As in all resort towns of the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria, the leading trend in public catering is national cuisine. The basis of Bulgarian national cuisine consists of dishes from vegetables, meat and fish cooked on open fire. There are excellent quality dairy products, yogurts, cheeses.
Hot and cold soups are very popular in Bulgaria. For example, tarator (consisting of cucumbers, garlic, dill, walnuts and sour milk) perfectly quenches thirst even on the hottest day.
We recommend to try moussaka (a dish of potatoes, minced meat and sauce), selski drob (lamb liver with rice, onions and oil), kavarma (chopped meat with tomatoes), katino meze (hot appetizer with chopped pork, onions, mushrooms and spices).
Due to historical peculiarities Greek, Turkish traces were reflected in Bulgarian culture. The cuisine was not without this influence. In Sunny Beach you can taste not only traditional Bulgarian cuisine, but also European, Oriental, Japanese, Indian and Italian dishes.
Former tourists say that in Sunny Beach you should eat ice cream and specialty confectionery, halva and pumpkin baked with nuts and honey.
