Kafana

Serbian for neighborhood restaurant, this vaguely ski-lodge-esque joint plates up pig-heavy dishes like Rolovane Suve Sljive (walnut-stuffed prunes rolled in bacon) and Karadjordjeva (pan-fried schnitzel rolled with ham), plus desserts like Zito, made from "wheat sugar nuts" (curiously, this was also Chuck's penal handle).

Drink: Free Beer Fridays

Free Beer Fridays

On Fridays this summer, let your friends know you're drinking at a participating bar via this cell/smartphone social networking service, and you'll also receive a texted receipt. Show it to the bartender and get free drafts until the end of the promotion -- or until it's proven that the worst way to get free drinks is to tell a social network to come impede your acquisition of free drinks.
