We stopped for a snack at this sweet shop on the main drag. We got a piece of sticky-sweet kadaif and a hunk of halvah (it’s sold by the kilo; we, being unable to speak Bosnian, simply motioned for a small slice). Kadaif is made from shredded phyllo dough, stuffed with nuts (or sometimes cheese), and soaked in sugar syrup. Extremely sweet, extremely good.
