When we got there you just go in and sit down. All this place makes is Cevapci so you tell them how many you want and what you want to drink (I had two and a coke). It was a small place and there is no back kitchen area. They cook everything right behind the counter in a brick oven. They serve you the sausages in what we would call pita bread (which has also been cooked in their brick oven) along with a small pile of onions, and that is it. You eat the sausages with a fork and then pull the break apart and eat that. And, well, it is delicious.

Cevapci
I don't think it is any surprise that I like to eat. With the exception of a few dairy products there really hasn't been anything that I have eaten here that I haven't liked. A few weeks ago the people that I am staying with said there is a place in Old Town that I had to go to. They said they have what is called Cevapci (chi-va-chi-chi) or as I now like to call them, smoked sausages. They told me this is a very famous food here in Sarajevo (and the entire region) and there is a place in Old Town that is famous for them.

So, are you cooking for yourself at home? Is it hard getting used to what's available to cook?

The family that I am basically living with cooks for me. A lot of the food is similar to what we have back home. The one big difference is anything dairy. I try to avoid dairy.
