In the centre of Novi Sad is an old decommisioned tram-car that has been turned into a cafe – although unfortunately yet again soooo many people smoking inside, and high steps with no handrails, meant that I had to sit outside… but it was a lovely day so all was well… …
I was early for a meeting with my lawyer re my residency and business permits here, so decided to have lunch at Macchiato Kuca – a beautiful place that has both restaurant and 4-star accommodation.
