On the eastern edge of Baščaršija, in rustic teahouse Džirlo with interior lined with wood, you can relax and have a cup of nice, bubbly, slow cooked Bosnian coffee that is served in copper pots with the inevitable sherbet (sweet juice) and rahat-lokum (Bosnian sweet). Besides the traditional Bosnian coffee, you can also drink salep (warm beverage made with milk and cinnamon), as well as a large selection of teas that someone from the tea house will be happy to recommend. The owners are wonderful Husein and Dijana Džirlo who will make sure to explain you all the charms of traditional drinking of coffee and tell you how Carsija breaths with a smile. If you are lucky enough to find your place on the porch, you can enjoy the view of the Sebilj, the surrounding mountains and almost mystical view of the oldest part of Sarajevo.
