| - Vegetarians need not apply; the only salad you will find here is a pile of grilled onions! Seriously, this place is comfort food heaven. I ordered a chicken sandwich, a large cevapi (which I can only think means "delicious spicy meat fingers" in Bosnian) sandwich, a cheese pita, and a spinach pita. I can't really put my finger on what makes the food so good, other than it's straight up comfort food that sticks to your ribs and makes you wish all pants came with elastic waistbands.
The restaurant itself is out of this world; no seriously, it's like walking into some small Bosnian hole-in-the-wall. What it lacks in amenities it makes up in character; you've got soccer playing on the TV and this 70's eastern European techno playing in the background while a bunch of men chat away in the back of the shop. The best way to describe it is Star Wars Cantina scene meets National Geographic. Don't worry about feeling like an outsider, nobody pays attention to the confused and worried look on your face unless it's the gracious and friendly host. ;)
Anyway, back to the food. The chicken sandwich was perfectly seasoned and cooked, while the meaty Bosnian sausages put Jimmy Dean and his family to shame. I recommend using the Kobayashi method on these dishes; meat first, bread second. Oh, and don't forget to ask for some ajvar (tart red-pepper sauce) to dress your sausages with. The bread shouldn't be ignored though since it is thick, rich, and hearty. The pitas are not pitas in the Middle-Eastern/Greek sense, they're more like stuffed fillo pies and they're just as delicious as the rest of the entrees. By the way, the portions are quite large and make a Hungry Man frozen dinner look (and taste) like a McD's Happy Meal. Actually, if McD could make their McNuggets even remotely taste like Sarajevo's cevapi, they would rule the world.
In all seriousness though, this is simply awesome comfort food at an uber affordable price. Although I must admit that I was so in love with my plate that I may have snarled and showed my teeth to innocent bystanders who got too close. Regardless, I definitely recommend this place if you want to try something (as Cheech and Chong would say) that's the same as your favorite comfort food but different. I would write more but the food coma has completely taken me over.
Post Scriptum: I believe my stomach just did a happy dance and passed out.
