Tatjana from Belgrade

About me I am an ecologist interested in our natural and social surroundings and how they interact. Besides that, as a real ecologist, I am also a passionate cyclist who loves to observe the environment, the one I live in, and the one I am getting to know from my bike. When it comes to my favourite spots, in Belgrade, where I live, but also in new cities that I visit, I am mostly drawn to gr...

Friteza Belgrade

Common local bakery

"The variety of choices is extensive, and you can't go wrong with any of them."

Bakeries are among the most common types of food stores in Belgrade, and in the rest of Serbia as well. This means that in any neighbourhood, you can find a nice bakery offering warm pastries, bread, or burek. In my neighbourhood, one of the most popular (as there are many) local bakeries is Friteza, a small corner bakery located near the botanical garden. Friteza always has warm, fresh pastries and very welcoming and polite staff, who are very skilled in dealing with a buzzy morning crowd. Even though the lines can get quite long, they're efficient, and you won't have to wait too long for your turn.

Every morning around breakfast time, a line forms in front of this bakery, with people waiting to come in and choose their morning meal. Friteza offers typical bakery products like meat or cheese burek, meat, cheese, and mushroom pies, various types of bread, and my favourite, warm pogačice. I never skip buying these when I visit. Other delicious options include papuča (which means "slipper") and triangles—puff pastry filled with cheese. The variety of choices is extensive, and you can't go wrong with any of them.

Additionally, this bakery is right across the street from Kafograf café, so you can enjoy your breakfast with a great cup of coffee.

The creamiest nut butters

In the back is where all the nut butters are being made, in-house and from the finest ingredients: hazelnuts, peanuts, coconuts and cashews.

Stovarište materijala

Once a warehouse

I usually opt for uštipci, doughnut-like sour dough pastry you can order either with cheese/ham or with jam/cream on the side.

Stari šlep

A comfy hideout on the water

"Stari šlep" is the perfect restaurant for the summer days/daze in Belgrade. Its name means 'the old barge' - I'd recommend a fish soup and salad here.

"Radecki club/restaurant" on Belgrade's Zemun quay: a true local oasis - no espresso here, just plain good old 'domestic' Turkish coffee. Lots to see here.
