sea and in the mountains, Montenegrin meals always include smoked prosciutto ham, from Njeguski, and lots of cheese in several forms. I had both at every single meal and they were good every single time.

Once you’re done reading this article, you can book a food and wine tour of Kotor  here  where you will get to learn about the UNESCO Sites in a 1-hour walking of Old Town and then taste smoked ham and cheese with a glass of local wine. This tour  of Kotor is a bit longer at around 6 hours and passes Cetinje, the old royal capital of Montenegro, and a stop at the 134-year-old restaurant Kod Pera na Bukovicu.

Best food in Montenegro

The best food in Montenegro is simply cooked, made with seasonal ingredients and lots of olive oil . Sounds like a winning formula? It is.

I am listing below some of the best and most common foods you will find on the menus across the country.

You will find others not listed, but this is a pretty exhaustive list which I compiled through my trip, noting down what was local and common from restaurant to restaurant.

Smoked prosciutto

The star of Montenegrin food is always smoked prosciutto ham from Njeguski, a mountain village about half an hour from Kotor via a snaking road.

The Montenegrin version of prosciutto ham is smoked in the mountains of Njeguski because it is said that the air and the location of the village and the places where ham is aired and smoked produce a special flavor that is uniquely delicious.

Njeguski ham is eaten sliced, usually served with some herbs and best accompanied with a selection of cheeses and some olives. Because bread is always served on the table of every Montenegrin restaurant, you can pair the ham with bread, fantastic olive oil and the slices of ham.

As the ham has been smoked it is quite different from the Spanish cold cuts, ham and meats, and also sliced thicker.

Burek is a very common pastry in Montenegro, the rest of the Balkans and Turkey. It is a layered phyllo pastry usually filled with cheese but also with spinach and minced meat.

Burek is typically eaten for breakfast, though it makes for a fabulous anytime snack too, especially late at night, like in the image above where we stopped by a street stall to buy a long piece before heading back to the hotel to guzzle down this Montenegro food.

You can find burek in restaurant menus but you will most likely buy this Montenegrin food at a bakery where several other pastries can also be found.

Ajvar was one of my most favorite foods in Montenegro. It is a red pepper and tomato paste that is made into a spreadable form and served as an appetiser or snack, often together with some olives, slices of toast, bread sticks or bread of any other kind. It’s easy to make and you can make your own following this ajvar recipe from Aida, a local photographer and recipe developer.

Njeguski Steak

This is a dish that reminded me of the French cordon bleu . It is a pork steak that is filled with kaymak cheese and smoked ham and often breaded and fried. So just imagine how indulgent and filling this dish is.

The dish was invented in 1956 by the famous Yugoslavian former president’s private chef Milovan Mića Stojanović and named Karađorđeva steak. Today is is one of Serbia’s most popular dishes and also Montenegro’s.

The steak is usually served with fries, vegetables or potatoes.

Buzara was a dish that I looked out for in almost all menus on the coast, in particular the white buzara.

This Montenegrin dish is made with seafoods, usually prawns but also squid or any other, that is cooked in a sauce . The white buzara version is cooked with white wine while the red uses red wine and tomato.

They are both great but the white buzara is particularly delicious with a light sauce that has not only wine and olive oil but also onion and fennel. It is so good that I practically drank the sauce left on the plate after eating the prawns.

Calamari or squid

Calamari is one of the most common foods in Montenegro and you will find it on every menu in several forms, especially by the coast.

They are most commonly grilled or fried, but can be both a starter or a main, served hot or cold in a salad. No matter how they are, they are always delicious, tender and flavorful.

Octopus salad

Like with calamari and squid, octopus is a very popular seafood in Montenegrin cuisine.

You will also find it varying forms , sometimes grilled (even whole like in my picture below!), other times fried with copious amounts of olive oil, parsley and garlic, even in ceviche, thinly sliced and on its own.

Octopus salad, served with tomatoes, cucumber and lettuce, is a delicious starter that you can find in pretty much any menu in Montenegro.

You will find the octopus to always be tender, and probably caught that morning, this is what makes food in Montenegro so great: how fresh it is.

Grilled fish and seafood

So now you know that grilled seafood is a very popular and delicious Montenegro food but it is not limited to calamari, squid or octopus, you can find all sorts of other seafood , most notably prawns, lobster, crayfish, tuna, shrimps, etc.

You can never go wrong with grilled seafood in Montenegro. We ordered one seafood type or another at every meal we had in Montenegro and it always turned out great. So fresh you can still smell the sea.

Ispod Saca – Lamb cooked in an iron pan

This is a dish more commonly found in the mountains of Montenegro and much less common by the sea.

This is a heavy meat-based dish cooked in an iron pan topped with a hollowed out cover called sac and hot coals.

The meat is cooked slowly until it is so tender it falls off the bone, literally. It is so delicious I salivate just thinking of it now. You definitely cannot miss this Montenegrin dish.

Ispod saca can be made with several types of meat but is most commonly made with lamb , the most deliciously baked potatoes that glisten in the fat of the meat, onions and maybe some tomatoes.

This is a dish that is less commonly found along the coast but which will magically appear on menus the moment you escape to the mountains. Make sure to order some bread to dip it into the gravy, totally finger-licking good.

Cevapi – Kebabs

Like in other countries in the Balkans, Middle East, North Africa and even Asia, kebabs are a popular food, usually pretty affordably, sold in Montenegro .

Kebabs can be made with different types of meat, from chicken to pork, lamb or beef, which is chopped and skewered in between slices of onion, peppers and other vegetables.

Pljeskavica – Burger and sausages

Grilled meats are a Montenegrin specialty you are likely to find across the country. While this may come in the shape of a kebab (like above) or in sausage or chop form, one of the most common ways to eat grilled meat in Montenegro is minced and in burger shape.

This can sometimes be served on its own or with half a pita, and not very commonly in a bun like we are used to seeing in the West.

Collard and boiled potatoes

Not necessarily a dish per se, but boiled collard, which is a type of chard, and potatoes have to be the most common side dish in every meal. You will see them next to any meat dish you order and, contrary to what you may think, they are pretty delicious, so give them a try.

Cheese and cold cuts platters

Did anybody say cheese? Montenegrins love theirs and it comes in many different shapes and forms. More cured or younger, sheep or cow, dry or aged in olive oil .

Cheese in Montenegro is mostly eaten as a starter rather than as a dessert and served with bread, olives, dried fruits , nuts and grapes or figs. It can also be ordered with smoked ham.

Every restaurant will have its own range of cheese available from the several villages in Montenegro.

One of the most commonly found ones is poludimljeni cheese , olive oil aged cheese which is a drier version and is aged in pots filled with olive oil.

Another very popular Montenegrin cheese is the yellow, mountain air cured Njeguski cheese which is left to age in the cool mountain air before being eaten.

Kaćamak is a type of porridge that is eaten across the Balkans and even in Turkey, not just in Montenegro.

It is usually made with with potatoes and other flour, like marize, and is eaten topped with cheese or lard. It is the Montenegrin version of French mashed potatoes and requires quite a lot of strength to beat all the ingredients together to form a smooth mix.

It is believed that this was a dish eaten by the farmers because it provided them with enough energy to go about their day out working in the fields. You may usually get Kaćamak with a side of yogurt.

Black seafood Risotto

Black risotto is quite a popular Montenegrin food by the sea. It is cooked with squid ink and other types of seafood, normally shrimps or crab.

Black risotto is very tasty and creamy, despite the color that might put some people off and you need to make sure not to have any important appointment afterwards unless you can brush your teeth!

The seafood version of risotto, minus the squid ink, is equally delicious and cooked with tomato sauce instead.

