The gastronomic stories that Kajak has started to share have increased travelers' appetite to travel more often and discover new places that hold stories worth hearing.
Such a unique story belongs to "Shape." For some of you, the name "Shape" is already quite well-known, and for those encountering it for the first time, we are pleased to introduce you to yet another hospitality establishment worth visiting.
Behind the story of the "Shapе" tavern stands Žan Shapе. A man who, over the years, has received unwavering support from his family. The tavern has survived since 1982, enduring many good and difficult times, including the crisis caused by the pandemic and much more.
Žan says that the "Shapе" story was born in Krushevo and represents a business started by his father. He shares with Kajak that his father received immense support from his wife and his mother, who, at that time, was already a retired chef.
His father's strong desire to open a tavern was crucial in starting their hospitality story. The first tavern was opened in the Krushevo Old Bazaar, which is still in operation today. In addition to the establishment in the bazaar, they now have another beautiful hospitality venue in a mountain style, located on the ski slopes. This new location is surrounded by stunning nature and offers a magnificent view.
Žan says that to succeed in this business, it's not only the appearance of the establishment that matters, but also what is offered. In his case, food comes first, as well as hospitality.
Today, "Shapе" is famous for its sausages prepared in the traditional Krushevo style, kare-kebabs, Komit-style pleskavica, Krushevo's "Shapе" stew pot, the "Ala Shapе" salad, and a variety of other specialties.
Žan adds that a special feature of their food is that it is prepared with natural spices, which are already well-known to their regular guests.
