Fodor's Expert Review Baranjska Kuća
Family-run Baranjska Kuća, located in the village of Karanac, is not only one of Slavonia's best restaurants, but it's also one of the region's must-see sights for its traditional music and decor, lively atmosphere, and interesting ethnographic museum out back. Locals and visitors fill up large wooden tables around the garden, the air fragrant with smoke from outdoor firepits where cooks make čvarci, digging into big bowls of catfish perkelt, bean stew, and hearty čobanac with homemade noodles. Leave time after lunch to wander around the impressive Street of Forgotten Times, an outdoor ethnographic museum that brings to life the bygone era with full-sized reconstructions of barber shops, woodworking sheds, and even pubs. There are also 20 well-appointed rooms in the inn around the corner, which include a fantastic homemade breakfast.
