Go eat here. Konoba Lambik We liked it so much we drove back the next night for more.
One of the honest to goodness best places I have ever eaten in the world. Chef goes to the garden and picks the herbs then puts them in your food
We ordered the steak on the second occasion. It's friggin massive, like something from the flintstones. Fed me and the wife.
It's a very small place, easily missed and a party of 20 would fill the place inside but there's plenty of outdoor seating
we sat under blankets in the lemon grove the second time as they had a party of german cyclists in and the place was busy.
Great welcome, great food and plenty of it. I said I would pass on the recommendation if I ever heard of anyone going to visit.
I even kept his business card, it's on my fridge. I hope to return. There's also a place very near where we stayed called
Mr and Mrs Jones also well worth a visit. We ate there a few times as it was walking distance from our air bnb apartment.
They gave us free drinks on our last night and some home made lemon curd to bring home with us. Lovely people
there too. It's hard to explain but they have a way of making you feel like a personal guest and not just a bum on a seat.
Generally we were surprised at the high quality of the food in Hvar and oddly the importance still given to the family unit.
Which if you happen to be there on a Sunday you will witness in spades as they are a very church-centric people.
Sunday being the day to see and be seen. The people remind me of Italians in some ways. They seem heavily
influneced by Italian chic and cafe culture and you're never far away from somewhere that sells oodles of different
flavours of authentic gelato. I'm definitely keen to return. Your money went a long way there too although as always,
do watch out for the taxi drivers. Our host arranged a car for us so we never had to worry about that.
You'll see some properly decrepid old yugos, renaults and citroens still going strong, it's kind of like they are in a transitional
phase where old things and new are trying to find a place alongside one another. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 6 years, 330 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
