What I Discovered This Week...Vol. 45


1. An American style diner right here in Belgrade

I actually discovered this place a couple of months ago because it's right in my neighborhood. I didn't want to tell you about it right then because I thought I should try it myself first. Well, I still haven't tried it. Not sure why. I guess I'm just not a huge burger person.

Nevertheless, the couple of people I know that have been there say it's great. It's a really small place, but when I passed by it the other day, it looked as though they bought the space next door, too.

They have everything you would expect a diner to have...hot dogs, burgers (with cheddar cheese even), shakes, fries, onion rings...and even small juke boxes on the tables. Apparently, all proceeds from the jukeboxes go to charity. One more important thing to note, they accept only cash.

They're located at Internacionalnih Brigada 22, near Hram Sveti Sava. Oh ya, and the name of the place is Intergalactic Diner. Check it out and let us know what you think!

They are open 24 hours...wow, just noticed that.

2. The whole BO things still baffles me

I know it's hot out, but I still don't understand how some people can stink so badly. I don't know, maybe it's actually a medical problem. In that case, excuse my ignorance. But I'd venture to guess that it's more likely poor hygiene and lack of deodorant. I just don't get it. Don't these people smell themselves?? Why not just put on a little deodorant and spare those around them an olfactory accost? And as I've mentioned before, there are natural options if that's what they're concerned with.

And here's even a recipe for DIY deodorant:

3. The offense of the salesclerk

Yesterday, I was at Usce and I purchased some contact solution at the pharmacy. Shortly after, however, I remembered that I already had a brand new bottle at home. That stuff ain't cheap (here in BG), plus it lasts me a while, so I went back to the pharmacy to return it. Thankfully, they didn't cause me any problems in regards to that but I did notice that the salesclerk doing the return seemed almost offended. Like she was taking it personally that I was returning something. So strange.

4. The chocolate tart at La Piazza is amazers.

That's all.

5. Severina's new song, Italiana, puts me in the mood to go out

I actually don't know how new the song is but they don't even have the music video for it out yet. In fact, they just filmed the spot last Friday at the new Splav Play. So stay tuned for that.

But for now, you can listen to a performance of it she did by clicking on the video below. And I can't help but point out that the dancing is horrible. Am I mean? Maybe I'm a little mean. But in this case, I'm also right ?

But just wondering about the diner. Since \"hamburger\" isn\'t the same there as here, does that make a difference?? Their site says they use raw meat, but what meat?? And I couldn\'t tell (or didn\'t see) if they are American?? I always thought there would be a niche for that there, as when my Serb friends come visit, they love going to diners. (and there goes MY idea for my next passage in life when I am there... LOL but I still have one idea)

@Linda I don\'t have the answers to your questions. I didn\'t stop in and ask. But by the looks of the menu, it\'s definitely VERY American. @George I was thinking the same thing...haha! @Keith which video are you referring to? @Vesna Me too!! Definitely helps to have someone to enjoy it with :-)
