Are you asking questions or giving information?
I thought I was doing both...
We loved the restaurant "Daca" (pronounced Dacha) in Belgrade. Traditional Serbian food, outstanding service - extremely friendly. Great atmosphere, great prices. We took a bus from the city center, but it was a very short ride and easy to handle.
We also loved an Italian place on Kralja Petra, about 2 doors down from our hotel (Hotel Royal). One of my friends said they made the best pizza before our trip and I thought, "yeah, right...in Serbia?" but their pizza margherita is excellent!
Also loved Monument for the best salads - really fantastic produce and many, many selections. Nice atmosphere, too.
Of course,
Belgrade fortress,
Belgrade pedestrian zone,
Zemun old town,
Temple of Saint Sava,
Some photos of this is on link: http://www.tt-group.net/english.htm
Any recommendations for a central hotel in Belgrade? Preferably under $80/night.
