Dubrovnik's 9-Euro Burek Sparks Debate: Is 'Holy Burek' Worth the Price Tag?

Dubrovnik, Croatia – A recent viral video has ignited discussions about the rising cost of traditional Balkan pastries, specifically burek, in popular tourist destinations. Local TikTok creator 'dua liza' posted a review of 'Holy Burek' in Dubrovnik, where a single veal burek is priced at 9 euros. The video, titled 'Albanian Woman VS the Most Expensive Burek in the Balkans,' quickly garnered attention for its candid comparison of prices. In her review, the content creator expressed initial shock at the price, stating, "We used to buy a whole tray of four bureks for 9 euros." However, she praised the quality of the veal burek, describing it as "really good" and highlighting its freshness and crispiness, attributing this to the fact that the dough is made and baked on-site. "They make it right here on the spot and immediately put it in the oven," she noted, contrasting it with other bakeries that might pre-prepare and refrigerate the pastry. Her experience with the cheese burek was also largely positive, calling it "perfectly greasy" and "crispy," though she added, "it lacks salt in the cheese." Despite the price point, she ultimately gave the cheese burek an 8/10 and the veal burek a 9/10. The reviewer concluded by suggesting that tourists visiting Croatia should try 'Holy Burek,' even humorously implying that a well-known personality, Speed, should have been taken there instead of for ćevapi. The video has sparked a broader conversation among viewers about the economic realities of local delicacies in high-demand tourist areas.
