Ćevabdžinica Dedo

Ćevabdžinica Dedo is a casual grill at Jakice Altarca 7 in the town of Jajce, in the central part of Bosnia and Herzegovina's Federation. Jajce is a historic town known for the waterfall where the Pliva river drops into the Vrbas, for its medieval fortress and for its catacombs, and it is a common stop for travellers between Sarajevo and the north-west of the country. The restaurant serves the grilled specialities of the Bosnian kitchen, with emphasis on ćevapi, the small minced-beef sausages cooked over charcoal. Two dishes are named on the listing: ćevapi in somun, with onion, at about BAM 9, and pljeskavica, a large grilled minced-meat patty and a close relative of ćevapi, at about BAM 10. Both are prepared quickly and priced well below restaurant levels, and they are usually eaten with yogurt, raw onion and bread. The dining room is simple, with plain tables and short waits, and the atmosphere is friendly and informal, with local diners and visitors who have stopped between sightseeing. Noise levels are moderate, and there is no dress code. Drinks are limited to soft drinks, yogurt, coffee and beer, with no wine programme of note. Reservations are not needed. The grill is open daily from about 09:00 to 22:00, covering lunch and dinner. Because Jajce is compact, the restaurant is within a short walk or drive of the waterfall and the old town walls, so it is easy to add to a half-day visit. Travellers on a road trip through central Bosnia often use it as a budget stop, and the price level makes it one of the cheaper ways to eat a full local meal in the town.
