Hello,here is my story-comment:
The most suspicious mountain menu I ever survived
After a long walk up the hill, my wife and I reached that level of hunger where you stop being a human and become a food-hunting animal.
There was only one restaurant within 5 km. No options. No escape. Just destiny.
We sat down. I opened the menu.
And my eyes went wide.
This wasn’t a menu… this was a psychological test.
First thing they brought was the soup.
“Grandma’s Secret Soup.”
Alright, sounds safe. Classic. Comfort food. No risk.
Then I looked closer.
The “secret” turned out to be tomato soup… with some weird floating leaves that looked like oregano — which I absolutely don’t like — and random peppercorns casually swimming around like they pay rent there.
I realized that secret means: “you’re not supposed to ask questions.”
Then came the main course options.
And that’s when things escalated quickly.
I saw something called:
“Maiden’s Joy Sausage.”
Now… I didn’t know if I should order it or apologize to it.
Curiosity won.
When they brought it… I understood the name.
Long. Slightly spicy. Suspiciously confident on the plate.
I just nodded like, “okay… I see what’s going on here.”
But the real surprise?
“Maiden’s Tears Meatballs.”
I tried them.
Big mistake.
So spicy, full of onions… I started crying immediately. Not emotional crying — survival crying.
At one point I wasn’t even eating anymore, I was negotiating with the plate.
Meanwhile my wife played it safe… or so she thought.
She ordered something called:
“Đorđe’s Stuffed Schnitzel.”
Or maybe it was a typo. Maybe it wasn’t.
Because on the menu there was also something like “Fish-Đorđe” version… which made even less sense.
Anyway, it turned out to be stuffed, rolled, fried meat… with fish involved somehow. Vegetarian logic left the chat.
At this point I needed something to reset my entire existence.
So I ordered a Lav beer.
And I swear, as I was opening it, I expected to hear a lion roar somewhere in the distance.
Luckily… no lion. Just trauma and silence.
In the end, we were full.
Not just from the food — but from the whole experience.
The restaurant clearly had a very… specific sense of humor.
But hey… at least the walk on the mountain stayed a beautiful memory.
The menu?
That’s a story I’ll never forget.
