1. Try a Bratislava specialty. Strudel, Lokša or Goose are highly recommended.
2. Get yourself a Punch - alcoholic or not. There are not only basic flavours but extras too as Lavender, Mojito or with a dash of Absinth.
3. If you seek for souvenir or just a small gift for yourself, feel for handcrafted items. There will be plenty!
4. Discover how locals celebrate this time of the year! There will be Christmas Plays, open air worships and Children's Christmas carol choirs at the main places especially on Advent Sundays.
5. Have fun!
Almost every food stall sells it, so choose carefully, because some stalls sell them when they are nigh-on bone dry. Go for a moist-looking one, and have it with the duck fat for the ultimate Slovak experience. However it is a salty crepe, it can be as gourmet as it gets. You can not only have it plain, with bryndza cottage or meat but also with Nutella. |
