We are a small country and small nation as a whole, but I feel that we are super underrated in comparison to the other European countries. Unlike them, we have EVERYTHING to offer - good food, culture, some of the oldest history as well as beaches, mountains, forests, rivers, lakes and more! Truly a hidden gem if you ask me (totally not biased at all lol).

Just one fact about cheese it is the Feta cheese actually represents a Bulgarian cheese and it’s a so many variations to make that cheese and the bacteria is called Lactose Bacillus Bulgaris

Very positive, good vibe ppl. Few foreigners consider tarator a soup, especially in all inclusives they dont know what to make of it and use it as a sauce(more so the with garlic variety). Also the boza was a huge surprise, few tourists even consider trying it and even less r actually liking it. Im pretty sure your order was mixed up, probably pointing in the menu, there r exceptions but usually kashkaval pane is in a single block, while the sirene is on bites. As u could see on the pizza kashkaval melts when heated and when paniran(breaded) it got crispy on the outside and chewy to gooey on the inside.

As a native from Sofia, I could say that "Skara Bar" is one of the few places that you can still have a good Bulgarian barbecue. I guess, you found the difference between "Skara Bar" and the street food. Good choice!

You need to strongly shake Ayran before you drink it. Its great for washing the Banitsa down your throat. Its indeed a bit unhealthy breakfast cause of the cooking oil but at least there is nothing chemical or lab made inside both the meal and the drink. Its clean and its one of the best breakfasts you can get in Bulgaria on foot when you're on your way to work in the morning but you need to put something in your stomach fast. Good luck and stay safe. 😊

You have to drink the yogurt drink while eating the banitsa, drinking it by itself may put you off a little when you try it for the first time, but once you get used to it, you will not be willing to eat your banitsa without it, also it is the best drink to have when it is hot and you are dehydrated.

Dunavia cheese is the Bulgarian version of the feta cheese. What you are eating is probably not even Bulgarian White cheese, but cottage cheese which is not exactly cottage but there is no other name for it, In Bulgarian it is called Izvara (Извара). They put it because it's cheaper but still tasty. There are some places where they specify what they put in, whether white cheese or cottage and most of the time when the banitsa is with white cheese it is more expensive.
