Wow! What a find this place was. When wandering around the old town of Split on our second evening we stumbled across this tiny restaurant nestled in a back street. Hidden from the rat race and tourists who aren’t willing to explore this wonderful small fish restaurant serving local Dalmatian cuisine. It was completely full when we arrived weRead more

It’s been a week of two halves. The first half was spent at home doing normal foodie things and visiting “local to me” foodie venues. The second half has been based in Split, Croatia. A much needed holiday to celebrate the end of term and the start of the summer break. Let’s start with theRead more