Lamb in Milk

As the name indicates this is literally lamb cooked in milk for a long time until tender . The milk makes the lamb meat come off the bone and the root vegetables that usually accompany give some more earthy flavors.

This is a dish that is common of other countries where lamb is the norm like Jordan or Italy, and is one of the most commonly found and enjoyed dishes in Montenegro.

Lamb in milk is often cooked in the same sac used to make other lamb dishes but not necessarily.

Shopska salad

This is a version of the Greek salad with much of the same ingredients but instead of feta cheese most commonly eaten in Albania and Greece, the cheese is grated and of the white brine type.

Shopska salad is sometimes referred to as Bulgarian salad too and found across the country’s menus. It is one of the most pervasive Montenegrin dishes, especially in the summer months when all of its ingredients are in season and the weather calls for a cold, crunchy starter.

All of Montenegro’s summer foods are combined to make a healthy dish. You will find tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers (sometimes roasted), onions and topped with the grated cheese.

A shot of rakia may also be enjoyed by the locals along with the salad, or you can order your own too for a more authentic experience.

Grilled fish from Lake Skadar

Although Montenegro’s food very much follows the seasons and the country’s geography, with fish more present by the coast, the country also has some wonderful lakes inland which provide an additional source of fish.

Lake Skadar has delicious fresh water foods like trout or carp, best enjoyed grilled with olive oil and some tomatoes. Find a restaurant by the lakeside and order this lake delicacy. This is as fresh as fish can get.

Best desserts from Montenegro

Like other countries in the Balkans and southern Mediterranean, Montenegrins have a sweet tooth and enjoy rich desserts so we could not finish a list of Montenegro food without talking about the happy ending.

Kolači – Cake

This is a wide encompassing range of Montenegrin desserts which have a cake-like shape. Every house and chef has their own cake which can be made with any type of ingredient and they will always be called Kolači.

As strange as it sounds, the menus will usually just say cake, and maybe you will have some information about the ingredients too, like apple or pear.

Baklavas are a common dessert staple across the region and in farther away parts of Northern Africa, Central Asia or the Middle East, you can even find them in Sicily . They are made with copious amounts of honey, syrup and nuts, usually pistachios or almonds, layered between crunchy phyllo pastry .

In Montenegro, baklavas are pretty common and easy to find in the dessert menus. They are an incredibly sweet dessert which I enjoy for the first two bites. They are a great companion to strong tea or coffee and a very sweet ending to any meal in Montenegro.

Palačinke – Pancakes

Palačinke are humble pancakes elevated with wonderful fillings like chocolate, or simply some sugar or jam. They are very much like the french crepes but instead of serving them in folded triangles, they are rolled like cigars.

Best drinks in Montenegro

Montenegro is starting to be known for its wines and for rakia , the distilled brandy from grapes. You cannot leave the country without trying some of the best of both so let me give you some suggestions for drinks to try in Montenegro.

Montenegrin wines

You may have never heard of Montenegrin wines before but they are quite unique and definitely worth trying if you are visiting the country. And this should be easy because they are widely available in local menus.

But let me share some more facts about Montenegrin wines.

Montenegro has the largest vineyard in Europe belonging to Plantaze and measuring 2,000 hectares. The vineyard and cellars are located towards the southeast, near the capital of Podgorica and the border with Albania.

Plantaze was the only winery during Yugoslavia times and it is still owned by the government of Montenegro. You can actually visit it on a tour and try some of its wine which is quite a fascinating experience.

What is more, one of their cellars is located in a former military airport carved into the mountain which used to hide 21 aircrafts before a fire destroyed them all. The cellar spirals 300m into the mountain and is quite a sight .

Aside from Plantaze, there are several other wineries in Montenegro with wonderful wines but in all cases, the most important autochthonous grape variety is Vranac which is a local Montenegrin word for black horse and refers to the feisty and strong red grape.

I very much enjoyed Vranac wines and tried to look for it in all menus. While Plantaze wines are pretty common and usually sold at restaurants in 187ml individual bottles like the ones served on planes, other wineries are far less common and not easy to find beyond Kotor, Podgorica or some of the higher end restaurants along the northern parts of the coast.

Some other wineries to look out for are Savina , located very near the border with Croatia and perched above the hills near the monastery of the same name, with pretty artisanal wines. The winery can also be visited on a pre-booked tour.

Radevic Estate produces Aman Sveti Stefan red wine on top of their own brand, and as you can imagine of the country’s most luxurious hotel, the wines are as premium as the black bottles in which they are sold.

The local sommeliers suggested Milovic Winery (no website) as one of the best in the country. Small and family-run, it seems to be the choice of the wine experts in Montenegro.

Rakia is a very popular grape brandy commonly found across the Balkans with small variations in spelling. It is clear and does not have much taste, unless you buy the fruit variations which tend to have a bit more flavor.

Rakia is made from distilling grapes and has a very high percentage of alcohol, sometimes well above 50% so you have to be careful when drinking it.

While rakia is drunk with dessert, it is also enjoyed by the locals with their salads or starters and always gulped down in one shot.

Niksicko Beer

While wine and rakia are the most common drinks in Montenegro, at least with food, beer is also pretty common and the local Niksicko is a good options for those who like European pale ales . It is usually served in half a liter glass bottles.

Montenegro boasts a stunning stretch of Mediterranean coastline, gorgeous tucked-away mountain hamlets and charming small-town affability.

It probably comes as no surprise that Montenegro is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s fastest-growing tourist destinations.

Yet venture beyond the glitz and be rightly rewarded with pristine natural landscapes and rustic towns oozing old-European charm. Subtle but seductive, stylish and schmick, this new kid on the Balkans block is fast moving to the top of its class.

Best time to visit montenegro.

Party to both Mediterranean summers and Balkan winters, the question of when to visit Montenegro really depends on what you’re after. The months of July and August, referred to locally – and somewhat dramatically – as ‘the Season’ sees coastal tourism at full-throttle with beaches, hotels and restaurants packed out by Europe’s summer sun seekers. As a result, either side of this period is the best time for a visit with May, June, September and October still enjoying balmy days, pleasant evenings and warm waters.

November through to April is the winter period when inland temperature can drop to below freezing, but it also marks the opening of the country’s ski runs and the coast can present a scenic (and quiet) getaway for the less adventurous.

Geography and environment

Montenegro’s slim   182 mile-long   coastline quickly develops into inland plains before rising to forested mountain peaks – some of Europe’s most rugged – along the country’s borders with Serbia and Albania .

Top 5 creatures in Montenegro

Fairytale and soft-toy enthusiasts will be thrilled to learn that Montenegro is home to a stable population of European brown bears. Eternally vying with its polar cousin for the uber-cool title of ‘world’s largest land-based predator’, you may not like to encounter one unexpectedly (extremely unlikely), but it’s fun to know that they’re plodding about somewhere not too far off.

As the most widely distributed large mammal on the planet, it’s probably not overly surprising to hear that the country boasting Europe’s highest index of species per area unit should also have its share of grey wolves – even if the government has made it legal to hunt them.

Much like the tourists who descend on the country’s beaches during July and August, these curious and cheeky critters can sometimes be spotted breaching the surface of Montenegro’s freshwater lakes or basking by their shores. So well-liked are these little guys that in 2011, the Montenegrin Ministry of Culture launched ‘Otter Fest 2011’: a festival promoting the development of Skadar Lake’s local communities, which draws attention to its endangered otter population.

Probably the fluffiest of Montenegro’s wildlife, but with a dwindling population thought to be less than 100 due to illegal poaching, the Balkan lynx is only very rarely spotted in the remote mountainous region of the country’s east.

