My family is from Slovenia and I have been to Cro and Slo several times. We moved to WA about a year ago and it turns out this market has a lot of the goodies that we enjoy while we are over there. Lots of Milka and Kinder products "Happy Hippo". They have frozen Burek that you take home and bake that is actually really really good. Ivar, fefferoni peppers, Fanta Euro style,............ all kinds of good things. the location is really random but worth it. If your in the area you should give it a try.

While I was on a trip with some of my Bulgarian friends, one of them pulled out a jar with a very familiar label of my most beloved Lutenica and a package of waffers called "Borovetc ".
I was overjoyed when they informed me that there is a store in Lynnood that sells a lot of Bulgarian and other Eastern European country products.
I searched online for more information on their hours of operation and since I couldnt find any I decided to just drive out there.
I got there right when they were opening the store and I walked in the tiny
little retail space.
Browsing through the many familiar packages I felt excitement. Finally there is a place in town where I can go grab some of my favorite Bulgarian cookies, and we no longer have to rely on smuggled cured meats and jars of home made tasty goodness.
Thank you for openning a store that makes us feel like home.
The Lynnwood location address and work hours are :
18904 Highway 99. #M. Lynwood,WA. 98036
Tel / Fax. (425) 771 - 8885

Oh, Balkan Market, how I love thee.
It's like a stroll through my childhood every time I go there. I can't help but get bagfuls of stuff (mostly candy) and spend tons of money. As a Serbian in Seattle, I don't get a lot of chance to eat Serbian food unless I cook it myself. But even then there seems to always be an ingredient missing. And you can find it right here at the Balkan Market. The staff is so friendly and as soon as you start talking to them in Serbian/Bosnian/Croatian, they get even friendlier!
I swear by Vegeta - the spice mix and I cook everything with it. If you're from the Balkans you'll know what I mean. If you're not, here are a few recommendations: Ajvar (roasted red pepper spread), Kajmak (milky fatty goodness), Sudzuk (heavenly bosnian sausage), Kesten dessert (chestnut puree candy bar), Suvi Vrat (cured meat that's out of this world) and of course Euro Krem (hazelnut/milk spread). OH and they also carry the Elderflower & Lemon Fanta! It's in a blue bottle and it beats any other flavors.
I could write for hours. But I won't. I just have to say: thank you, Balkan Market! Thank you! -

This seems to be the only place that I can find Milka bars, Jaffa cakes and Mikado chocolates. We went a little crazy our first time here--picking up Eurocrem and Napolitanko wafers...but where else would you find it? The gentleman that works here is super friendly--giving me other suggestions and letting me smell the (delicious) home made sausage links that are in the refrigerated containers. I'll definitely be picking those up the next time I BBQ. If you've been looking for sweets and treats that you haven't been able to find elsewhere, this is your last stop in Seattle!
