Whole Roasted Lamb on the Beach? Serbs Push the Limits Again!
Imagine this: while all tourists in Greece pull out sandwiches and pâtés, Serbs bring a real, whole roasted lamb weighing 27 kilograms to the beach! Yes, you read that right. Two men in Pefkohori proudly carried the lamb first to a terrace, then served it on a beach mattress right by the shore.
Of course, this scene didn’t go unnoticed. On the Facebook group “Greece Info,” Aleksandar from Kuršumlija bragged about this unusual feast, asking if anyone else had brought a whole lamb to the seaside. Comments poured in — from praise and admiration to criticism and insults.
Some laughed and called Serbs the “real lamb brigade,” while others claimed they were “tomato tourists” who would never learn culture. One woman even admitted to bringing sarma, pork, dried meat, and rakija, and the Greek hosts were thrilled.
But not everything was rosy. Some thought this act was inappropriate and only drew attention from Greek customs officers, while one group member called Aleksandar a “fool” and said Serbs look like gypsies because of people like him.
Still, most sided with those enjoying the traditional feast on the beach, saying it’s part of Serbian tradition and all is fine as long as they have a good time.
This unusual story shows how ready Serbs are to bring a piece of their culture and food even on vacation, and how it can spark a range of reactions — from laughter to anger.
What about you? Would you bring a whole lamb to the beach or stick to a sandwich? Share your thoughts, maybe you have even crazier vacation stories!
Why does this matter?
This situation isn’t just a funny anecdote. It shows how culture and customs are passed on and how different people react to them. Serbs are known for their hospitality and love of good food, but is it always acceptable in other countries?
Also, this story reveals how social media has become a battleground of opinions where ordinary situations can turn into full-blown internet wars.
What do the comments say?
- “We are the real lamb brigade!”
- “The people will never learn culture.”
- “Just keep taking pictures, Greek customs will eat everything you have!”
- “Bravo for tradition, but maybe less noise next time.”
Conclusion
Serbs have once again shown they are masters of surprises. While others pull out sandwiches, they pull out a whole lamb! And while some celebrate, others get mad. But one thing is clear — this story will be talked about for a long time.
If you laughed or maybe got a bit annoyed, feel free to drop a comment. Who knows, maybe next year someone will bring a piglet to the beach!
