Just wanted to assuage anyone's concerns about eating at Ilidzanka. Ate dinner there last night, and while I can't say I'll be eating Bosnian food every day of the week, it was a good, solid meal for anyone who considers "sausage" and "bread" two of the major food groups. The guy cooking it up for us was so gracious and sweet, I wanted to bear hug him.
We called to make sure the restaurant would be open, and he said he closed at 8, but he'd stick around for us. Sure enough, we show up around 7, and he's there...all by himself...waiting for us.
We ordered the cevapci, the mixed meat, a spinach burek and meat burek and the yogurt drink.
While waiting for the food, it occurred to us that beer might be in order, but it wasn't clear if the restaurant served it or allowed it brought in, so I peeked into the kitchen to ask. He got a little sheepish, fumbled around in the refrigerator, pulled out two beers and said, "I have two Heineken if you want." Awwwww. Now THAT'S service...offering up a couple of cold ones from your private stock.
As expected, the cevapci was excellent. The bread was soft and warm enough to roll up and sleep in. I probably wouldn't order the mixed meat again. The veal kabob and chicken were a bit tough. The bureks are not to be missed.
I don't know what the scene is during lunch or the afternoon, but we couldn't have asked for better treatment.
