Farewell, Acropolis
The average German citizen has already become accustomed to Greek skewers with greasy meat spinning in a vertical grill in recent years.

Maybe a little salt with that.
Not to mention the Balkan plates. You can find them in restaurants by the name of Dubrovnik or Ljubljana, The Funny Bosniac or in the Croatia, who comes from Macedonia and is Serbian, as he always emphasizes when he taps the beer for dinner.
Marshal Tito is the name of the most opulent garnish with plenty of Djuvec rice and a lousy mixture of spiced meat ingredients. Add Ayvar, a kind of Balkan sauce whose recipe can only be tasted. Each restaurant has its blend. Add slivovitz, and you feel like you're on the Adriatic in summer. At least it is as hot as in summer; the heating is running at full speed, it is good for business. The eternally same music does the rest. The atmosphere is dignified, and here and there a Drina Special Filter from Yugoslavia gets one infected.

Expensive is this currently at Kochlöffel, which also offers gyros: For DM 3.80 plus fries.
