There is no longer 15 minutes tolerance for paying parking in
parking zones!
The parking patrol officers will be only too ready to fine you
as soon as you leave your car, if they happen to be around. Over the
last
three months, when you sent an SMS message to pay for parking, you
often
received an SMS beginning with “Zao nam je…” meaning that the system
failed to accept your payment (example).
However, if you resent your SMS, you received an SMS confirming the
payment (“U BEOGRADU za vozilo…” -
example) giving the exact time when
your
parking would
expire (a detailed description of parking zones and
paying for
parking
in Belgrade is given in the guidebook). New parking
rates: Red zone - 41 dinars; Yellow zone
- 29 dinars;
Green zone -
23 dinars.

● We recommend Serbian specialties at "Suri" Restaurant. This is the
most
expensive of all restaurants serving traditional Serbian dishes
(price range
for main courses EUR 10-13). We suggest that you set aside at least
two
hours for a visit to this restaurant and try "gibanica" with "kiselo
mleko"
(thick natural yoghurt), "Momacki bokčaluk", "Suri ćevapčići" and
(if you are
still hungry) "jagnjetina ispod sača" (lamb meat roasted under an
iron bell
on coal and ashes). A glass of raspberry of blueberry juice is a
must order.
It will cost you the price of a whiskey, but it will be about the
best juice you
have ever had in you life. For a finale, if you are in a larger
crowd, order
"Čudo Mida Klisurac" pancakes, but ask for one serving only! This
dessert
costs like a main-course dish, but is large enough to indulge half a
dozen
people. Bulevar Zorana Đinđića 44a, Tel: 3110-943. |
● Take-away home-made dishes (a selection of soups and meat and
vegetable based home-made dishes): No. 10 Palmotićeva Street
(corner
with Svetogorska Street, E7 quadrant on our map of Belgrade).
Tel: 3236-284
● “Halo Plus” is a new prepaid scratch card that allows
international calls
to be made from residential or public phones at lower rates. There
are
three types of the card: for overseas calls, for calls to European

and for calls to the countries of the former Yugoslavia (with
exception of
Montenegro). On the back of the card you can find the
instructions for use
in English.
The card expires 60 days after first use. You can buy them at
newsagents.
They cost 600 dinars and for that money you can talk for about 29
minutes
to overseas countries, 40 minutes to European countries, and 44
minutes
to the countries of the former Yugoslavia.
● The new code for national currency, Serbian dinar, is RSD (instead
of
CSD) and its numeric code is 941.
●
1 EUR is
