Jazz Club Zemun Belgrade
Jazzy Tuesdays
Dušan from Belgrade
Belgrade has its ways to comfort you in winter while you lust for the next short sleeves and flip-flops season. And Jazz club Zemun is one of the aces up its sleeve.
It is located in a slightly unusual place - "Matica" Fire Station and every Tuesday it is packed with people of all ages and walks of life so that it looks like a huge kafana. It is probably the only place in town where you'll see groups of twenty-somethings and people old enough to be their (grand)parents, sitting next to each other, sharing bottles, dancing and enjoying the night out. So what brings all these folks together? Perhaps the celebration of life is one of the answers.
Each Tuesday, live jazz jam sessions are organized here, starting around 19:30, not lasting long after 22:00. They can feature renowned jazz virtuosos, and also a local star trumpet player living down the street.
"Matica" is located not far from Zemun center and quay. And it's not even the jazz, it's the spirit of people in their 80s you can see here, dancing and playing. It's the old lady who dances alone and is then joined by a youngster who could be her grandson.
The thing is, everybody here feels young.

Java Coffee
My go-to iced coffee place
It is a roastery so you can also buy single-origin coffee if you like. My favorite tasty snacks here are raw cakes made of oats and fruit.

Chernyi Cooperative Roasters
Industrial minimalism
This is a self-service, non-smoking place where you can get very nice, high-quality coffee. They also serve breakfast, and have amazing carrot cake!

Sač
The melting pot
"Sač" in Belgrade's Zemun is a restaurant known for its veal and lamb baked 'pod sačom' which makes them absolutely delicious. Curious location, too...

Ljutić
Backyard coolness
"Ljutić" Belgrade is hidden and there's little to announce that it's an ever-growing popular spot. But it's a low profile bar, and I love it for it.

Chillton
Chill at will
"Chillton" is not yet another classic Belgrade apartment club. The atmosphere is shabby, chilled, completely unpretentious. You can be yourself here...

Fijuk Sajam
A trade fair for loonies!
"Fijuk Sajam" in Belgrade is the place to be and see on the first Friday of each month -- here you can find just about anything creative under the sun...

Intergalactic Diner
True American space
Intergalactic Diner in Belgrade is like a restaurant from the '60s US Midwest. You can order a Comet Dog, a Deep Space Chick or Cosmic Pancakes there...

Beogradski Manijak
Deep down and dirty
"Beogradski manijak" in Belgrade gives everyone a much-needed respite. Everything about this bar is without a hint of pretense. Cheap booze, good music!

IMR - Old Factory
Back to socialism!
The old factory of IMR (or Industria Motora Rakovica) in Belgrade used to produce tractors... check out this old socialist façade white it's still there!

Makadam
Made in Serbia
Makadam Belgrade collects various items made in Serbia, like T-shirts, cosmetics, books, puzzles etc under one roof. I can't just not buy things here.

Marukoshi
Straight from Japan
The level of spiciness is just right, and the soups are filled with fresh, tasty vegetables and other ingredients, depending on which ramen you choose.
