whats wrong with that? it is good to have events planned in advanced so people who are interested in attending would have enough time to adjust their schedule if necessary.

yeah last time we started planning 2 months beforehand I think and we had a REALLY good turn out considering it wasnt the easiest place to get to. Actually we started talking about it in Feb... lol.

So really... this one wont be as long of a wait.


Although I want it now

LOL, that's such a bad photo, it looks like pita and dog piles.


Slightly more attractive:



For those who don't already know, they're basically sausages, similar to kebabs. They're usually made with beef, sometimes lamb. They're Bosnian/Serbian/Croatian depending on who you ask. Usually you eat them on a lepinja (like a pita) with onions and some sort of cheese or cream (the place we went last year had great kajmak, a mild yogurty-like cheese).

That's about it.

that picture makes it look really dumb actually..lol

For people that know...the picture I know is how its served. If anyone serves it to you different, its some kinda phony act and them trying to make it look pretty or some shit...it just wrong.

Its served in a lepina (the bread there) and with onions and kajmak.. just how it looks.

I would love to go to one of these. I have tried a few places that have them in Canada and some were ok, but not the real thing. I guess i sound all mightier than thou, but i dont meant to

Anyway, ummm yeah i'm in.

Oh and btw the REAL cevapi come from Bosnia. If someone tells you otherwise they are lying. To be specific, city of Travnik in Bosnia has the best cevapi in the world!

umm ok so now im done....oh and im in..


EDIT: P.S. Real cevapi are made with lamb. Not the main meat, but a little lamb is mixed with beef, specifically lamb fat. This gives it the flavour, taste, and texture.

Sure, I explained that myself in the post above, but they're usually not all burnt.

Yes yes, we had this debate for 10 pages on last year's roll call, must we open it up again?

based on your description, it kinda sounds like a different version of the greek gyros on a pita.

Gyros are flat strips of meat. Cevapi are sausages, more like kebabs. Exactly like kebabs, in fact. That's what the word derives from.

but it is a mixture of meat which is why i said that. i can see that they are kebabs... they look a lot like the kebabs that the persians make.

The bread traditionally called Somun, but the word has generally not been accepted outside of central Bosnia.

wrong! Sarajevo does

this is probably 25% of the recepie, there is set of items that are added that noone truly knows, there is a way to prepare them that noone truly knows, there is a specific way to BBQ them that noone really knows except for the few Bosnian families that run the restaurants downtown Sarajevo, and that have moved to some sorrounding cities.

Originally posted by chinamon and what is that thing that looks like a pogo stick without the stick?

that's called a karadjordjeva, or loosely translated to "royal schnitzel".. sometimes its jokingly referred to as the "girl's dream", lol.. anyways, its a rolled veal steak stuffed with kajmak: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kajmak

cevapi are on that plate only because that order is a mixed meat platter, otherwise cevapi are served separately in somun

The best cevapi I had was in Old Dubrovnik, served in the mixed meat platter, ughhhhh so good! Had some AMAZING krempita after for dessert...

If this meet is on May 22nd it would definately be tough for me to make it as DEMF is the next day...

May 21st? hahah

actually. May 22nd is still good.. sends the DEMFers off with enough food in their system to last them the weekend. Sounds like a win/win to me

The platter is no problem.