5. Golden eagles

Proudly emblazoned on the country’s flag, the majestic golden eagle is sometimes spied scouring its skies. One of the best-known birds of prey, it’s certainly one of the most powerful hunters, with reported sightings of sheep and goats being snatched up, and one confirmed account of a brown bear cub being carried off!

Montenegrin Food: From Meza to Priganice

So you want to know more about Montenegrin food. Let me just say it’s very hard to start off the article with only one pic. Montenegrin cuisine ranges so wide, it’s impossible to sum it up in one style . Here, I will make sure to include all the traditional Montenegrin food and some that is a result of fusion.

In the Balkan countries, Montenegro stands out with its unique food experience. Here, every bite of Balkan food demands a sip of local wine . It’s not just tradition—it’s a lifestyle. Dive into Montenegro’s culinary scene, and let the rich flavors of their dishes dance with the fruity notes of their iconic wines. It’s not just a meal; it’s an unforgettable journey!

Dive into the heart of Montenegro, where Mediterranean cuisine takes center stage. Here, every home visit is an invitation to savor soft cheese and bite into warm homemade bread. It’s not just a restaurant specialty—it’s a household staple. Experience Montenegro authentically, where every meal feels like a warm embrace from its people.

Meza – a meal before the meal

Although the closest translation would be ‘appetizer’, which is something you eat before the main meal, Montenegrins don’t use the word ‘appetizer’. We use the word ‘meza’ (MEH – ZAH). It means ‘something you quickly eat’. We view it as a warm-up for the tummy.

The traditional dish of meza isn’t just a Montenegrin starter; it’s an essential part of the entire dining journey. Unlike standard appetizers that vanish before the main course, meza proudly stays on the table, beckoning guests throughout the meal. Drizzled with olive oil and showcasing various types of meats, it’s the perfect accompaniment to cleanse the palate or bridge the gap between courses. So, when you’re at a Montenegrin feast and the meza remains even as the main dish is served, embrace it. It’s this leisurely and communal dining approach that sets Montenegrin cuisine apart.

The classical meza consists of:

Every Montenegrin household’s fridge has at least 500gr (1.1lbs) of this delicates. If you are ever in Montenegro, just ask for ‘prshuta’ and you will become a favorite guest. What makes it traditional is the fact that Montenegrins rarely buy processed prosciutto, and instead make their own.

In the beautiful country of Montenegro, crafting prshuta, their cherished dry cured ham, is an art steeped in tradition. It demands patience, expertise, and a touch of serendipity. Throughout the seasons, many households meticulously dry and salt their hams, aiming for that impeccable blend of taste and tenderness. While not every home produces its own prshuta, there’s no shortage of local artisans proud to offer their homemade masterpieces. So, when in Montenegro and craving this common dish, seek out these dedicated craftsmen and savor one of the nation’s most prized culinary delights.

For an unforgettable gastronomic adventure in Montenegro, don’t miss this ultimate guide to the best foodie tours that takes you from the coastal delicacies of Ulcinj and Kotor to the traditional cheesemaking practices in Kolašin.

Next on the list for an average meza is cheese. Not grated, nor processed, but real home-made cheese served in large chunks.

My grandma has cows and makes a couple of pounds of cheese every week. It is divided into old (‘stari’ ; STAH-REE) and young (‘mladi’ ; MLAH-DEE) cheese (‘sir’ ; SEER) . The main difference is that the ‘old cheese’ has a much stronger taste and is mostly preferred by many.

The most famous cheese in all of Montenegro is the ‘Pljevaljski’ sir . Pljevlja is a town on the North of the country, and is very renowned for producing the best cheese in Montenegro.

For a deep dive into authentic Montenegrin and Balkan dishes, make sure to ask for stari sir, Montenegro’s cherished aged cheese. Whether you’re at a bustling local eatery or a resident’s welcoming home, expressing interest in this fresh cheese is a surefire way to earn genuine appreciation. It’s a common food, yet so special that guests curious about stari sir often receive an extra portion, showcasing the renowned Montenegrin hospitality. So, venture out and request this delightful cheese – it might just lead to a memorable culinary journey in the heart of the Balkans!

There are many other side things that could be included in a plate of Meza, but these two are basic ones. Now let’s get onto something more specific!

Priganice – most famous food in Montenegro

Please remember this: THIS is the most famous food in all of Montenegro , and there is not a single Montenegrin person that doesn’t eat these at least once a week.

Dive into the heart of Balkan cuisine with Priganice, a delicious treat and a breakfast favorite in Montenegro. These baked pastries, pronounced PREEH-GAH-NEETZ-EH, are light, airy doughnuts typically savored piping hot with honey and sugar. While they’re a common accompaniment to morning meals, everyone has their unique twist. I, being the unconventional one, often enjoy mine with ketchup and mayo. The best part? Crafting these treats at home is simple, and I frequently indulge in making a batch. Why not explore this delightful taste? With their perfect balance of sweet and savory, Priganice might just earn a special spot in your culinary repertoire.

The recipe:

If you’re looking to make enough priganice to serve four people, start by mixing 400 grams (or 13 ounces) of regular flour with three eggs in a bowl. In a separate pot, combine 150 milliliters of milk and 150 milliliters of water, and heat the mixture for about four minutes. Once it’s ready, add the milk and water mixture to the bowl with the flour and eggs, and use a mixer to combine everything into a thick dough. The consistency should be runny, but not too watery – to test it, use a spoon to see if the dough spreads out without spilling right out of the spoon. With this simple recipe, you’ll be well on your way to enjoying the delectable taste and texture of Montenegro’s beloved priganice.

To prepare your own batch of priganice, start by spooning dollops of dough into a pan filled halfway with hot oil. As the dough sizzles and bubbles, you’ll want to turn the priganice every 2-3 minutes to ensure they cook evenly on both sides. When they reach a rich, golden-yellow hue, it’s time to remove them from the pan and get ready to indulge in their delectable goodness. Of course, if you find that the oil is splattering too much, you can always reduce the temperature of the hot plate by one notch to prevent any mishaps. And when it comes to serving, there are a variety of delicious accompaniments to choose from – whether you prefer your priganice drizzled with honey, spread with jam, or dusted with sugar, there’s no wrong way to enjoy this beloved Montenegrin breakfast staple.

Make sure to let me know how it turns out!

Cevapi – a must for a barbeque!

If you are planning on attending a Montenegrin barbeque, be ready for cevapi (CHE-VAH-PEEH) . These are the soul and essence of every social gathering in Montenegro.

Embarking on an authentic food quest in Montenegro? Cevapi, the country’s national dish, is a must-try comfort food. While crafting these delectable sausage-like morsels might seem challenging initially, a touch of dedication will have you mastering them in no time. Unlike typical sausages, cevapi boast a unique flavor and aroma, often grilled over hot coals for that distinct touch. Whether you savor them individually or tuck them into a lepinja for a hearty bite (my personal favorite), cevapi promise a genuine Montenegrin experience. So, dive in and discover the rich, savory essence of this beloved dish – it’s bound to capture your culinary heart.

A lepinja (LEH-PEEH-NIA) is what you can see in the picture above. It is a round or oval-shaped flatbread with a soft and fluffy interior and a slightly crispy crust.

Kajmak, a creamy delight akin to clotted cream or crème fraîche, paired with onions, is the food specialty that perfectly complements cevapi. This blend of cream cheese richness and the zing of sour cream is a common accompaniment, elevating the cevapi experience.

We are certain you won’t have trouble finding these wherever you visit in Montenegro.

Black risotto

Here is something that is not inherently Montenegrin .

Black risotto , also known as Crni Rizoto (TZR-NEE REEZ-OTTO) in Montenegrin, is a popular seafood dish that can you can find in many restaurants in Montenegrin coastal towns, such as Kotor , Tivat , Herceg Novi , or Budva . The dish gets its dark color from the ink of squid or cuttlefish , which is mixed with the rice during the cooking process.

