Hearty breakfast at the flee market: Restaurant Bonk (28. April 2019)

Somehow I had the idea of having some hearty breakfast so I went for the “Brit Burger by Mason (Mason bun, 100% baby beef, aged 40 days (180gr), lettuce, barbeque sauce, cheddar cheese, onion, aceto balsamico)” (62 HRK) which wasn’t bad but the meat could have been a bit less cooked. The “bulgur salad” (15 […]

A deserved Michelin star but with room for improvement: Restaurant Noel (27. April 2019)

I had read about the Noel getting its first Michelin star a couple of weeks back and I was super curious to try it out. And it all started quite nicely with a lovely selection of different breads. And a variety of butter starting with lard to regular salted butter and nut butter. Given, I […]

Waiters with an attitude: Swanky Monkey Garden Bar (27. April 2019)

The ‘Swanky Monkey Garden Bar’ is actually quite a lovely place. You have to know where it is as it is not entirely easy to spot the entrance but once you do, it is worth going in as there is a little terrace in the green which has a nice, simple, modernist design and it’s […]

Lovely view but average food: Restaurant Kavkaz (27. April 2019)

The Restaurant Kavkaz is located close to the opera in Zagreb and actually offers a nice view onto it if you manage to get a space outside. The service is friendly and was – at first – rather efficient. But then it took them quite a while to actually serve what we had ordered. I […]

12. July 2014: Hula Hula Beach Club

Usually, you have to walk to the Hula Hula Beach Club from Hvar City but as we came from Carpe Diem Beach we persuaded the coxswain to ship us to Hula Hula Beach Club direclty (for 20 KRN, approx. CHF 3.20 per person). The club is starting to fill up around 5pm and the party […]

12. July 2014: Carpe Diem Beach Stipanska

You can reach Carpe Diem Beach Stipanska by boat from Hvar – the trip takes about 10 minutes and costs 20 KRN. Once you arrive it feels like you really reached a place where everything is about the good life. But the good life obviously comes with a price – if you want to have […]

12. July 2014: Caffe Bar Pjaca

My first meal on Hvar was definitely not Croatian food but “Club Sandwiches with French fries” (80 KRN, approx. CHF 12.80) which was average. The amount of meat was generous but the quality was disappointing. On the other hand, the French fries were at least nicely crispy and not stroppy. If you are looking for […]

12. July 2014: Cafe Bar Fro

What better way to start into the weekend than with a hearty “Fisherman’s Breakfast” (52 KRN, approx. CHF 8.30) comprised of a sandwich with marinated fish, natural water (0,25L), olives, and a glass of white wine and a double espresso (16 KRN, approx. CHF 2.55)? Absolutely correct – there is no better way. Even if […]
