Dayana

Plovdiv


This popular mini-chain of restaurants has a huge menu that's strong on meat, whether grilled, roasted or satch (sizzled with vegetables on a hotplate). Order the 'trident', a triple spear of meat skewers, if you dare; but Dayana's egg and pancake dishes are easily as filling. There's another branch at ul Sveta Petka 2.
