I did grow up with dishes very similar to this kind of meal and let me tell you, that looks like something from my grandmas kitchen table. Well done!
Lunch at my grandparents house was always something like this:
Fresh crusty bread
A meat: smoked ham, sausage, cold cuts, head cheese or pate
Something pickled: Beets, roasted peppers, cucumbers, etc...
A spread: Ajvar, horseradish sauce, apricot or plum preserves (usually spread on the bread)
A cheese: Kashkaval, Feta
Whatever fresh veggies were available for picking in the garden.
A tall glass of Kefir
The possibilities are endless
Looks like I need to stop by a couple delis soon, this gave me a hankerin'!
