The Best Balkan Street Food in Vienna 2023
At Merak, the charcoal grill becomes the stage for genuine Balkan barbecue art. Flames, smoke and spicy flavours surround cevapcici, pljeskavica & co, which only come to perfection with a scoop of homemade kajmak. The aroma alone is a real promise of enjoyment.
An insider tip for anyone looking for authentic börek outside the Balkans. At the centre of the action are the freshly baked puff pastry rolls - in the morning the display case is still full to bursting, in the evening everything is usually completely sold out. Yoghurt is a traditional accompaniment.
Authentic Balkan cuisine with specialities from the charcoal grill, oven-fresh bread and exclusively home-made dishes. They don't skimp on the quality of the meat - the spare ribs are an absolute highlight: savoury, smoky, juicy and served with a variety of sauces.
The meat comes fresh from the in-house butchery every day, providing the perfect basis for the hearty Balkan grill specialities. Of course, the cevapcici are a top priority. The ambience deliberately emphasises elegance and clear lines - anything but rustic.
The ideal snack for on the go! This fine puff pastry art is made according to a special recipe from Bosnia: wafer-thin, crispy, buttery and traditionally filled with cheese, spinach or minced meat. But Börek can also be sweet - with apple or sour cherries, for example.
A real insider tip for fans of Balkan cuisine: the ambience is rustic, cosy and absolutely authentic. They serve what belongs on the grill - cevapcici, pljeskavica, sausages and kebabs. Hearty, fresh and the savoury aroma in the air is unique. It doesn't get more original than this. Dobar tek!.
