Chef Mishlav came to Bulgaria years ago.

But before opening a Bulgarian restaurant, he chose to truly get to know the country first – not as a visitor, but as a student of its cuisine.

He travels through the villages, meets the people who still preserve the authentic recipes today, cooks side by side with local families and discovers flavours that rarely leave the homes in which they were born.

This is how OMAYA was born – a restaurant inspired by the richness of Bulgaria’s regions, seasonal produce and the culinary heritage passed down from generation to generation.

OMAYA is more than a restaurant.

It is a journey through Bulgaria, told through its flavours.
