What I Love About Bulgaria....So Far


Shopska Salad

It's as simple as chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, and shopska cheese, with optional addition of onions, mushrooms, and garlic. I also drizzle some olive oil and fresh lemon juice with a sprinkle of salt and pepper over the colorful diced vegetables and dig right in! It's a light but filling salad, made possible by open air markets that allow me to buy fresh ingredients weekly, if not daily.



These pictures are not from my own kitchen, but rather a local restaurant, which featured such interesting cocktails, like the "American Dream," (pictured below) and a whole section dedicated to Owen's meals (typographical/translational error also pictured below):
