While I was in Belgrade I visited The House of Flowers, Tito’s Mausoleum. On entering the museum and while buying my entrance ticket I was excited to spy a copy of Tito’s Cookbook.
The book, written by Anja Drulovic is a compilation of Tito’s favourite recipes, alongside images of him meeting international dignitaries including Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II and the Kennedys, famous actors such as Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, and even ruthless dictator, Saddam Hussein.
It’s certainly an interesting read, with some fantastic photographs. Priced at 3000 Serbian Dinar I think it’s well worth buying for those with an interest in food and history.

I also saw Tito’s cookbook at the giftstore at Tito’s Mausoleum this past weekend. I really wanted to get it, but my bags are already quite a bit overweight. I figured “Hey, no problem. I’ll just order it online when I get back to Canada”.
Now I can’t find it! :(
Oh no! Have you tried ordering from http://www.yu4you.com/items/en/knjiga/item_844.html or contacting Laguna press directly? There are a couple on Amazon that are used copies. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Titos-Cookbook-Anja-Drulovic/dp/8674364772/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1300740094&sr=8-1
Hope that helps. It’s a fab book. Really interesting. Great photography too. I had the same dilemma, to buy or not to buy. So I can sympathise.
