Trahana (meat)
Trahana is a traditional Bosnian soup with a deeply flavourful beef and a lamb broth enriched with tiny, tangy, hand-made dumpling-like noodles made from a fermented and dried mixture of grains & yogurt.

Wild Mushroom Soup (vegetarian)
A rustic, creamy mushroom soup with a mix of wild, dried and fresh mushrooms and herbs.
Sarme & Maslenica (Beef & Lamb -or- Vegan)
A classic dish across the Balkans, Bosnian cabbage rolls (Sarme) are stuffed with a mix of ground and smoked meat, rice and spices, wrapped in cabbage leaves from whole heads of cabbage that have been patiently pickled by natural fermentation. They are slow-cooked in a tomato broth with smoked lamb bones, and finished with a sizzling butter-based roux. These are served with wedges of maslenica, a giant braided bread traditionally broken up at the table for sharing.
#Vegan cabbage rolls also available, stuffed with smoked tempeh, tofu, sweet potato, mushrooms & rice.
Baklava
Delicate baked sweets made with thin, buttery phyllo pastry, walnuts and honey, the Bosnian version is outrageously delicious.
