Run by two chef brothers (one of whom used to be head chef at the reputable Kempinski Panorama), Sage Bistro is a rustic restaurant that serves traditional Italian cuisine in an intimate setting. Pasta is freshly made in-house, and the restaurant is especially know for its superb seafood.
Dining
Due to its geographical location and its history of settlement, Bulgarian cooking is a mixture of several cuisines. Look out for Shopska Salad or the Turkish-influenced Kebapcheta and Kyufteta (spiced minced meat, molded and grilled). Do not miss out on a hearty bowl of Kavarma and if there is room left, be sure to try the renowned Bulgarian yoghurt.
