    Slovakian cuisine is delicious but also heavy. Cabbage is a main vegetable along with potatoes, and salads. Dumplings filled with cheese, Veal, potatoe are common. As is gnocchi with sheep's cheese which tastes a bit like a sour cream base. Bacon is also common here as a garnish or food topping. Eggs are common for breakfast and they have some sausages as well. Pepers and onions are prevelant. Their mushroom soup was perhaps our favorite meal it was delicious. Most liquors are quite strong and originate in the high tatras mountains to the north as a means to keep warm in the winter. Beer and wine are also common. Cafes were plentiful in the town of kosice and we enjoyed relaxing the days away sipping expresso in outdoor terraces.Read more
