Greetings From Serbia - Ciao for Now

It is my last night in Belgrade. I've been back since Tuesday but have been so crazy busy that I haven't been able to blog. Actually I may write a back blog or two when I get home. Especially since I discovered snacks and junk food on this trip and they deserve a blog.

My friends took me to a lovely restaurant in the Center tonight. Little Bay has this location in Belgrade and five in London. Check out the gallery page on the London site. The menu was lovely, the food excellent, the prices really (really really) low, and the venue was brilliant. I think this is my new favorite restaurant of all restaurants.

Not that you could tell from the name of the place, but Little Bay is an opera-themed restaurant. It has two levels, the bottom levels regualr tables, but teh top level, which actually only rims the restaurant, is all opera-style boxes! Frescoes, gilding, red velvet curtains, it's an absolute scream. They play a very pleasing variety of classical music and opera arias, and have live musicians and roving opera singers. Seriously, check out the gallery on the London site. If you like opera, fancy theatres, good food, and ever happen to be in either Belgrade or London, this restaurant is totally worth the trip.

So thank you to my friends, new and old, for making this yet another wonderful experience. I know I'll get to come back to Belgrade at least once, if not twice this year and I'm already looking forward to it.
