Panevezys: A Culinary Haven In Lithuania

Panevezys is a unique destination in Lithuania which boasts profound cultural and historic heritage and is also known as a culinary hot pot for beer and confectionery enthusiasts. If you’ve never been to Lithuania, it’s time to explore its cuisine with Eatagram!

Though local restaurants offer quite a number of international cuisines, it’s better to taste authentic Lithuanian food while you’re in the country.

As an appetizer, we would go with a meat and cheese board, sometimes, but not necessarily featuring  kiaulės ausis, fermented pig ears. This appetizer goes perfectly with local handcrafted beers from the city’s brewery.

Seafood takes a significant part in the dining tradition of Panevezys due to the country’s coastal location. Baltic herring is probably the most popular of all the assortment of freshly caught fish. It tastes divine, be it smoked, pickled, grilled or roasted. Zuvienè would be a perfect choice for those who prefer fish soups.

Panevezys offers an array of hearty meat and vegetable dishes. We absolutely recommend potato dumplings stuffed with meat called cepelinai. If you prefer juicy steaks, go with Venison steak, a go-to for both locals and visitors.

Bread is the cornerstone of Lithuanian cuisine. In Panevezys, fresh dark rye bread juoda duona is enjoyed with almost any specialty. Bread is also used as an ingredient for snacks like kepta duona, fried bread with garlic.

If you’re a pastry enthusiast, be sure to try kibinai. You’ll fall in love with these delicious meat filled pies.

For those with a sweet tooth, local coffee shops offer traditional Lithuanian desserts. Take a chance and try Lithuanian authentic Šakotis cake, the unique spit cake. Don’t forget to accompany it with freshly brewed coffee.
