"Back toward the Hapsburg part of the main promenade, just around the corner from the Hotel Europa, is Hodzic, a hole-in-the-wall that has the best cevapi (spicy sausages) in the city."

"Without a doubt the best cevapi (small meat sausages served in flat bread) and Pljescavice (mince meat patties) in town! HIGHLY recommend this restaurant if you love meat!"

"His number one recommendation was Ćevabdžinica Special. And then, with the first bite, we became some of those that will say, “if you go to Sarajevo, you must eat the čevapi.” Must. Eat. Ćevapi."

"But the ćevapi was perfect: grilled, spiced meatballs served with brick-oven fired pita bread, a pile of onions, and a side of kajmak (a type of buttery, clotted cream). Highly unglamorous. Totally delicious."

"Meat has a nice barbecue smell, ćevapi are tiny, fatty, salty and juicy. They are really good."

"The bread is moist and used to pick up the meat. Each cevapi is soft meat simply flavored with salt and served with raw onions. There's a thick yogurt curd and another sauce I was unclear about. The hot peppers added chili, a little tanginess and contrast. Overall very tasty."
