Skopje: Old City House Restaraunt

So many blog posts have been in my draft folder - and this is one of them. One of our first weekends here in Skopje, as we were leaving the Opera and looking for a place for lunch, we stumbled upon this restaurant called Old City House.

We enjoyed a delicious lunch in this traditional setting.  We have been meaning to go back - but - have not found our way back here - yet.

Here is their website for more info about this historic home:

"Built in the distant 1836, this house is the oldest traditional house in Macedonia, which is still in function, a house which represents national wealth, which testifies to the history of the Macedonian house and its validity, house-museum protected by the “Bureau of National Treasure.”
Constructed of wood and stone, with original carved ceilings, this house was home to 6 generations of family Jovanovich, and today is a great national restaurant with excellent, warm and above all, old Macedonian traditional setting."

a history of the house is included in the menu

it doesn't matter how cold it is outside ... ice cream is always the dessert of choice
