’Čardak’ has 200 seats placed inside and outside. Inside, next to a big bar, there are a few booths placed on beams under curb rafters, based a little lower for the sake of better communication with guests. The warmth and comfort is completed by old traditional rugs and embroidered wall draperies.
Outside, above a big porch cobbled with old bricks, there are arched terraces with pillars. From that place, there is a wonderfull view on the watermill placed above the little lake that is situated between palette fence and the porch.
- ’We could have placed more tables, but we wanted our guests to feel more relaxed and to make the space ’breathe’-Milan says.
Tables and chairs are made of wood, but they are different and skillfully combined. Walls are deliberately bumpy and are covered with various old household articles and cupboards full of dishes and cutlery. Some corners are also decorated with old radios so called ’lampasi’. Plates are ceramic as well as pepper and salt pots, napkin holders.
The old half-glass door with a colourfull curtain divide toilet from the hall whereas you can enter male and female toilet through an old door that creaks a little due to its authenticity. However, hygiena and sanitation are excellent.
There is a parking space for about 20 vehicles in front of the yard gate, and guests can see their cars every moment.
There is no live music in the restaurant. However, some specific orchestras have played in the restaurant several times when the guests insisted on it, but the restaurant has got carefully chosen, quality music from public address. To create every day music indulgence, accomplished connoisseurs have at their disposal a collection of 2000 CDs of old folk, traditional music and tamburica music that can be listened to loud enough without disturbing normal conversation and dialogues.
