Croatia
1. June 2014: Restoran Tač
This place is truly a local gem – and frankly, you have no chance of finding it if you are not told so by a local. And luckily, I was told to visit this place by friend who happens to live in Zagreb. After I had a rather annoying afternoon with my not-so-favourite flight carrier, […]
1. June 2014: La Bodega Bar
La Bodega is located in the Bogovićeva Ulica – the street where people go to do people watching. The La Bodega is nicely furnished, modern, and allows you to sit outside even when it is raining as the place is covered and has perfectly placed heaters too. The waiter is friendly and helpful and brings […]
31. May 2014: Restoran Agava
The “aubergine tart with pesto, young cheese and tomato coulis” (45 KRN, approx. CHF 6.25) was a very refreshing and light start into the evening. The cheese is creamy and soft providing the perfect combination with the aubergines. The “Traditional Croatian pasta ‘Fuzi’ with black truffles” (60 KRN, approx. CHF 9.65) was a last minute […]
31. May 2014: Restoran 5/4 – Peta Cetvrtina
This restaurant was also recommended by my Croatian friend and it was another good recommendation. As the one before it was located a bit outside of the city centre so you have to walk a bit (approx. 15 mins) to get there but it is worth it. It is not easy to find as the […]
30. May 2014: Restoran Trilogija
My experience at the Restoran Trilogija was quite an interesting one. At first I was absolutely disappointed but with time (and more wine) the impression got better and better. But first things first. I had booked the table in advance (which is a necessity as they are basically fully booked every day) which ensured me […]
30. May 2014: VIP Travel Caffe
There is something called “spica” in the Croatian culture which basically means (freely translated) “to see and to be seen” which is apparently the favourite hobby of Croatians on a Saturday morning. However, there are particular places where one can do this. The Bogovićeva area is the perfect place to do so as there is […]
30. May 2014: Restoran Bistro Apetit
This place was recommended to me by a Croatian friend living in Zagreb (I met a couple of months ago in Vienna) and I must say that his recommendations really are to be followed. The Bistro Apetit is – according to his information – currently the number 1 restaurant in Zagreb and I must say […]
30. May – 1. June 2014: Kaptol Restoran @ The Westin Zagreb
Breakfast at an SPG hotel is always more or less the same – and again this time the breakfast selection was good as always ranging from cold cuts … … to fresh fruit … … offering various juices (including something called bilberry juice I have never tried before in my life and which is quite […]
