Winter Dinner At Renaissance

This top photo is not ice cream - it's a very delicious spreadable cheese. The rest of the food is always just as good at Renaissance. For fifteen euro, it's all you can eat plus wine and raki. When we went in January, there was a most delicious veal stew that we didn't get a photo of. This is Andreas' favorite restaurant in Kosovo, and with good reason.

In From The Snow

It was hard to pull the Sharr in from the snow, but after a couple hours she did come inside. Then she went out again. Winter is her favorite time of year.
