TETEKS

Fastfood

Located on Macedonia Street, next to the Mother Teresa memorial house, this fast-food kiosk founded in 1970 (Тетекс) has become a small chain with seven addresses across the conurbation. Here, the tiny "motherhouse" offers burgers, sausages, pljeskavica and ćevapi to take away. Some of the branches are a little more spacious, with tables for eating in and a few salads, soups and even tavče gravče. This is notably the case at Teteks in Stara Čaršija's Pit Pazar, on the eastern shore.
