MUST TRY Macedonian Food in SKOPJE & LAKE OHRID (You’ll Be SHOCKED)

We just arrived in North Macedonia — and what better way to discover a new country than through its food?

In this video, we kick things off in the capital, Skopje, where we search for traditional treats and classic Balkan flavours. Then we head south to the stunning town of Ohrid for lakeside bites and more authentic Macedonian dishes.

Here’s what we tried:

Traditional almond treats from Rigara Slatkarnica (Skopje's answer to macaroons)

Tavče gravče – Macedonia’s beloved baked beans

Ćevapi – classic grilled kebabs

A massive Macedonian burger (pljeskavica) by Lake Ohrid

Fresh burek filled with cheese

Mekici – Macedonia’s soft, fried doughnuts

Ravanija – a traditional semolina cake soaked in syrup

We also share what surprised us most about North Macedonia’s vibe, people, and food culture.

Whether you’re planning a visit or just love discovering hidden food gems around the world, this video offers a raw and real taste of the Balkans.
