So, which dish do you want to try in Bulgaria?
Which dish has impressed you the most and when did you discover it?

I was blessed to be invited to lunch at my neighbour's home for the last Independence Day. The meal started with shopska salad and rakia. A wonderful combination! Then a bean soup with chicken, eaten with bread enriched with eggs and sirene. And then apple cake. Of course, I was pushed to have second helpings of everything.

All home made, and all amazing! My best meal in Bulgaria so far!

Second best was a slice of spinach and sirene pizza, eaten outdoors in Varna. The girl selling the pizza apologised that it was 2 lev a slice. No need to apologise, as the slices were huge. No other topping, just spinach and sirene. So simple and so delicious.

I absolutely love cornflake chicken, Shopska salad and perlenka. I love the cuisine there. Tomatoes are the best tasting in the world!

@Mickael Hello, we have a couple of very good experiences: Midalidare Restaurant in Mogilovo, Le Chef and Anthony麓s Pub (phantastic Pizza) in Stara Zagora.