Black risotto, with its distinctive black color from cuttlefish ink, is a tasty dish that blends the flavors of fresh seafood like squid, mussels, shrimp, and clams, all cooked together with white wine , onions, and garlic. Paired with a fresh salad or perfectly grilled vegetables, it offers a healthy dish that’s both rich and balanced. When in Montenegro, this fresh fish specialty, especially when accompanied by grilled squid, is a must for seafood lovers. Dive into this unique Montenegrin culinary experience, and let your palate revel in its unmatched flavor and texture.

Honorable mentions – Montenegrin food you should try

This could really go on forever. That’s why it’s best to mention other famous food you will come across in Montenegro.

Firstly, kacamak (KAH-CHA-MACK) is the oldest, most traditional Montenegrin food. We have already written about it, so make sure to read about this delicious, mostly homemade meal here .

Italian food (pizza, calzone, pasta, etc.) plays a major role in Montenegrin cuisine. They are neighboring countries sea-wise, and Italy has had a lot of influence on Montenegro throughout history. You will find a wide range of Italian food wherever you go.

Turkish food , such as pies, baklava, burek, and all sort of other traditional Turkish meals are available in Montenegro. Every local bakery sells burek as one of their main foods.

Spicy food , that comes from Eastern and South parts of Serbia (neighboring country) can also be seen in the majority of restaurants throughout Montenegro.

Whatever origin your food taste derives from, I guarantee you will fulfill it for the time you spend in Montenegro. There is no better feeling than having the food you love following you wherever you go!

Should I book a guided tour of Kotor?

Does montenegro have good wine, what is montenegro famous for, is montenegro a cheap country, where to go and what to do in montenegro, njeguški pršut and cheese.

Njeguški pršut and cheese are two of Montenegro’s most famous and well-known traditional foods. Njeguški pršut is a type of smoked ham. This tasty delicacy has been produced in the village of Njeguši for centuries using a unique recipe passed down from generation to generation. It is made from high-quality local pork, sea salt, and spices and is aged for at least a year to develop its unique flavor.

Njeguški cheese is also made using a special technique and an old recipe. It has a slightly salty taste and is a creamy type of cheese. Both of these delicacies are perfect for enjoying paired with a glass of local wine. While in Montenegro, you have to try both these delicious and rich gastronomy treats that are a part of the cultural heritage.

Vranac wine

Vranac is a red wine grape variety that is native to Montenegro and neighboring countries. It is known for its deep red color, high tannins, and fruity flavors. Vranac wines are typically aged in oak barrels, which gives them additional complexity and depth. This wine is often paired with traditional Montenegrin dishes such as roasted lamb or grilled meat, but it can easily be paired with both sweet and salty food.

17 Beautiful Things to do in Kotor, Montenegro

Adventurous Kate contains affiliate links. If you make a purchase through these links, I will earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Thanks!

The town of Kotor, Montenegro will stun you from the moment you first see it. Nestled in the Bay of Kotor and surrounded by mountains, this town has a history dating back more than 2,000 years and is achingly beautiful from every angle. And there are so many things to do in Kotor!

I first visited Kotor more than a decade ago and fell in love hard and fast. I still think it’s one of the most gorgeous places I’ve ever visited, the stone town set in a fjord on the smooth green Bay of Kotor, surrounded by green mountains in every direction.

Since that first trip, I’ve returned to Montenegro a few more times and have witnessed Kotor grow from an offbeat travel destination to a major hotspot on the Adriatic Sea.

Kotor is by far the most visited place in Montenegro, thanks in part to a recent influx of cruise ship visitors. However, there’s so much to experience in Kotor and the surrounding area that a one-day visit on a cruise does not REMOTELY do it justice!

Kotor is a destination to be savored. Watching the sunrise over the Bay of Kotor after hiking to the top of San Giovanni Fortress, wandering the ancient streets of the Old Town, sampling local prosciutto and cheeses, taking a boat trip to nearby Perast and the Blue Cave, and driving the hairpin turns of the Kotor Serpentine are just a few highlights of visiting this stunning destination.

Let me show you the best things to do in Kotor, Montenegro. You’re never going to forget this trip!

This post was published in January 2024 and was co-written by Adventurous Kate and Dale Peterson.

Things to Do in Kotor, Montenegro

Climb to san giovanni fortress.

Far and away, this is my favorite thing to do in Kotor — and I recommend you make this a high priority. San Giovanni Fortress sits high above Kotor, providing stunning views of the Old Town and the Bay of Kotor.

This isn’t a technically challenging hike, but it does include more than 1,350 stairs. Give yourself at least 90 minutes to two hours for this activity, not including the time you’ll want to spend at the top snapping photos. 

The best time to do this hike is first thing in the morning for cool temperatures, no crowds, and beautiful light across the bay. And by first thing in the morning, I mean around 5:30-6:30 AM. (It’s not my usual thing to get up that early, but it’s so worth it here.)

Definitely avoid this hike in mid-day, when it’s hot and the sun is punishingly strong, and in the late afternoon, when the bay is full of shadows.

Admission to the hiking path costs 8 EUR ($8.50 USD), but here’s a tip: if you go early in the morning, there may not be anyone at the gate to collect your money. 

Wander through Kotor’s Stari Grad (Old Town) 

One of the best things to do in Kotor is to simply wander through Stari Grad, or the Old Town. You can explore the historic buildings and quaint streets on your own, or book a Kotor walking tour to learn the historical context of this fascinating region.

This is a highly-rated group walking tour of Kotor , or you can book a private tour. Up for some local cuisine? This private walking tour of Kotor also includes a local meat and cheese tasting.

Don’t forget to visit St. Nicholas’s Church and St. Tryphon’s Cathedral, two of the prettiest churches in town.

Another one of the best things to do in Kotor is walk the city walls. While these walls aren’t as extensive as Dubrovnik’s, they don’t charge Dubrovnik prices (a wild 35 EUR)! In Kotor, it’s only 8 EUR ($8.50 USD) to walk the City Walls from 8:00 AM-8:00 PM (and you can visit for free outside of these hours).

Explore the Old Town Market

Kotor’s Old Town Market operates every day year-round, but it’s most active on Saturday mornings. Located right at the gates of the Old Town, this is a great place to stop and buy some local fruits, vegetables, meats, and cheeses.

Stop here to pick up snacks or picnic supplies for the day ahead, or grab a bottle of local Montenegrin Vranac wine. (I know, you’ve probably never had Montenegrin wine, but they make some good stuff here!)

Visit the Kotor Cats Museum

One of the quirkiest things about Kotor is the free-roaming cats you’ll see throughout the Old Town. The cats are so ubiquitous that they’ve basically become the symbol of Kotor. If you’re a cat lover like me, you’ll love this!

The Kotor Cats Museum is an eccentric little collection dedicated to cat art and memorabilia throughout history, with artwork and artifacts dating back to the 16th century.

Admission is just 1 EUR ($1 USD), and part of the ticket proceeds are used to care for Kotor’s many stray cats. If it’s within your means, I recommend making a donation to Kotor Kitties , which does a lot of good work.

Visit the Maritime Museum

The Maritime Museum is another interesting museum in Kotor that’s worth a visit. Located in a historic palace in the Old Town, the Maritime Museum offers an impressive collection of artifacts related to the Bay of Kotor’s nautical history.

You can see model ships, weapons, and exhibits on the maritime history of Kotor throughout the centuries.

Admission to the Maritime Museum is 4 EUR ($4 USD).

