Led by your guide, who's been the regular customer for 15 years, you'll hop across the Kalenić Farmers Market to taste the best and freshest burek, ajvar, kaymak, čvarci, ćevapi, baklava and Tito .
The bites are hand-picked from farmers and traditional producers we know by name.
You'll start your tasting exploration as the locals do: with phyllo pastry called burek, in a family-owned bakery that's been in business for 80 years. Next, you'll hop to the stall with the awarded ajvar, a pepper spread that grown the reputation of vegetable caviar and hear the family recipe.
Ajvar naturally leads to kaymak, a yummy dairy spread that contains nothing but milk and salt. The next taste is čvarci, pork belly scratchings that both crunch and melt on palates.
As for the famous Serbian grill, you'll hop to the locals' favorite place to taste ćevapi (grilled minced meat batons).
We conclude the tasting with the traditional desserts, telling of the influences of two diverse traditions: žito, grounded in Orthodox symbolic of rebirth and baklava, that arrived with the Ottomans, from the Middle East.
