My favorite brunch places with big, shady gardens to cool off during the hot summer days

One of the first places opened by Russian immigrants who left Russia for Belgrade. Now one of the many. At the beginning it was a meeting point for people who settled in Belgrade and called it a home and now a very popular restaurant, especially for brunch.

A small district, located in the center of Belgrade, right next to famous bohemian quarter, Skadarlija, lays Cetinjska, a place the government is planning to tear down for a few years now, and naturally nothing's happening. And while big shots are deciding its fate, Cetinjska hosts some of the best parties in the city in the number of bars located there.