Take a boat tour to the Blue Cave

An activity you can’t miss? Going for a swim in the Blue Cave. This is a popular day trip from Kotor. The Blue Cave, also known as the Blue Grotto, is a coastal cave accessible only from the water.

When the light hits the water at a certain time of day, it illuminates it with a bright blue glow. (Note that this is different from the Blue Cave in Croatia, which is located on the island of Vis .)

This three-hour boat tour visits the Blue Cave with ample time for swimming and snorkeling. You’ll also visit several other spots in the Bay of Kotor, including Mamula Island, the submarine tunnel, and Our Lady of the Rocks.

(Keep in mind that this is weather-dependent. I missed a chance to visit the Blue Cave because the wind was too strong and waves were too high.)

If you want to visit the Blue Cave independently, you’ll need your own vehicle. You can drive to Igalo, one hour from Kotor, and catch a 5 EUR ($5 USD) boat from the beach to the Blue Cave.

Go on a food tour

Montenegrin cuisine is rich and hearty. It’s distinctly Balkan, but it also has influences from Italian, Greek, and Turkish cuisine. You can discover the food and drinks of Montenegro on this highly-rated Kotor food tour.

For three hours, you’ll discover the Old Town of Kotor as you sample Montenegrin cuisine, including smoky prosciutto, cheeses, fresh local seafood, Montenegrin wine, and more.

You’ll also learn about Montenegro’s history as you stop at the Old Town Market, St. Tryphon’s Cathedral, and other important places in Kotor.

Relax at Kotor Beach

Just a 10-minute walk from Kotor’s Old Town is Kotor Beach. I’ll be honest, though — this beach is not much to look at. While it’s small and not one of the best beaches in Montenegro, it’s the closest beach to Kotor. With a small pebbled stretch of shore, this beach can get very crowded during the summer months.

It’s a good spot for swimming or sunbathing near Kotor, but you can find much better beaches along the Budva Riviera, about a 30-minute drive from Kotor. From Budva heading south, there are plenty of far more stunning beaches.

At least that IS a beach, though. Head down the road to Perast and the “beaches” are cement platforms!

Go kayaking or paddleboarding

Kotor Bay, also known as Boka Kotorska in Montenegrin, is perfect for kayaking or paddleboarding. Since it’s a sheltered bay with only a small opening from the Adriatic Sea, the water here is usually calm and still.

This three-hour kayaking tour will allow you to explore the beauty of the bay by kayak, while this paddleboarding tour includes a lesson that will have you standing up and paddling your board through the bay like a pro in no time.

Visit Perast and Our Lady of the Rocks

One of the most charming towns in Montenegro is the tiny village of Perast. I recently spent four days based in Perast , but this town also makes the perfect day trip from Kotor.

Perast is very small — you can walk the town from end to end in about 20 minutes. The waterfront is lined with cafes, restaurants, and ice cream shops. From the harbor, you can see two tiny nearby islands — Our Lady of the Rocks and Saint George.

The most popular activity in Perast is visiting Our Lady of the Rocks, a tiny artificial island in the Bay of Kotor that’s home to a blue-domed church. You can join a tour from Kotor ( this boat tour stops in Perast and Our Lady of the Rocks, while this boat tour also includes the Blue Cave), or visit Perast independently.

Numerous tour operators offer boat rides to the island from Perast for 5-10 EUR ($5-11 USD.) You’ll have time to stop and visit Our Lady of the Rocks and pass by Saint George (it’s a private monastery and not open to the public).

To get to Perast from Kotor, you can take the Blue Line bus, which runs hourly (and every two hours on Sundays). It’s about a 30-minute ride, and tickets are 1.50 EUR ($1.60 USD).

If you have your own vehicle, you can drive to Perast. Most of the parking lots will give you free parking if you buy a ticket to Our Lady of the Rocks through them, though know that in the summer the parking lots are often full. I met some travelers who parked for free far down the main road and walked.

Visit Budva and Sveti Stefan

If you’re looking for the best beaches near Kotor, head to Budva . This lively town on the Adriatic Sea has some Miami vibes with its long beaches, tall apartment buildings, and big nightlife scene.

Budva has some of the best beaches in Montenegro , with sandy shores and crystal-clear turquoise waters. And Budva’s medieval old town is worth a visit as well. It’s a bit of a “baby Dubrovnik” with a walled city and orange-roofed buildings — very beautiful, but on a smaller scale than the popular Croatian destination.

If you have time, Sveti Stefan is worth visiting, if only to enjoy the view of the gorgeous island in the sea! (The island is actually a resort that is closed to outsiders, and is being renovated at the time of publication.) There are beaches in town to enjoy, but avoid the expensive beaches owned by the hotel.

You can visit these towns by tour, this is a great tour option from Kotor that brings you to both Budva and Sveti Stefan.

To get to Budva from Kotor, bus tickets are 4 EUR ($4 USD) and take about 40 minutes. Sveti Stefan is just a bit further. Budva is a 30-minute drive from Kotor, though keep in mind that traffic can be bumper-to-bumper in the busy summer months.

Visit Durmitor National Park

While Montenegro is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, it’s not all about the Bay of Kotor — there’s also Durmitor National Park. If you have time to visit only one of Montenegro’s five national parks, this should be it.

Located in the northwestern part of the country, about 3.5 hours from Kotor, it’s possible to visit Durmitor National Park on a day trip. (That said, I think that if you have the time, you should spend two nights in the main town of Žabljak so you can enjoy a full day in the park.)

The best thing to do in Durmitor National Park? Rafting in Tara Canyon! You’ll pass the kind of scenery that makes you gasp in wonder. This is the second-deepest in the world after the Grand Canyon. Rafting is at its wildest in late spring and early summer; trips are much calmer towards August and beyond.

This tour from Kotor includes much of Durmitor National Park , including Black Lake, Tara Canyon, and even a stop by the very cool Ostrog Monastery — though no rafting.

Want to go rafting? This rafting tour takes you directly from Kotor and includes breakfast and lunch.

You can also do this trip by rental car. It’s about a 3.5 hour drive, but keep in mind that the roads up in the mountains are small and winding. It’s not like Croatia where you have wide, smooth highways. And unfortunately there is not a day-trippable journey by public transportation.

Go Off the Beaten Path on the Great Montenegro Tour

The Great Montenegro Tour is an activity I highly recommend because it includes a LOT of cool spots most tours don’t get to in a single day. If you have limited time in Kotor, the Great Montenegro Tour is an excellent way to get an overview of this compact and beautiful country.

Beginning in Kotor, this full-day tour will take you to Lovcen National Park, the historic village of Njegusi (famous for its prosciutto), the old capital of Cetinje, scenic Lake Skadar, and picture-perfect Sveti Stefan.

Although it’s a long day (the tour lasts 11 hours), I think this tour is excellent value for money, especially if you’re short on time. You’ll be able to visit several lesser-visited parts of Montenegro in one fell swoop.

You can book the tour here.

Visit Skadar Lake and Biogradska Gora

Skadar Lake and Biogradska Gora are two of the most beautiful places in Montenegro — yet they receive only a fraction of the tourists of the Bay of Kotor or Durmitor National Park. Located in the southern and eastern parts of the country, these two captivating areas of natural beauty make a great day trip from Kotor.

This full-day tour visits scenic Skadar Lake, situated on the border between Montenegro and Albania, and Biogradska Gora, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and the last remaining virgin forest in Europe.

You can book the tour here. If visiting independently, Biogradska Gore is a three-hour drive from Kotor, and Skadar Lake is a slight detour on the way back.

Visit Tivat

Tivat is more than just the airport — this is where you can experience the ultra-glitzy side of travel in Montenegro. The waterfront area of Porto Montenegro in Tivat is where you’ll find high-end shopping, chic restaurants and bars, luxury resorts, and sleek yachts docked in the harbor.

