Ćevabdžinica Hari

Ćevabdžinica Hari is a casual grill in Donja čaršija in Travnik, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, a historic town in the Lašva valley that was the seat of the Ottoman viziers of Bosnia for about two centuries. Travnik has its own tradition of ćevapi, and the town is often cited by Bosnians as having a version distinct from that of Sarajevo. The venue specialises in this local style. Travnik ćevapi are usually served in a flatbread called lepinja or somun, often with chopped onion and sometimes with kajmak, and the portions tend to be generous. Two dishes are named on the listing: Travnik ćevapi at about BAM 9 and ćevapi with kajmak at about BAM 11. Prices are low, and the menu is simple, with a main focus on grilled meat and bread, with yogurt or soft drinks as the typical accompaniment. The dining room is plain and functional, and the atmosphere is unpretentious and busy at midday, with local workers, families and visitors passing through the old market quarter. Noise levels are moderate. There is no dress code and no tasting menu, and there is no wine programme, although beer and soft drinks are usually available. Reservations are not needed. The grill is open daily from about 08:00 to 22:00, which makes it useful for a morning or late meal. Its position in the lower bazaar places it close to the town's other sights, including the old clock tower, the colourful mosque and the fortress, and many visitors stop for ćevapi between visits. For travellers touring Bosnia by road, a meal here offers an inexpensive way to taste a regional variation of the national dish away from the capital.
