Top 10 things to eat when you are in Eastern Europe : Bon Appétit

Planning a trip to Europe ( Eastern Europe )  ?
Thinking about food ? Specially if you are Vegetarian /Eggetarian like me .
Do not know what to eat ?
So here I am presenting a small food guide based on my personal favourite.....make sure you do not miss any when you are there ...

1. Pizza 

Open air restaurants are very common in Europe and specially in summers when it's not raining. So do try some authentic local pizzas , pastas and  bruschetta with local cheese .You will love the taste of fresh vegetables and herbs and most important if you are vegetarian you too have options. Do do not forget to have a glass of wine with it.

2.  Chimney Cake

Next in the list is Chimney cake , a sour and sweet cake in a hollow cylindrical shape is available in so many flavors and will surely treat your taste buds. I strongly recommend the traditional Vanilla /Cinnamon flavor. One more variety includes trdelnik ice-cream...

3. Fresh Fruits /Shakes/ Smoothies 

If you are vegetarian and looking for some refreshing , healthy and organic fruits then this is the best place to have some local fruits and detoxify your self.  Again a wonderful option for vegan too.
