Burek Olimpija – Feel the Taste of the Balkans, iconic street food

The first burek place on my list is Burek Olimpija, where you can taste authentic Balkan burek. But what exactly is burek? Burek (or börek) is a dish originating from Turkish cuisine, but it is very popular in many countries in the Balkan region, the popularity of which has most likely spread during the Ottoman Empire period, and in the last 50 years also in Slovenia. The dish is made of filo pastry, filled with meat or cheese (potatoes, cottage cheese, spinach, etc.), and seasoned with onion, salt, and pepper. Become part of the Ljubljana tradition and, like loyal fans of the Ljubljana football club Olimpija Ljubljana, satisfy yourself with it at the traditional selling point at Slovenska cesta 58 in Bavarski dvor near the Grand Plaza Hotel Ljubljana’s street food.
