Ćevapi in Brioche Buns Are Back in Zagreb — And They’re Better Than Ever!
Imagine this: soft, buttery brioche buns stuffed with juicy ćevapi and fresh, creamy kajmak, all toasted to crispy perfection. Yes, you read that right! This culinary delight is back at the well-known Josip Juraj Strossmayer Square in Zagreb, at the Briocherie food stall, not just as a memory from Advent or Burger Festival, but as a permanent summer treat.
Why does this matter?
Ćevapi have been the kings of Balkan street food for years, but brioche buns? That’s a whole new level! Brioche is famous for its softness and rich buttery flavor, and when combined with traditional ćevapi and kajmak, you get a flavor explosion that will make you forget all other sandwiches.
The price? Not exactly cheap…
One of these buns costs 7 euros, which might be a bit more than you’re used to paying for ćevapi, but trust me, every euro is worth it. And if you’re more into sweets, Briocherie also offers brioche buns filled with Nutella and ice cream — chocolate or vanilla — for 6 euros. For those who want just ice cream, there are options for 4.50 euros, as well as iced matcha latte with or without strawberry flavor, costing between 4.80 and 5.80 euros. Kombucha in three flavors is available for 4 euros, for those who want a healthier refreshment.
Where and when?
This stall is part of the summer festival Fuliranje, running until July 6th, located at the well-known Josip Juraj Strossmayer Square. The festival features eight food stalls, but Briocherie is definitely the star of the show.
Why is this important for Zagreb?
Zagreb is known for its rich gastronomic scene, but often traditional dishes remain in their classic forms. This blend of traditional and modern shows that innovation is possible without losing authenticity. Plus, who doesn’t love a good ćevap? Now, with brioche buns, it’s a real treat for tourists and locals alike.
Conclusion
If you’re in Zagreb this summer, don’t miss the chance to try this unusual but fantastic combination. For 7 euros, you get a sandwich that will change your view of ćevapi forever. And if you prefer sweets, there are brioche buns with Nutella and ice cream, perfect for cooling down on hot days.
Honestly, who can still say a regular ćevap is boring? This one in brioche buns is like a VIP ticket to the world of street food. If you’ve already tried it, share your impressions — or if not, what are you waiting for? Drop a comment if you dare to try this combo!
Either way, Briocherie proves that traditional can be refreshed and elevated to a higher level. Zagreb, get ready for a gourmet boom!
