     When I arrived in Sarajevo after an entire day on an extraordinarily gross train, I was cranky, dirty, and really darn hungry. It was a Sunday night, and I didn’t realize how many places would be closed. I was ready and willing to go to any kind of restaurant or café, no matter what they had for me, as long as it was open. We couldn’t find anything. For hours, we wandered, losing hope, sanity, and patience. Finally, we peeked down an alley and saw a light on. It was at Tavola, an Italian restaurant. They were open! HALLELUJAH!
     I didn’t care that I usually have no luck at Italian restaurants, as their menus are usually heavy with meat and pasta made with eggs. I would have been happy with white bread and an iceberg salad. I just needed food!
     However, Tavola had a great vegetarian-friendly menu, and a very helpful staff. I would go back here in a heartbeat.

     To start, I ordered a mixed salad, expecting the usual subpar mix of lettuce, onion, and tomato. What I received was like heaven – greens, cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, peppers, corn, and beans! BEANS! You really miss beans when you don’t get them for awhile. I felt better instantly. No picture exists of this salad, because it only existed for about 4 seconds before I went all velociraptor on it.

     I assumed I wouldn’t be having any sort of pasta, but I saw that they had a gnocchi dish, which should be made without egg, especially if I’m coming. I asked the waiter to check with the kitchen if a) it contained egg or dairy products, and b) if not, if that dish could be made without any of the various types of meat on top. The answers came back – no and yes! Woohoo! I mean, as long as they were the answers in the correct order, I was ecstatic! <\/p>\n
     The gnocchi was so delicious, and I think it was more than just my ravenous hunger that decided that. It was such a lovely dinner, with the nicest staff. Despite the rocky prelude, it was a great start to Sarajevo.
