FAVOURITE DALMATIAN SPECIALTY.


Freshly caught fish right from the Adriatic and sold at a very loud & very fishy - fish market, or peskarija  as the Dalmatians say.  

Cleaned, salted and grilled over hot coals in a traditional brick oven. 

Served bathed in home-made olive oil and sprinkled with parsley (freshly picked from the garden - or like today, dug out from under the snow!) and with finely chopped garlic.  

Accompanied by a glass of wine and freshly baked bread this is not only our favourite dish, but what most Dalmatians eat and is an absolute must try for all non-vegan and non-vegetarians.  A tip: It's best when it's made by a local.


There's a catchy little saying I quite like they say here on the coast:

"A fish bathes three times: first in the sea, then in olive oil and last in wine".  


Indeed it did.
