You can't really go to Varna now without visiting at least one of the shopping malls. The chances are that you will take a look around the Varna Mall. Whether you like the style of the building or not, you have to be impressed by the size and the glamour.
Most of the eating places are located near the top of the building, so that you can look out over the city whilst you eat. The Australian restaurant “Fancy” is no exception. The restaurant looks classy and expensive but, although the food isn’t cheap, the prices are very reasonable for a high-class restaurant in such a prime location.
The décor is stylish and chique although (strangely) there are no pictures of the Sydney Opera House, no Didgery-Dos or anything that one might expect to find in restaurant selling Australian cuisine. There are oddly-shaped sofas with interesting patterns. I was unsure whether they were supposed to look like zebras or tree bark. (I know that zebras don’t come from Australia, but maybe the owners think they do.)
There is an extensive menu, offering both standard “international cuisine” and special Australian dishes. The Australian menu included crocodile and kangaroo steaks. Andy and I had chicken with plums and sweet chilli. It was served with rice and was very nicely presented and absolutely delicious – surprisingly spicy. Gaz decided to go Italian instead and had lasagna. This too was very tasty and, although he wasn’t too keen on the Lutenitza (Bulgarian tomato sauce) that was served with it.
Meals for the three of us, with two or three drinks each, came to 48 Bulgarian Leva.