Stop at Buddha-Bar Beach, a trendy restaurant and beach club near the marina, or go window shopping at Bvlgari, Dior, Rolex, and other luxury boutiques.

Tivat is a 20-minute drive from Kotor, or you can take the Blue Line bus, which runs hourly (and every two hours on Sundays). Tickets are 1.50 EUR ($1.60 USD).

Drive or Bike the Kotor Serpentine

There’s no better way to take in views of the Bay of Kotor than by driving or biking the Kotor Serpentine. This winding, scenic road made up of 25 switchbacks offers breathtaking views looking down over the bay.

Driving from Kotor, it takes about 40 minutes to reach the top viewpoint of the Kotor Serpentine. While the hairpin turns can be harrowing, the road is in good condition. Expect heavier traffic during the summer months.

If you’re up for an adventure, this panoramic downhill cycling tour is another way to experience the Kotor Serpentine. Now that’s an adventure!

Go on a Jeep tour 

Take an exhilarating off-path drive to experience some of the best scenery near Kotor on this three-hour Jeep tour. It’s a great way to explore the area around Kotor if you don’t have your own vehicle. You’ll drive on a coastal track to the stone village of Gornji Stoliv.

In the village, you’ll take a walking tour and meet some of the locals before enjoying delicious local fare, including prosciutto, cheese, olives, and homemade bread.

How much time to spend in Kotor

How much time do you need in Kotor? If you’re just visiting to see the sights, you can see them all in one to two days. But you can easily use Kotor as a base for visiting other parts of Montenegro, and for that reason, you can stay here for a few days or even a week!

A lot of people visit Kotor as a day trip to Montenegro from Dubrovnik , but I advise against doing this, unless you really want to do this and don’t have more than a day free. Traffic from Dubrovnik to Kotor is awful in the busy summer months, and you will probably spend a lot of time waiting in line at immigration — twice.

Spending a few days in Kotor is the best way to really soak in this lovely destination. Trust me, you won’t regret spending extra time here.

How to get to Kotor

How do you get to Kotor, Montenegro? It depends on where you’re coming from. The closest airport to Kotor is in Tivat, a 20-minute drive away. From here a taxi to Kotor will cost around 20 EUR ($21.25 USD).

Another option is to fly into the capital of Podgorica, Montenegro, which is 1 hour and 40 minutes from Kotor. (No need to linger in Podgorica — other places in Montenegro are much better.) From here you can get a taxi to Kotor (it should be around 75 EUR, or $80 USD), or a taxi to the bus station and a bus to Kotor (2 hours, 8 EUR or $8.50 USD).

Many travelers also arrive in Kotor via Dubrovnik, Croatia. Montenegro is often a coda to a longer Croatia trip. If you’re coming from Dubrovnik by car, it’s about 2-hour drive, though. You can book a private transfer starting at around 130 EUR ($138 USD), or take the bus with Croatia Bus (two hours, 25 EUR or $27 USD).

Unfortunately, there are no ride-hailing or ride-sharing apps in Montenegro, so your only options are rental cars, taxis, private transfers, and buses. What’s worse is that taxis can and do jack up their rates during the busy summer months.

The Blue Line Bus runs from Kotor in both directions. There is also the  hop-on-hop-off bus in Montenegro , which runs from Kotor to Risan via Perast. It costs 25 EUR ($27) for 24 hours, which I think is a bit excessive, but might be worth it if you want to avoid both taxis and public buses.

Where to Stay in Kotor, Montenegro

Staying in the old town or a short walk from it will give you the best experience in Kotor. While Kotor is one of the most expensive places to stay in Montenegro, it’s worth the extra cost to base yourself here for the convenience.

Like many destinations in the Balkans, apartments and guesthouses tend to be the norm in Montenegro rather than hotels. However, since Kotor is such a popular destination, you’ll find a variety of hotels too.

Here are the top-rated places to stay in Kotor’s old town:

• Top-Rated Luxury Hotel in Kotor: If you want to stay in the old town, Hotel Vardar is a great luxury hotel. If you don’t mind being a bit out of town, the Palazzo Radomiri Heritage Boutique Hotel is another good option.
• Top-Rated Mid-Range Hotel in Kotor: The chic Boutique Hotel Hippocampus offers comfortable rooms and a rooftop terrace in a central location.
• Top-Rated Budget Hotel in Kotor: Guesthouse BiT Accommodation provides a lot of value with cheap and cozy rooms in the old town.
• Find deals on places to stay in Kotor here.

Best Time to Visit Kotor

You might be surprised by the best time of year to visit Kotor. While I feel like the Bay of Kotor and Montenegro as a whole are a quintessential summer destination, the peak months of July and August are incredibly hot and crowded. Higher prices, summer traffic, and hordes of cruise ship tourists descending on Kotor are what you’ll encounter in July and August.

If you want to visit Kotor during the summer, early to mid-June and mid-September to early October are the best times to target. This is still peak season, but it’s not as crowded or expensive as July and August. Keep in mind that if you want to swim in the Bay of Kotor or the Adriatic Sea, the water will be warmer at the end of summer.

If warm summer weather isn’t as important to you, I recommend visiting Kotor in the shoulder season. April, May, and October are great months for visiting Kotor with few crowds, lower prices, and mild, cool weather.

During late March and April, you can experience Camellia Days, a spring festival in Kotor. Searock Festival is a low-key music festival held in the Old Town during the last weekend of July. In nearby Perast, the International Klapa Festival is an acapella festival held every September.

Is Kotor Worth It?

Not only is Kotor worth it, Kotor is worth much more time than most people give it! So yes, my dear readers, you should go to Kotor, Montenegro.

But don’t just go for a day trip from Dubrovnik. Stay in Kotor for a few days, at least. Hike up to San Giovanni at sunrise. Stroll along the bay. Try the Montenegrin wines. Give love to the kitties.

And don’t forget to marvel at the scintillating landscape, asking yourself how you ever got so lucky to visit a place like this.

Montenegro Food: Exploring the Rich Culinary Traditions

From the savory Burek to the sweet Krostule, Montenegro's cuisine is a reflection of its diverse cultural influences. Join us on a culinary journey.

Montenegro is a small country with a rich culinary heritage and Montenegro food offers a unique fusion of flavors that reflect its diverse cultural influences. The country's cuisine has been shaped by centuries of history, from the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires to the Mediterranean and Balkan regions. Visitors to Montenegro can experience a range of traditional dishes that are deeply ingrained in the local culture and are a source of pride for its people.

Meat Dishes

Burek, Cevapi, Pasticada, and Njeguski Steak are some of the most famous meat dishes in Montenegro. These dishes are representative of the rich culinary traditions of the country and showcase the unique fusion of flavors that define Montenegrin cuisine. While Burek is said to have originated in Turkey, it has become a staple Montenegro food and the Balkan region as a whole. It's a savory pastry that's made by layering thin sheets of phyllo dough with a filling made of cheese, meat, or spinach. Cevapi, on the other hand, is a type of grilled sausage that's made with a combination of beef and lamb. It's often served with onions and a type of flatbread called lepinja.

Pasticada is a popular dish from the coastal region of Montenegro, particularly in the city of Kotor. It's a type of beef stew that's slow-cooked with vegetables, prunes, and red wine. The meat is marinated overnight in a mixture of vinegar, garlic, and spices, which gives it a unique flavor. Pasticada is often served with gnocchi or pasta and is a perfect comfort food for a chilly day.

