In Belgrade, baklava is an Ottoman-era favorite, layered with finely chopped walnuts and soaked in honeyed syrup until the pastry shimmers, making it a festival and café staple.

Krofne are pillowy, deep-fried doughnuts often filled with jam or custard, enjoyed hot from street stalls and closely linked to New Year celebrations and family gatherings in Belgrade.

Palačinke are paper-thin crepes rolled with chocolate, jam, or kajmak, and Belgraders adore them as a late-night snack or a quick sweet to eat on the go.

Ćevapi are small grilled meat sausages served in soft somun bread with raw onions and ajvar, and Belgrade’s ćevabdžinice are famous for perfect charring and addictive simplicity.

Sarma are cabbage leaves stuffed with rice and spiced meat, slow-simmered until deeply savory, and they taste even better the next day, so they are a winter feasting classic in Belgrade.

Pljeskavica is a large, seasoned meat patty often topped with kajmak or onions and served in lepinja bread, and Belgrade eateries pride themselves on making the juiciest, most flavorful versions.

Rakija is the ubiquitous fruit brandy Belgraders offer as a sign of hospitality, and many households keep homemade rakija for toasts, healing sips, and special gifts.

Slivovitz, or šljivovica, is the plum rakija beloved in Belgrade, it can be fiery when young and silkier when aged in oak, and it plays a central role in weddings and important toasts.

Serbian coffee is brewed like Turkish coffee, served in small cups with the grounds left inside, and reading the coffee grounds is a playful custom after long conversations.
