Traditional Sweet Dishes
baklava
In Sofia, baklava is often made with coarsely chopped walnuts and a cinnamon-scented syrup, giving a heartier, less cloying sweetness than some other versions.
lokum
Lokum in Sofia often arrives scented with rosewater or lemon, and it became woven into Bulgarian sweet culture after being used as a favored diplomatic gift during Ottoman times.
tikvenik
Tikvenik is a seasonal favorite in Sofia, a thin phyllo roll filled with spiced pumpkin and walnuts, and it is a must at autumn and harvest celebrations.
Traditional Savory Dishes
banitsa
Banitsa is more than breakfast in Sofia, it is central to New Year celebrations when bakers tuck small charms and wishes into the layers so each bite can bring luck.
shopska salad
Shopska salad was created to showcase Bulgarian produce, its red, green, and white colors echo the national flag, and it quickly became a symbol of Bulgarian culinary identity.
sarmi
Sarmi, cabbage or vine leaves stuffed with rice and meat, are a Sofia staple at family gatherings, and rolling them is a communal ritual that can take an entire afternoon.
Traditional Beverages
rakia
Rakia is Bulgaria’s potent fruit brandy, commonly made from plums or grapes, and in Sofia it is customary to greet guests with a shot alongside warm toasts and local stories.
boza
Boza is a thick, mildly fermented millet drink with a sweet and tangy flavor, once carried through Sofia by vendors in wooden barrels and still loved as a nostalgic winter beverage.
wine
Bulgaria’s winemaking goes back to the Thracians, and vineyards around Sofia produce aromatic reds and crisp whites that have surprised international critics.

God verdi for Europa, museene er små, utelivet bra hvis du liker lokal rock og indie.

Ta med små leva-sedler, mange bakerier og markedsboder tar ikke kort og da ender du med å betale for mye.
Translated from English ·
Regnet ødela halvparten av turen, likte likevel bakeriene og den avslappede stemningen, følte meg trygg å gå om natten de fleste steder.
Translated from English ·
Fin miks av sovjetisk arkitektur og koselige gater, Alexander Nevsky-katedralen imponerende, maten solid, tre dager føltes perfekte.
Translated from English ·
Tilbrakte en uke og fant stadig billige måltider og skjulte parker, lokalbefolkningen var imøtekommende, ville komme tilbake om sommeren.
