Slovenes love Balkan fast food, and cevapcici is the classic—the hamburger of the Balkans. Of Turkish origin, cevapi are small sausage-shaped meatballs made of ground meat and are super good and easy to like—if you like burgers, you’ll like these. This episode is all about this, the most popular fast food in Slovenia. You'll hear from Peter Hajdu, Slovenia's grill guru, and Mate Jankovic, Croatia's most famous chef. And…I recommend a “Cevapcici Crawl” to taste the best of Ljubljana. I've outlined an itinerary to do a walk through Ljubljana sampling cevapi along the way. The more friends the merrier. Stops include: Bascarsija, Chevap, Sarajevo 84, Leskovaski Zar, Das Ist Walter, Saraj, Cad, Dubocica, Savska, Portal, Hallo Leskovac...and maybe some surprises.

This episode is sponsored by Odprta Kuhna, a great place to grab cevapi on Fridays during the tourist season, and by Hotel Mrak, where I like to stay when cevaping my way around Ljubljana.
