Amazing food. Chef Sasha is a true artist. I like to call his restaurant a "one man show" since he really is the only one there; he will be your host, waiter, and chef. Important thing is to make a reservation. Even if there's nobody else in the restaurant, you will not be able to eat since Sasha carefully plans the meals as well as the amount of ingredients. Also, plan to spent at least two hours there (again because he's the only one there, it takes time to prepare each dish). There is also the option of ordering the food in advance. All in all, it's more than worth the time.

Vijećnica is the most extravagant building constructed in Sarajevo during Austro-Hungarian occupation and serves as a symbol of the meeting of world civilizations.
On the nights of August 25-26, 1992 during the last war, Vijećnica was set ablaze. Nearly 90% of the library's collection went up in flames and the building became a symbol of the Siege and tragedy of Sarajevo.
Vijećnica’s reconstruction got underway in 1996 and the official opening took place on May 9, 2014, the same day that Europe Day and the Day of Victory over Fascism are observed.