Njeguski Steak is a famous Montenegrin dish that originated in the Njegusi village in the mountains of Montenegro. It's a grilled pork or beef steak that's served with a side of smoked ham and cheese. The ham and cheese are also from the Njegusi village and are famous for their smoky and salty taste. The dish is often served with a side of potatoes or vegetables and is a must-try for meat lovers.

Seafood and Fruit

Montenegro's coastal region offers an abundance of seafood dishes that reflect the country's Mediterranean influence. Sea bass, bream, mullet, and sardines are some of the most popular fish in Montenegro, and they are often served grilled or roasted with a side of potatoes and vegetables. Oysters are also a delicacy in Montenegro, and the Bay of Kotor is known for its high-quality oysters. Fresh oysters are served at many restaurants along the coast, particularly in the town of Tivat.

Montenegro is also known for its fruit, including blueberries, grapes, and peaches. The country has several fruit orchards that offer tours and tastings. For example, the Blueberry Hill Farm in the village of Tepca offers guided tours of its blueberry fields and a chance to sample some of the farm's blueberry products, including jams and juices. Similarly, the Lipov Lad Vineyard in the Crmnica region offers wine tastings and tours of its vineyards.

Salads and Cheese

Sopska Salad is a refreshing summer salad that's popular in Montenegro and other Balkan countries. It's made with chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and peppers and is usually topped with feta cheese and olives. The salad is dressed with olive oil and vinegar and is a perfect side dish to any meal.

Another famous salad in Montenegro is the Shopska Salad, which is very similar to the Sopska Salad. The only difference is that the Shopska Salad is made with green peppers instead of red peppers. This salad is popular in both Montenegro and Bulgaria and is considered a staple dish in Balkan cuisine.

Pljevaljski Sir is a type of cheese that's named after the town of Pljevlja in the north of Montenegro. It's a hard cheese made from sheep's milk, and it has a distinct flavor that's slightly salty and nutty. The cheese is often grated and used as a topping for soups and stews or served as a snack with a side of olives and bread.

Sweet Delights and Montenegro Food

Desserts are an essential part of Montenegro food, and some of the most famous sweet treats include Krostule, Priganice, and Pita od Dunja. These desserts showcase the influence of various culinary traditions, from the Mediterranean to the Ottoman Empire.

Krostule is a traditional Montenegrin dessert that's made from a dough of flour, sugar, and eggs, which is then deep-fried until golden brown. These crispy, sweet pastries are often dusted with powdered sugar and are popular during holidays and celebrations. Krostule is said to have originated in the coastal region of Montenegro and is a favorite treat among locals and visitors alike.

Priganice is another popular dessert in Montenegro, and it's a type of fried doughnut that's often served with honey or powdered sugar. These fluffy doughnuts are usually enjoyed during special occasions and are a staple in Montenegrin cuisine. The dish is similar to the Turkish dessert Lokma and is an example of the culinary influence that the Ottoman Empire had on Montenegro food.

Pita od Dunja is a Montenegrin dessert made with quince, a fruit that's native to the region. The quince is cooked with sugar and spices, then wrapped in layers of phyllo dough and baked until golden brown. This sweet and tangy dessert is typically served with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream, making it a delightful treat to enjoy after a hearty meal of Montenegro food.

Montenegrin Wine

Montenegro has a long tradition of winemaking, and its wines are as diverse as its landscape. The country's vineyards are located in different regions, each with its unique climate and soil conditions. The most famous wine regions in Montenegro are the Crmnica and Plantaze regions, where you can find some of the best wines in the country. Some of the most popular Montenegrin wines are Vranac, Krstac, and Pro Corde. These wines pair perfectly with the country's cuisine and are a must-try for any wine lover.

The Vranac grape is indigenous to Montenegro and is known for producing full-bodied red wines with high tannins and acidity. Vranac wines are characterized by their dark color and flavors of blackberry, plum, and cherry, making them an excellent accompaniment to meat dishes and grilled vegetables.

Krstac is a white grape variety that produces crisp, refreshing wines with floral and citrus aromas. These wines are often enjoyed as an aperitif or paired with seafood dishes, salads, and light pasta dishes.

Pro Corde is a popular red wine produced by the Plantaze winery, one of Montenegro's largest wine producers. This wine is made from Vranac grapes and is aged in oak barrels, giving it a complex and robust flavor profile. Pro Corde is an excellent choice for pairing with hearty meat dishes, stews, and aged cheeses.

Montenegro's Famous Restaurants

Montenegro is home to many famous restaurants where you can enjoy traditional Montenegrin dishes. One of the most popular restaurants in the country is Konoba Catovica Mlini, located in the village of Morinj on the Bay of Kotor. This restaurant specializes in seafood, and it's known for its fresh fish dishes, including grilled sea bass and octopus salad.

Another famous restaurant in Montenegro is the Stari Mlini restaurant, located in the historic town of Kotor. This restaurant offers a wide range of traditional Montenegrin dishes, including Pasticada and Njeguski Steak. The restaurant is housed in a historic building that dates back to the 18th century, and it offers stunning views of the Bay of Kotor.

Traditional Food Tours

For those who wish to fully immerse themselves in the flavors of Montenegro food, there are various food tours available throughout the country. These tours offer a chance to explore local markets, learn about traditional Montenegrin ingredients, and even participate in cooking classes.

One popular food tour is the Kotor Food Tour, which takes visitors on a culinary journey through the historic town of Kotor. Participants can sample local specialties such as Pasticada, Burek, and Priganice while learning about the town's history and culture. This tour is a great way to experience the unique flavors of Montenegro food while getting to know the people behind these delicious dishes.

Another food tour worth considering is the Podgorica Culinary Experience, which takes visitors to the bustling capital city of Montenegro. This tour focuses on the country's diverse culinary influences, from Mediterranean to Ottoman, and provides a chance to taste a variety of Montenegro food, including Cevapi, Sopska Salad, and Krostule.

In conclusion, Montenegro's cuisine is a fusion of flavors from its diverse cultural influences, and it offers visitors a chance to explore the rich culinary heritage of this Balkan country. From savory meat dishes to refreshing salads and sweet pastries, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Don't forget to pair your meal with some of Montenegro's famous wines or fresh fruit, and make sure to visit some of the country's famous restaurants and food tours for a truly authentic culinary experience.

Montenegro food is not only a reflection of its history and cultural influences but also a testament to the country's natural bounty, from the fresh seafood caught in the Adriatic Sea to the vibrant fruits and vegetables grown in its fertile valleys. As you embark on your journey through Montenegro's culinary landscape, be prepared to discover a world of flavors and traditions that will leave a lasting impression on your palate and create memories you'll cherish forever.

Worthington Farmers Market, Columbus Food Adventures voted as the best in the country

The Worthington Farmers Market is to open its summer season May 4 with a major honor to its credit. It has been voted by readers of USA TODAY as the nation's best farmers market.

They must be doing something right at the market that runs every Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon along a stretch of High Street in Old Worthington. The Worthington Farmers Market topped outdoor markets that operate along the Intracoastal Waterway in West Palm Beach, Florida, and at an oceanfront park in Honolulu.

The West Palm Beach GreenMarket had been voted No. 1 in USA TODAY's 10 best reader polls for three straight years. This was the first year Worthington's market was nominated by a panel of travel writers and other experts.

More farmers markets: When do area farmers markets open? Here's a guide to where and when to go

The result of reader votes were announced today.

"Nearly 100 vendors from the Columbus area converge for the year-round Worthington Farmers Market that adapts to the seasons," USA TODAY wrote.

"In summer, May through October, farmers and producers of high-quality food and plants sell al fresco in the Old Worthington Historic District. The rest of the year, the market goes indoors at The Shops at Worthington Place."

The last indoor market takes place Saturday before it moves outdoors for summer.

