Pork ear as a Bulgarian appetizer


In the Czech Republic, pork ears are not a typical form of appetizers in restaurants, but their consumption is much more common abroad. In Spain, I encountered this dish on the menu of two Michelin-starred establishments. In Bulgaria, they can also be found, and are a popular delicacy, especially for consuming with alcohol.

Before consumption, the pork ear is always boiled first. In the Staria Chinar restaurant in Varna, it is then coated in a spice mixture and grilled until crispy. It is served with a garlic sauce. This snack costs approximately 4.40 EUR.

Accommodation Varna
You can get great accommodation at a fantastic price at the Bolero Suites, just a short distance from the center of Varna. The rooms are clean, and it's quiet at night. Excellent value for your money. Additionally, you'll be just a stone's throw away from the excellent restaurant Staria Chinar! I stayed there last in October 2022 and was very satisfied.
