love their meat dishes, which I did not sample. Banitsa, a cheese bread, comes in a number of versions, all of them good. My favorite wine is Mavrud, Chase's favorite beer was Zagorka, and the national drink is rakia, a VERY fiery brandy. If you can get it
made with apricots, try it. I also recommend Vienskakafe (that's the pronunciation--no idea how it's spelled), a strong coffee with whipped cream and cinnamon that is basically a dessert.</span></div>
