How Peka Is Cooked

Peka describes cooking under a heavy bell-shaped lid, where heat stays around the ingredients and roasts them slowly.

Why It Is Ordered Ahead

Peka needs time, ingredient preparation, and agreement on quantity, so the menu treats it as a special order. Bistro Putnik lists it as an order at least 24 hours ahead with agreement on the number of guests.
