I decided to have a taste of Toronto for my dinner tonight. It's not really a Toronto only meal, it's just where I was introduced to it.

I saw this a few days ago and wanted to try this. I love the cheese burek.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've tried quite a few different cheese combinations when making these and this one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteNever had these before, but they look and sound great!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't tried them either until my first trip to Toronto and loved them immediately.
Delete:)) this got my attention. Traditional meals in my country. Cevapcici look great..
