A walk from the city centre to the restaurant takes around 40 minutes (which is some really good working-out after dinner), though parking for bikes and cars is always available. The outdoor dining area is just besides a small waterfall, so it's a very relaxing experience compared to those restaurants near the city centre of Jajce. Their dishes of mixed grilled fish and grilled meat are great in portion (enough even if you skip lunch during the day) and taste really good. Also, try their soups (the ones with tomato or with their homemade noodles) as they are traditional Bosnian dishes.

Had dinner at this lovely place, more or less on top of one of the city gates to Jajce. The restaurant is inside (and with a roof Terrace on top) of one of the most beautiful historic houses of the Ottoman period remaining in the city.
The menu is short, simply go for the national dish Cevapcici and enjoy... tasty, fresh meat with lovely smoke aroma inside a soft and tender homemade pita bread. Wonderful!

We went to Fontana Restoran by chance: we weren't sure about where to eat and we kind of stumpled on this place. To find it: if the mosque is on your left you have to turn right before the gate at the end of the old town. It's inbetween some buildings, in a little courtyard (with a public Fountain...yes, hence the name, I suppose). Then you have to climb some stairs.
The place is not very big but comfortable and with a cosy little balcony (where we had dinner). We had two dishes of cevapcici, water, two teas, one yogurt as side dish, one dessert (a biscuit with honey - I can't remember the name), and two bosanka kafas. It was good and the price was almost hard to believe: 14 BAM = 7 euros!

I wandered along Jajce's main drag around 7 pm looking for an eatery. There are half a dozen places, and there were people at most of them — having drinks. Clearly the evening repast doesn't begin at such an early hour.
I picked this place on the way back because it didn't have any horrible piped music, and because the lady had given me a nice, friendly smile as I walked by. I ordered a "Vienna style veal schnitzel" and some wine. They don't accept cards, and as I was due to drive out of Bosnia & Herzegovina next day, I was deliberately down to my last 23 marks. This was nicely enough for said schnitzel and two 200mL bottles of red wine.
As soon as I'd ordered, she put on some piped music. Oh, well. She spoke no English, so I had to resort to a bit of pointing and grunting. There were still no other customers, and I got the impression that my waitress was also the chef.
The schnitzel arrived, with chips, bread, tomato sauce and salad — for "salad", read "shredded lettuce". There's very little chance this place will get a Michelin star any time soon, but it was a good, honest meal and it did the job. Everything that was supposed to be hot was, and the chips were nice and crisp.
As I walked back to my lodgings, around 8 pm, there was still no one eating at any of the other places — still just drinks. Strange.

We both ate mixed meat plate which was ok, nothing really special. The service was a bit slow and it felt like the waitor "hushed" us out...
6. Buregdzinica Bedem

Bureket ugye mindenhol lehet kapni Boszniában, és általában jó is az összes, de talán kiemelkednek azok, amelyek a buregdžinica-kban készülnek. Itt ugyanis általában tényleg nincs más, csak burek. Így a Bedemben is, a tulajdonos bácsika hosszú évtizedek óta készíti a bureket az üzlet felett az emeleten. Harangban, tepsiben. Ahogy kell, minden kg-re van. A sima burek a húsos, a sirom a túrós, de van spenótos (sóskás-túrós) és krumplis is. Mellé van ugyan némi víz, néha üdítő, de együnk úgy, ahogy a helyiek: kérjünk ivójoghurtot hozzá! Szóval ha igaz, tradicionális ételt akarunk bosnyák módra reggelizni/ebédelni, itt a helyünk. Nyilván csak bosnyákul beszélnek, de a bácsi tényleg aranyos, szóval kézzel lábbal meg tudjuk értetni magunkat.
