Dining Al Fresco By The Danube

Pančevo is an incredible dining and travelling destination by the River Danube. Let’s explore its culinary culture with Eatagram.

Pančevo dates back to ancient times. Its gastronomic heritage was shaped by the Celtic, Slavic, Roman, Hungarian, Austrian, Turkish, Tatar and German cuisines. This resulted in an incredible multicultural fusion with a distinct Balkan base.

The city benefits from the surrounding fertile soils which provide local restaurants with high quality fresh ingredients. In Pančevo, hearty and flavorful dishes are staples of the city’s diet.

As you start exploring the culinary scene of Pančevo, be sure to try the iconic sarma. These delicate cabbage rolls are filled with a mix of minced meat, rice, and spices, and slow-cooked in a rich tomato sauce. Absolutely worth trying!

Pančevo is a paradise for barbecue enthusiasts. They can luxuriate in a wide range of grilled meat dishes. Not sure what to opt with? Go with ćevapi, spicy minced meat sausages, or pljeskavica, delicious grilled meat patties. They are basically served with ajvar, a spicy red pepper spread. This spread is a go-to, especially with freshly baked bread and stews.

Can’t decide on a dessert? We absolutely recommend local doughnuts called krofne. They come with various fillings and are dusted with sugar powder. And don’t forget to savor the divine baklava with honey syrup and chopped nuts inside.

Dairy products enthusiasts will feel at home in Novi Pazar with its wealth of cheeses and dairy spreads. Be sure to sample creamy kajmak and tangy kaçar, aged sheep cheese with Turkish origin. If you prefer delicate cheese, beli sir would be a perfect choice.

We can say for sure, Pančevo won’t disappoint you.
