What Pogaca is

Round savoury bread with a soft crumb, shared at the table.

Pogaca is listed as a bakery item in the Serbia guide, where the index tags it vegetarian and mild. The index uses those labels to make an unfamiliar menu legible. What it cannot tell you is how this particular kitchen seasons, fries or plates the dish, so leave room to ask.

Where to find Pogaca

Pogaca is listed as nationwide rather than tied to one city, so it is a safe thing to look for wherever you land in Serbia. Bakeries sell out early, so go in the morning and follow the queue rather than the signboard.

The Serbia guide also covers 5 dishes and 2 bakery items; open the country page for the full menu and the other places in the index.

Dietary notes

  • Vegetarian tag: the indexed dish contains no meat or fish, but confirm stock, sauces and cooking fats with the kitchen.

How to order it

  • The indexed version is mild. Heat levels still vary by kitchen, so ask for chilli or sauce on the side.
  • Ask for the price before ordering, especially where the menu lists market price or sells by weight.
