As recommended on TripAdvisor
Although a small country, situated in the south-east part of Europe, Bulgaria is defined by its natural variety - mountains, plains, seas, rivers, lakes and even a small desert. The country is known as the Land of Roses, as The Rose Valley produces 70% of the world's rose oil. Here at Vanca's restaurant we also offer small bottles of rose oil.
Planning a trip to Bulgaria?
Bulgarian is one of the oldest Slavic languages. The Cyrillic alphabet, that was invented in Bulgaria in the middle of the 10th century, is still used by many slavic countries through out Europe and Asia. A fun fact: here nodding your head in the up-and-down direction means "no" and nodding from side to side means "yes".
Music and dances are very important for the Bulgarian culture. There are many different traditional folk dances as the Horo and Rutchenitsa, danced hand in hand in open circles.
Chef Vanca's elegant Bulgarian cuisine from South-East Europe, is a mix of Oriental Grill with Mediterranean nuances.
Perhaps the most famous of all is the Bulgarian Shopska Salad (tomato, cucumber, green peppers, onion and shredded Feta Cheese) and our Bulgarian house Yoghurt.