Organizers say the Worthington Farmers Market, which began in 1987, should have its highest number of vendors ever this summer.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Five food tours that are for locals too

How to eat your way through several neighborhoods in good company..

By Stacey Lastoe

If there’s one thing New Yorkers like to do, it’s eat. After that, it might be arguing over where to eat — where to find the best slice, the best bagel, best B.E.C., best ramen, and the list goes on.

One way to experience some of Brooklyn’s tastiest bites is by embarking on a food tour. Of course, there’s nothing to stop you from walking out the front door on a Saturday afternoon and going on your own food tour of Sunset Park, Bay Ridge, or Greenpoint, but the option to focus on eating as a professional guides you around one of Brooklyn’s neighborhoods, dispensing doses of history as you nosh on a knish, is available in spades.

Some of Brooklyn’s food tours have been around for decades; others for just a couple of years. The food stops on each are different, but the idea is the same: Good eating in good company. Local businesses are supported, conversation is shared and history is learned.

A Man and His Sandwich Williamsburg Ben Gollan is like many New Yorkers: He’s a transplant. The Australian, a lawyer by trade back in his native country, moved to the city in 2016 and accidentally built what is now a national company. A Man and His Sandwich — the blog came first, then the sandwich tours — was born from Gollan’s search for the world’s best sandwich. “I use this as my excuse to travel around the world eating,” says Gollan whose Brooklyn sandwich tour encourages participants to debate: What even is a sandwich? Is a hot dog a sandwich? How about a hamburger?

“Are you aware that when the hamburger was first invented, it was called a hamburger sandwich ?” Gollan asks. Gollan’s wide understanding of what constitutes a sandwich means tour participants are exposed to all sorts of sandwich-like foods, including the godly Dankwrap from Super Burrito . “We really push the boat on what a sandwich could or could not be,” says Gollan. History — about the neighborhood, the people making their food — is a part of the $69 tour that includes three stops from a changing library of spots. All are led by Gollan himself.

“I just like hanging out with cool people, eating sandwiches, having a beer with them at the end, having a laugh,” says Gollan, whose first expansion outside of New York is Nashville. As for Brooklyn: He’s committed to the Williamsburg area (lots of creative, independent food creators, history and more), but says he’d be open to expanding to other neighborhoods like Cobble Hill, which has an “amazing food scene,” or Prospect Heights, perhaps. “The Williamsburg one will never die though,” Gollan says.

Food Strolls Brooklyn Heights and Coney Island Like A Man and His Sandwich, Alex Tervooren’s Food Strolls started off as a blog. The entries, dating back to 2020 when the former finance worker was considering his next move, were just for fun. In the beginning, “It was just me and my kids wandering around New York City, primarily exploring different ethnic neighborhoods,” says Tervooren. But after a blog post on Harlem’s Little Senegal caught the attention of a book publisher researching a book on West African cultural and religious influences in America and sought him out for a walk around the neighborhood, a light bulb went off.

Tervooren says one thing led to another and instead of going back into finance, Food Strolls is his full-time job. The Brooklyn Heights tour ($75 per person) is the more popular of the two official Brooklyn tours, and a perk of being with Tervooren on a tour is skipping the lines. This is especially useful at Juliana’s Pizza, a popular pizza spot next door to the also popular Grimaldi’s. Lassen and Hennigs, a Jewish and Italian deli and bakery, is also a stop on the Brooklyn Heights food tour. Sometimes Tervooren will share some history and the story of the establishments himself; other times, he’ll have the owners share some of their origin story with tour participants.

Although there is plenty of eating on a Food Stroll, Tervooren insists the ethos is bigger than that. “If the food and the local businesses don’t have some sort of a connection that I can use to help kind of explain the history of the neighborhood, then I won’t include them on the tour.”

Funky Experiences Dumbo Sarah Funk and Luis Yanes launched Funky Experiences food tours in 2019 after Funk’s travel videos on YouTube led to viewers requesting on-the-ground tours. In 2020 when the pandemic hit, the tours went virtual, but now the way to experience Funk’s and Yanes’ passion for the city and its food is via a three-hour tour in Dumbo. The $109 price tag comes with stops at five locally-owned restaurants, including Grimaldi’s and Clinton Street Baking Company’s location in the Time Out Market for “some of the best pancakes the city has to offer,” says Yanes.

Sweet tooths will be duly rewarded with a stop at The Brooklyn Ice Cream factory where Yanes says, “we get to taste (in my opinion) some of the best ice cream in the city made with the best and purest ingredients.”

The company has grown to the point that Funk, founder and CEO, no longer leads tours, but on occasion Yanes, Funky Experiences CTO, heads tours, and promises all guides are carefully vetted and approved by Funk. A love of everything New York City is a must-have trait.

In addition to some of the more expected spots, at least for Brooklynites who’ve lived in the city for any amount of time, the Dumbo tour stops at a local Egyptian restaurant in the nearby Brooklyn Heights, where the friendly owner is often on site to greet the tour group. Although the tour typically follows a set route with mapped stops along the way, Yanes says the guides are at liberty to “switch it up to best fit the needs of the entire group so no one feels left out.”

Noshwalks Brooklyn at large This year, Myra Alperson, founder of Noshwalks, transitioned to a requests-only, private tours format (rates are dependent on the tour). The company, which launched in 2000, was inspired by Alperson’s love of showing people her favorite places. In Brooklyn, this could mean a tour covering a block of Atlantic Avenue known for its Middle Eastern markets and eateries. Or it could take you to Bensonhurst for a taste of Italian, Russian, and Chinese bites.

Brooklyn Food Tour Brooklyn at large For a food tour with a fifth-generation Brooklynite, join Rachel Kaplan as she takes participants around Williamsburg. Qahwah House, a Yemeni establishment serving up excellent chai and coffee, is one of the stops, and of course there’s pizza with a modern twist at Fini Pizza, co-owned by one of Lilia’s founders Sean Feeney. The $68 tour can also be customized.

Welcome to April’s Observer Food Monthly

Enjoy a tour of chefs’ favourite local shops, discover what’s new about the latest generation of wine bars and try Georgina Hayden’s moreish Greekish recipes

“I think of it as a fairyland of deliciousness,” says food writer Bee Wilson, author of The Secret of Cooking , about Culinaris, a deli in Cambridge. In this issue, we have asked chefs and cooks to tell us about their favourite local food shops . Not so much their everyday food shops, but where they go for something special, a perfect sourdough loaf or a bunch of Vietnamese greens. They lead us to hand-churned butter in the Tyne Valley, water spinach and chrysanthemum greens in Islington and Chinese aubergines in Glasgow, and tell us where to find smokies in Devon, fabulous croissants in York and a van selling fish fresh from the boats in Derry.

The reinvention of the wine bar was well overdue and is probably one of the best things to happen to eating and drinking in years. New wines, new food, new attitude. Tomé Morrissy-Swan has been watching the phenomenon and brings us up to date with the latest and best openings countrywide.

We have a whole host of recipes for you including an extract from Georgina Hayden’s new book, Greekish . We love her sticky aubergine and pomegranate tart, barbecued sea bass with pistachio and caper pesto and her phenomenal feta and white chocolate baklava cheesecake. The recipes are here and we have an interview with Georgie where she tells us, lovingly, about cooking for her sternest critic.

I have a collection of recipes for you too, for those spring days that turn out a bit chilly towards the end: baked tomatoes with chickpeas and curry leaves; a potato, salmon and spinach pie; pork with apples and cider; and onion soup with cheese toasts. We also have lunch with the globetrotting Simon Reeve, and Esme Young from the The Great British Sewing Bee shares her Life on Plate . And Jay has been researching the what, when and why of food crazes and explains why they are actually nothing new , just perhaps a little more crazy.
