Bosnia & Herzegovina ....Help

My 6th grader is doing a project on Bosnia and is gathering info on three cities in particular: Sarajevo, Mostar, and Bijeljina. What he is having a hard time finding at the Library, Barnes & Noble and online:
Name of 2 restaurants in each city
Type of local food offered on a menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner and what each meal would cost in convertible marka (BAM).

Can anyone here who has visited Bosnia & Herzegovina provide the answers or even better, do you know of a website where he can get these details?

Well, I just went to google, typed in -Bosnia Herzegovina restaurants - and straight away up came the first 10 of about 2,350,000 results.

Hit 'post reply' too soon.

I also googled sarajevo restaurants, and again up come lots of results.

In a quick search of one city, I can find several restaurants (albeit not prices/menus but then it's not my project), so I'm sure your child can do some research himself and find out plenty....

I found out this from a quick search:

FOOD
"The cuisine of Bosnia and Herzegovina is influenced by its Balkan neighbours.

Traditional food includes bread, soups, stews, kebabs, cevapcici (minced meat sausages), stuffed leaves (dolma and sarma) and stuffed vegetables (peppers). Pie, for example, meat, cheese and spinach is a favourite dish. Side dishes, such as sour cabbage, tomato and onion salad as well as yoghurt are often served.

Desserts eaten are fruit, pancakes, cakes (apple cake) and pastries (baklava).

Coffee is preferred strong with sugar. Wine and beer is produced locally."

So there you go....

I was quite intrigued by this thread, and having done a little further searching, the following website has some restaurant reviews, often with prices. Hope it helps a bit.
