Great local experience - The pita making experience was great! Dijana and her family were very welcoming and fun. They explained a little of the history of the food and area and gave fun instruction on how to make the pita. It was wonderful being able to eat our creations and learning a new skill. They were also very accommodating and open to working with my schedule. I would recommend this experience to any person or group that wants a taste of local cuisine, good conversation, and a unique experience in this wonderful country.

A true culinary experience! - Our pita making experience was amazing! To be in a lovely Montenegrin home being taught by a beautiful Montenegrin woman who is truly passionate about her heart was a phenomenal experience. She taught us the art of making and spreading the dough out to cover her dining room table without tearing it. Quite a skill. We made two types of pita. Then enjoyed a scrumptious meal in her beautiful garden. She even packed up the leftovers for us to take with us!
Highly recommend!!!

Great! - We had Mladen pick us at the center of Podgorica and took us in the local household where they have cooking lesson, we were offered with rakija and coffee. Lesson was interesting, i managed to make pita! After the pita was baked, we had a lunch with local products like cheese & prosciutto. The pita offered is with vegetables and cheese, but upon request you can also make meat version, which is called burek. Reccomend this place.
